Replacing one addiction with another?

While working on a project about addiction, Eva realizes she went from drinking and smoking to a food addiction. But she’s not even sure what her “thing” is now, which is… a little terrifying. Meanwhile, Kami loses some weight—not exactly from a wellness plan, but courtesy of stress and no sleep. Hey, a win’s a win. Eva + Kami are two old-ish moms with little kids confronting our reasons for being obese while losing weight on semaglutide and roasting our past selves. Sarcasm is our happy place. Are you confronting the same challenges? We’d love to hear your story. Send an email to podcasts@theaxis.io.

Do GLP-1s Help With Binge Eating?

Ashley tried everything. She tried all the diets: Weight Watchers, Nutrisystem, SlimFast, Houston Methodist Medical Weight Management program. Even after a gastric sleeve, her weight climbed back up to 320 lbs. Going to therapy for binge eating was good, but still didn’t help her lose weight. In 2024, exhausted from trying to lose weight yet again, she thought, “screw it, if I’m going to be fat, why not just get rid of my double chin?” So she decided to have neck lift surgery and found a plastic surgeon, and that’s where she discovered GLP-1s by accident. Not long after that, she started on the medication and the rest is history.

Special List #4: Your Dental Brand Is Not a Logo with Dr. Rob Ritter

Dr. Rob Ritter has spent decades proving that dentistry is so much more than drilling and filling. It’s leadership, branding, and running a small business that actually thrives. Since the early ’90s, he’s watched the profession change and has built a career on mastering his craft, protecting his brand, and never lowering his standards. His course, The Protocol, bridges the gap between what dental school teaches and what the real world demands. He’s blunt about the challenges facing today’s dentists—student debt, insurance headaches, and the steep learning curve of business ownership—and why mentorship is the key to growth. Dr. Ritter breaks down why strong GP-specialist communication drives better patient outcomes, why branding is about every touchpoint (not just your logo), and why a cohesive, empowered team is your best business asset. For him, excellence means blending clinical skill with business savvy and protecting your reputation at all costs, because your name is your brand, and that’s the one thing you can’t get back. GUEST Rob Ritter, DMD Dentist & Co-Owner of The Protocol For over 27 years, Dr. Rob Ritter has been a restorative dentist in Jupiter, Florida. He’s spent thousands of hours on continuing education, which has helped his practice flourish. For more than two decades, Dr. Ritter has also lectured nationally and internationally, sharing his expertise with other dentists. He's a graduate of both the Kois Center and Spear Education and holds fellowships and memberships in numerous prestigious dental organizations.

Before the Explant: After 21 Years With Breast Implants, I’m Ready to Say Goodbye

After 21 years with implants, Jennifer has reached her limits with the pain, scar tissue, and breasts that stretched far beyond what she ever imagined. What started as 420cc implants have grown from a D cup to triple Ds, leaving her hunched over with aching joints. At first, she considered swapping them out for smaller implants, but during her consultation, breast implant removal expert Dr. Luke Swistun reassured her that she had plenty of natural tissue to work with. Simply downsizing would mean another surgery down the road, and her own tissue could be sculpted into a beautiful, natural shape without any implants. That was all it took to change her mind and move forward with an explant with auto-augmentation. Jennifer is now looking forward to lighter, more natural breasts and the freedom to finally wear tube tops and spaghetti straps with confidence. With her sister Laura by her side, she shares her journey to show other women the power of being informed and choosing what feels right for their body.

The 1 Simple Policy That Will Instantly Improve Your Cancellation Rate

Not having a clear financial policy is asking for trouble. To help protect your schedule and convert more patients, Andrea Watkins and Alli Petriella share exactly what to include in your financial policy, where to introduce it, and how to talk about it in a way that builds trust, not conflict. Including an expiration date on quotes adds gentle urgency, encourages commitment, and protects you if your prices change down the road. And when it comes to cancellations, vague policies open the door for excuses. A firm, consistent approach helps patients take their appointments (and your time) seriously. Find out why bundling fees simplifies decisions, why exceptions almost always backfire, and how clear communication from the start keeps your schedule full and your patients committed. Whether it’s reducing no-shows or reinforcing the value of your provider’s time, a strong financial policy does more than protect the practice—it keeps everything running smoothly. GUEST Allison Petriella Plastic Surgery | MedSpa Consultant & Sales Expert Alli is a results-driven SAAS sales professional and consultant with 12+ years of experience helping healthcare and aesthetics practices grow through technology, strategy, and process optimization.
