Meet the Burnout Busters
Sandy and Laura came together through a shared passion for the dental profession—and a shared understanding of its pressures. Each has lived the reality of burnout and emerged with a clear conviction that alignment, not endurance, is the path to sustainable success. As the Practice Alignment Architect and the Personal Alignment Architect, they recognized a powerful harmony between their work. By bridging their professional expertise with a deep personal friendship, they created a unified approach to support and restore the people behind the profession they love.
