We’re drowning in labels. Liberal. Conservative. Pro-this. Anti-that. In today’s world, everything — from the coffee in your cup to the shoes on your feet — has been politicized. And once a label sticks, people stop seeing each other as human and start seeing only “the other side.” That’s how dehumanization creeps in, and it’s tearing teams, families, and friendships apart.
But your dental office doesn’t have to mirror the chaos. In this bold episode, I pull back the curtain on why everything feels so divisive, how social resonance shapes every conversation, and what history has to teach us today. We’ll look at how this shows up with patients and teams in 2025, and why Patrick Lencioni is right — conflict isn’t the enemy. Conflict with trust creates growth. Conflict without trust is just politics.
You’ll walk away with practical reset statements you can use with patients and teammates, a framework for pushing back against dehumanization, and five concrete steps to build a culture where respect, sincerity, love, and trust win the day.
Because at the end of the day, politics may divide the world — but in your practice, people must always come first.
