Episode 144. How to Choose a "Word of the Year" That Actually Changes Your Life
What if one word could change your entire year?
In this episode of The Dental Life Podcast, Beth Heilman shares why she chose Execution as her Word of the Year for 2026—and how one simple word can become the most powerful tool you use to get out of burnout, cut through overwhelm, and finally follow through on what matters most.
After a year focused on Discipline—keeping promises to herself—Beth realized something crucial: discipline creates readiness, but execution creates results. Inspired by a moment with her second-grade granddaughter (and a bedazzled poster), this episode delivers a powerful reminder that ideas don’t change your life—action does.
You’ll learn:
- What a Word of the Year actually is (and why it works when resolutions fail)
- How one word can simplify decisions, reduce stress, and create momentum
- Practical ways to choose a Word of the Year that aligns with who you’re becoming
If you’re tired of starting strong and fading out…
If you’re burned out, overwhelmed, or stuck in overthinking…
This episode will help you choose clarity over chaos and action over excuses.
Press play and discover the one word that can reshape your 2026—from the inside out.
