He shares the raw truth about: Why the worst advice he received in dental school nearly derailed him — and how he rewrote the rulesThe compound power of real relationships (the hidden force behind every major break, including the one that led to the billion-dollar deal)How he learned to negotiate his worth, add value far beyond his clinical role, and turn trust into an unfair advantageWhy “build it and they will come” is one of the most dangerous myths for new practice ownersThe mindset shift from playing offense to making fewer dumb mistakes (and why The Road Less Stupid became his bible)The mega sacrifices required to reach true freedom: doing what you want, when you want, with whom you wantIf you’re a clinician, founder, or high-performer tired of autopilot, this conversation will challenge how you think about risk, relationships, communication, and what it actually takes to design a life, not just a practice, on your own terms. Because in the end, clinical excellence is only part of the equation. The real game is the questions you ask, the people you choose to bring close, and the domain you decide to own. Listen now. Then go build yours.
