What if the thing your practice is missing isn’t more effort but structure? Dr. Lona brings Dr. Rachel Hovey back into the conversation to challenge the quiet chaos many teams are operating in, where busyness replaces clarity and ideas never translate into execution. As they unpack the role of quarterly meetings, the dialogue reveals a deeper tension between avoidance and leadership, where the outcomes most owners want are often sitting on the other side of the structure they resist. Together, they ground the conversation in real practice application, showing how vision, accountability, and team involvement, when done consistently, can shift a practice from reactive to intentional growth.
