Everyday Practices Dental Podcast


May 15, 2019

“How can you help heal the healers?” Dentists pour so much of themselves into caring for their patients, their practice, and their team, that they forget to take care of themselves. Today’s guest, Dr. Bethany Piziks, is a practicing dentist and life-long horse woman. An epiphany in 2001 led her to look for a way to bring her love of horses and the peace she finds with them to coaching dentists and their teams through difficult times. Dr. Piziks talks about how horses force people to be present and authentic, and by working with them teams learn how to drop old patterns, pains, and anxiety to bring clarity and move forward. Today, Dr. Piziks joins Vicki for a discussion about:

  • The psychology of “gestalt” and being aware
  • Real-life stories about how dental teams overcame their internal challenges through working with horses
  • Hyperfocus, control, and perfection: the good and the bad
