b"I gave Manuela Rodrigues one task: to reduce the stress levels of Dentists and the Dental team who listen to this episode.\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nhttps://youtu.be/cNY_2QLWTuI\\nWith Mindful.Dentistry Manuela\\n\\n\\n\\nI know what you're thinking...the whole positive mental attitude thing goes straight out of the window when a file has separated or the palatal root of the upper molar has been swallowed by the sinus.\\n\\n\\n\\nThis is why I wanted Manuela to make this a highly relevant to the daily stressful scenarios we face. How can we make our profession less stressful, Manuela?!\\n\\n\\n\\nI pitched to her 3 different scenarios:\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nWhen things are just not going right at work - think of TOUGH treatments/patients\\n\\n\\n\\nLitigation. Having a case over your head is one of the most stressful, gut-wrenching, confidence-destroying experiences a Dentist can have.\\n\\n\\n\\nRunning late. I am SOOOO guilty of this and is the number 1 daily cause of stress for me!\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nAs Manuela promised, you can get 25% off her Mindfulness in Dentistry training by using the code 'protrusive'\\n\\n\\n\\nDo follow Manuela @mindful.dentistry on Instagram\\n\\n\\n\\nIf you enjoyed this episode, you will like 10 Habits of Highly Successful Dentists\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\nClick below for full episode transcript:\\n\\n\\n\\nJaz's Introduction: Dentistry is a highly stressful profession, so you have to be able also to balance it with investing on your mental health, investing on your mental well being with things that better prepare you for the highly stressful days.\\n\\n\\n\\nJaz\\u2019s Introduction:Hello Protruserati, I'm Jaz Gulati, and welcome to another episode of the Protrusive Dental Podcast. Today is going to be really monumental, we're talking about stress. This is an episode I hope will change your life. Let's face it guys, we're part of a really stressful profession. The thing that really brings it home to me is that actually, every profession can be difficult.\\n\\n\\n\\nLike, even ask the guy who works at McDonald's. He will tell you his job is stressful. Right? Or ask the hairdresser when she's got a long queue of customers and she's got a really picky client who she's cutting hair for. Then she will tell you that, oh my goodness, this is a lot of stress. My profession is the most stressful.\\n\\n\\n\\nSo everyone has a case and an argument for their profession being the most stressful. So, in dentistry are we really such a stressful profession? Well, I think so. Let me tell you why, right? I listened to a podcast episode who my good friend, Payman Langroudi and Prav Solanki run, Dental Leaders Podcast, which by the way, I was on recently, so if you haven't checked that one out, do check it out.\\n\\n\\n\\nAnd he had someone called Tom Youngs, who was a dentist not even just a dentist, a phenomenal dentist, like a really amazing clinician who posted lots of YouTube videos lots of great clinical cases, and you'd think, wow, what a great dentist, but then he left our profession. He started to work for a, I believe it was a, a startup, like a tech startup.\\n\\n\\n\\nAnd then he had a few years with them and he's, I believe he's moved on perhaps from there. I'm trying to remember that podcast episode I listened to, but the long and short of it is that he has been a dentist and he's experienced lots of other sort of professions as well. And then on the podcast, he says that.\\n\\n\\n\\nDentistry is by far the most stressful profession. So that's one example I can give you about but you don't need to know that, right? You don't need me to convince you that our job is super stressful. Let's face it, right? As Lincoln Harris said in many episodes ago on the podcast that we're a surgical specialty and really it should take about 11 or 12 years to train us like in the medical fields.\\n\\n\\n\\nBut we only get 4, 5, 6 years of dental school and we come out of dental school with not so much confidence and not so much experience. So we're kind of learning on the job as we go along. It's the truth and it can lead to very stressful moments in our career. So that's why I've got Dr Manuela Rodrigues,"
