WELCOME DENTAL OFFICE MANAGERS

MY NAME IS BETH HEILMAN AND I’M ON A MISSION TO HELP DENTAL OFFICE MANAGERS CREATE WILDLY SUCCESSFUL CAREERS AND A MEANINGFUL PERSONAL LIFE WITHOUT SACRIFICING ONE FOR THE OTHER.

I help you get out of survival mode and figure out what actually needs to change - at work and in your life and use that to handle the real stuff you deal with every day: the endless to-do lists, the difficult conversations, the decisions, the people problems, and the work that never seems to be done.

Then we turn that in to a plan that actually works for you and your life.

Because the goal isn't just survive the week. It's to feel good about the work you're doing, have a life you love outside of it and finally feel like you're getting somewhere.

So, instead of working this hard just to keep your head above water, you can run your day, do work you're proud of, go home with something left in the stank and start getting ahead.

WHO DO I LOVE TO WORK WITH?

I work with dental office managers who really care about their practice, their team and doing a great job. They want to grow, they’re willing to do things differently when there’s a better way, and they want systems that make the practice run better without everything being so hard.

Because sometimes you don't need another Google search. You need someone who actually gets how hard this job can be. And you want people in their corner—people who get what it’s like to be the office manager, who you can ask questions, bounce ideas off of, and learn from along the way.

We’ll be a powerful partnership if you…

This probably isn't what you're looking for if you…

Love what you do and want to be really freaking good at it.
Want to lead your practice and your team, not spend every day putting out fires and checking things off a never-ending list.
Know there has to be a better way to run things-with systems that work and don't require you to keep everything in your head.
Want to get better at the parts of the job nobody ever taught you-the people, the decisions, the conversations, the time, all the gray areas that come with being the one in charge.
Want to get ahead for once instead of always working on whatever needs your attention right this second.
Would love to have other office managers in your corner who get the job, have good ideas and can say, "Here's what worked for us.".
Have big ideas for your practice, your career and your life-and you're ready to actually do something with them.
Want to be great at this job and still have plenty of you left for your life outside the office.

Are just looking for another course to watch, download, and put on the shelf. I'm here to help you integrate and implement.
Want someone to hand you all the answers. I'll give you the tools, systems, support, and plenty of ideas-but you know your practice better than anyone.
Aren't in a place right now where you have the time or bandwidth to try something new and put it into practice.
Want a quick fix. Some things can get better pretty quickly. Other things-like becoming a better leader, building a stronger team, or changing the way the practice runs-takes some time.
Need everything to feel comfortable before you do it. Some of the biggest changes in this job come from having the conversation, making the decision, or trying the thing you've been putting off.
Are pretty happy with the way things are and aren't really looking to change anything right now.

WHAT DRIVES ME?

My heart is in coaching passionate, caring fellow dental office managers.

I spent more than 20 years in that chair, and I know how much you can care about a practice. I know what it’s like to want the doctor to succeed, the team to be happy, the patients to be taken care of, the schedule to work, the numbers to look good—and to feel personally responsible for making all of it happen.

I was really good at taking care of everyone and everything.

I just wasn’t always very good at remembering that I was a person in the equation too.

There were years when I thought being great at my job meant giving it whatever it asked of me. More hours. More energy. More headspace. I could solve a scheduling problem, deal with an insurance mess, help a frustrated patient, handle a team issue, and somehow still be thinking about all of it long after I’d gone home.

And the crazy part is, I loved my job. I just didn't realize how much of myself I was giving up to be good at it.

That’s why I do what I do today. I care deeply about the people sitting in that chair now. I want you to have the career you want, become the leader you know you can be, and build a practice you’re incredibly proud of.

I just don’t believe you should have to lose yourself—or the rest of your life—to do it.

It took me way too long to figure out working harder isn't always the answer.

I had to learn I could care deeply about running the practice well without be responsible for it 24/7…

I could leave the office and actually leave work there.
I could be with my family without half of my brain still working on something that happened at 2:30 that afternoon.
I could rest without feeling like I should be doing something "productive."
I could let other people do their jobs without jumping in, taking over, or worrying that something might get missed.
I could enjoy dentistry again-not because the hard parts disappeared, but because they didn't take so much out of me anymore.
And maybe most importantly, I learned that I mattered too. Not more than the practice, my team, my patients, or my family. But not less than them either.

I've walked in your shoes and discovered the way out. My passion is guiding my fellow dental office managers to discover and create their own path to success.

HOW IS WORKING WITH ME DIFFERENT?

I always found it interesting when I’d hear consultants and gurus say their program was not “cookie cutter.” Then, they’d pull out their PowerPoints, handouts, etc. that had absolutely no clue to what we were currently doing and how we could actually make their plan work for us. Or, investing in a coach or program only to have them throw up a few videos and then disappear into the internet abyss. You will absolutely not find that when we work together.

It’s all about you...where you are now, where you want to go, and the exact steps you need to take to create the exact life you want to create.

HERE ARE A FEW MORE UNIQUE THINGS ABOUT WORKING WITH ME:

Real Life – Practical Solutions

You don’t need another complicated system, a 47-step morning routine, or a color-coded binder you’ll never open again. You need things that actually work in a busy dental practice, with real patients, real team members, interruptions, call-outs, insurance headaches and days that don’t go according to plan.

We’ll keep it practical, doable, and built for real life—because if you can’t actually use it, what’s the point?

Implementation

We’re actually going to use this stuff. You don’t need more information piled on top of everything you already know. The focus here is on integration and implementation—taking what you learn and figuring out exactly how to use it in your practice, with your team, and in your real life. Because knowing what to do is one thing. Doing it—and making it stick—is where things change.

Comprehensive Approach

Just like in dentistry, we’re not going to look at one problem and ignore everything else going on around it. Your time affects your stress. Your team affects your workload. Your systems affect your time. Your work affects what you have left when you get home—and what’s happening at home affects how you show up at work.

It’s all connected. So we’ll look at the whole picture, not just whatever happens to be screaming the loudest today.

WHO AM I OUTSIDE OF MY BUSINESS?

My go-to fun is a great concert…Bon Jovi, Tim McGraw, Beyonce, Post Malone…I love it all.

I love a good transformation – making something out of nothing – seeing new life being breathed into someone or something.

I’m a giver…it’s my love language. I love sharing everything I have with my family and friends – it’s my most favorite thing of all.

GNO – Sharing a great glass of wine with friends … and a good dance party!

My family, especially my grandchildren, Ellie, Jett and Luca. Getting a text from my kids of their precious smiles…always lights up my day.

Travel – anywhere. “TSA Pre-check” are my favorite words.

A good mentor inspires me. I have been unbelievably blessed to have been surrounded by some of the most amazing talent in dentistry, business and spirituality. I cannot image where I’d be without them.

I cannot live without my Google calendar – lost – absolutely lost without it!

What I cannot stand - - - people who say “I never dreamed I could _______”

And my latest obsession....line dancing!
