Read bio

Has spent most of his life leaning into one question: what makes an adjustment truly connect? A chiropractor, teacher, and President of MLS Seminars, he has spent more than two decades studying the art behind the adjustment — not just what the hands do, but how we listen, communicate, perceive, and meet another human being. He practices at Lifeworks Chiropractic in Marietta, GA, and travels internationally teaching chiropractors to bring more presence, creativity, and mastery to their craft. His favourite territory is where great communication and extraordinary adjusting become the same conversation.

Dr. Jodi Dinnerman — Staffless Practice

Your host, both days

Hosted by

Dr. Jodi Dinnerman

Expert Mistake Maker & Solution Creator

Founder, Staffless Practice

Jodi convened this summit and hosts both days from open to close — introducing every speaker, running the Q&A, and keeping ten hours of programming moving so you get the most out of each session.

Serve more, earn more, work less.

Through Staffless Practice she works with chiropractors building practices that run lean without running their owners into the ground. She hosts the Staffless Practice Podcast, where many of this weekend's speakers appear in the run-up to the summit.
