## INSTAGRAM CAPTION

🎙️ I've been sitting on this for months — and I'm finally ready to say it out loud.

**Optimized Airway** — a brand-new weekly podcast for dental hygienists — is launching soon.

Every Tuesday, in about 15 minutes, I'll give you one practical, clinical tool you can use at your very next recall appointment. We'll talk about:

→ Airway screening you can actually do in under 90 seconds
→ Myofunctional therapy and how to bring it into a busy operatory
→ The conversations nobody taught us in hygiene school (tongue tie, mouth breathing, pediatric sleep)
→ Income, autonomy, and how to build a hygiene career that doesn't burn you out

This is the show I wish existed when I was a new grad staring at a patient's scalloped tongue thinking, *"Somebody should be saying something about this."*

Turns out — that somebody is us.

🔔 **Follow now so you don't miss Episode 1.** Trailer drops [DATE]. First three episodes are already in the can.

Comment "PODCAST" below and I'll DM you the link the second it goes live. 🤍

## LINKEDIN CAPTION

A new podcast for dental hygienists — launching soon.

**Optimized Airway** is a weekly 15-minute show built for the registered dental hygienist who's ready to expand beyond the prophy.

Each Tuesday, I'll cover one practical, evidence-based tool you can use at your very next recall appointment:

• Airway and myofunctional screening in under 90 seconds
• How to introduce myofunctional therapy in a traditional dental practice
• Patient and parent conversation scripts for tongue tie, mouth breathing, and pediatric sleep concerns
• Career growth, income, and burnout prevention for hygienists building a longer-term clinical practice

The dental hygienist is the most under-utilized provider in airway care. We have the chair time, the longitudinal relationships, and the patient trust that no other provider in the chain has. This podcast is about giving us the language, the framework, and the confidence to use it.

Follow now so you don't miss Episode 1.
