  • GETS ME AMPED!!

    My husband is currently in dental school right now, and literally just started a month ago - so he is super super new. I was an office manager at an ortho office for the last 4 1/2 years, trying to learn the ropes of starting a practice, owning practice, and all that comes with it, for when my husband was out of school. This podcast has taught me more than those 4 1/2 years of working at the office! Also, it gets us so so freaking excited. It truly makes us want to buy a practice before he’s ev... more

  • Life changing!!

    I have been listening to TLP for years. I was waiting until I purchased my own practice so that I could start doing coaching. I bought my practice and started working with Steve 18 months ago. My life will never be the same. I was able to achieve my three year goal in the first year and I am on track in my second year to surpass my initial five year goal. Steve opened my eyes to see that the sky is the limit! I will be forever grateful for his help and can’t say enough good about TLP!
