Lighten the Drill - A Podcast for Female Dentists
Last episode 15 July 2026. Still going.
Hi, I'm Melissa Skinner, and welcome to Lighten the Drill - a podcast created for the high-achieving female leaders who are craving deeper fulfillment, soul-driven impact, and more effortless flow in both life and work. I'm a leadership coach, practicing dentist, clinic owner, mentor, mom, and wife. Like you, I am juggling a lot of roles, and I know how exhausting it can be to keep all those plates spinning. That's why I've dedicated my journey to what I believe is the heart of leadership: the inner work. This is where your leadership identity shifts from overwhelm to self-trust. This podcast is your invitation to step away from the old, exhausting paradigms of hustle, grind, and force... and instead, embrace ease, feminine intuition, and unshakable self-trust. It's time for less push… and way more grace. Each episode will give you powerful insights, practical tools, and inspiring stories to help you lead with confidence, compassion, and clarity, so you can create a life and career that truly lights you up. And the best part - these podcasts are 10-15 minutes long for easy listening on a commute, or short break between patients. If you're ready to move beyond overwhelm and start leading on your own soulful terms, hit subscribe and join the movement. I would love to connect! Follow me on Instagram and send me a DM. If you are interested in working together through private coaching, I would love for you to book a free clarity call. Visit my scheduler to book a relaxed, 15-30 minute virtual call.
