#96: You Don’t Need More Time. You Need Better Tools w/ Lorie Streeter

Ever feel like your dental team is running around all day... but nothing’s really moving forward? You’re not alone.

In this episode, I sit down with Lorie Streeter of MaxAssist to tackle one of the most overused (and misunderstood) excuses in dentistry: “We’re just too busy.”

(Spoiler alert: It’s not a time problem...it’s a tool problem. And we’re here to prove it.)

Because when your team is buried in busywork, marketing, patient experience, and growth all fall to the bottom of the to-do list...right under “figure out why the printer hates us.”

Together, we’ll unpack:

• Why “time” is the most mismanaged resource in your practice
• The sneaky time-wasters killing your team’s creativity (and morale)
• How automation + delegation can give your office manager their brain back
• What to actually do with the time you free up (hint: it’s not just more chart notes)
• How to turn happy patients into mini-marketers
• How “doing less” might actually help you grow faster

Don’t worry. Lorie’s got practical strategies (and we’ve got jokes) to help you reclaim time, boost productivity, and make room for what really matters: your patients, your team, and your vision for growth.

Tune in, laugh a little, and walk away with real tools to help your practice do more of what actually works.
