    Mentor of the Month: Jenergy - Turning Setbacks into Strengths

    If you would also like to build the new page here is a paragraph to describe the podcast: In this inspiring conversation with Dr. Jen Derse, hosted by Stuart and Steve Anderson, listeners get a candid look at how a small-town Wisconsin kid, “band geek,” and self-proclaimed “Jenergy” machine built a thriving career in cosmetic dentistry—and then had to reinvent herself when she could no longer practice clinically. Jen shares practical, immediately usable insights on leadership, culture, and case acceptance: how to bring patients into collaborative treatment planning, motivate teams through tiny gains and big celebrations, empower staff to design the systems they use, and weave “doing good” (like humanitarian trips and Smiles for Life) into the fabric of a practice so it builds trust and loyalty. Dentists and teams will walk away with a renewed vision of what it means to be a maker, not a taker, fresh language to communicate more clearly and compassionately, and concrete ideas to strengthen their practice culture, patient relationships, and personal resilience.   A few highlights worth mentioning: Founder and former Chief Clinical Director of Espire Dental, helping grow it into a large multi-location organization. Nationally and internationally recognized speaker, educator, mentor, and consultant. Mentor at the Kois Center and educator for dentists around the world. Graduate of Marquette University School of Dentistry with advanced leadership training through Harvard Business School Online, McKinsey Leadership Academy, and The Ritz-Carlton Leadership Center. Founder of the Espiration Foundation, providing care and support to underserved populations in the Dominican Republic and Guatemala. Recently transitioned from full-time executive leadership to focus on what she loves most: mentoring, coaching, consulting, and teaching.
