Great episode with Sianna Trudell as we talk about the evolution of her career from dental assistant, to hygienist, and now to business owner! Sianna is opening a practice in Canada and we talk a little about the differences between the Canadian and US hygienists, developing social media channels supporting the younger and next generation of professionals, launching a speaking career, and round it out with how it goes to open up a practice.

Shout out to StudentRDH - Claire Jeong and Sianna's social media partner Kendra!
