## Resource

On today's episode, Dr. Mark welcomes back Dr. Kristin Yont to dive into one of the most overlooked challenges in dentistry—chronic stress and burnout. Drawing from her work with the SMART (Stress Management and Resiliency Training) program, Kristin shares how high-performing professionals can better regulate their nervous system, quiet negative self-talk, and build true mental resilience. The conversation explores practical tools like breathwork, mindfulness, and cognitive reframing, along with the science behind why our brains default to stress and how to shift back into a more calm, focused state. They also discuss the power of awareness, meditation, and self-compassion in creating lasting change—not just in your career, but in your overall quality of life. If you've ever felt overwhelmed, mentally drained, or stuck in a loop of pressure and perfectionism, this episode offers a grounded, actionable path forward.
