    The AWP: More Than the Refraction

    Aaron Werner welcomes Dr. Ben Thayil for a thoughtful conversation on refraction, identity, leadership, and the evolving role of the modern optometrist. Together they explore whether too much weight is placed on refraction, how doctors can unintentionally tie their identity to one task in the exam lane, and why the real value of care goes far beyond a prescription. From patient problem-solving and practice systems to change management and internal confidence, this episode looks at what truly defines an optometrist and the lasting impact doctors have on patients’ lives.   ---------------------- Go to MacuHealth.com and use the coupon code PODCAST2024 at checkout for special discounts Let's Connect!

    AWP: Building a Better Practice, One Pillar at a Time

    "Aaron sits down with Dr. Kyle Klute to talk about what it really takes to build a stronger practice. They discuss why being busy is not the same as being effective, how better systems lead to better patient care, and why lasting growth comes from intentional mindset, clear metrics, and step-by-step implementation rather than quick fixes. It is a practical conversation about building pillars like myopia management, dry eye, and glaucoma care in a way that actually works.

    TVoL: Coaching as Leadership: The Difference Between Giving Advice and Coaching

    In this episode, we take an honest look at one of the habits many of us developed long before we ever became leaders; the instinct to give advice. For years I believed that being helpful meant having the answer. But what I’ve learned is that constantly giving advice may solve a momentary problem while quietly creating long-term dependence. Coaching, on the other hand, invites people to think, to grow, and to take ownership of their own solutions. If you’ve ever felt exhausted from being the person everyone comes to for answers or frustrated that the same problems keep showing up in your practice, this conversation will challenge the way you lead and offer a different path forward.

    The AWP: Beyond Costco Famous: Katie Chu on Purpose, Noise, and Bold Moves

    Dr. Katie Chu shares her journey from 30 years serving an immigrant community in the San Gabriel Valley to rediscovering purpose after COVID, divorce, and isolation. She breaks down how she “cleared the noise” through therapy tools, healthier friendships, and firmer boundaries—and how one bold decision created a ripple effect into a breakout year of creativity. Katie also unpacks the heart behind Chewie’s Bold Move, the music and lullabies tied to her books, and her big vision for a future “living masterclass” leadership retreat at sea.
