The Dentist Freedom Blueprint Dr. David Phelps

Today I want to share a critical—yet often overlooked—inflection point in career planning that impacts not just dentists, but professionals across various industries. It's about understanding how much capital you truly need to alleviate pressure and gain financial freedom. Whether you're at the start, middle, or end of your career, the challenge lies in determining this capital base, as well as knowing how to make your money work for you. In this episode, I explain why passive income is essential and how to break free from average results to embrace true financial independence.

Today’s conversation is with Freedom Founders members Rick and Cindy Ostler, who have moved from a place of financial struggle to financial freedom. I like to have these chats from time to time because it is not only fun, but also sheds light on what has become my life's mission: to help other people on their path to financial freedom and leadership. These two have gone through a lot on their journey, and their story is an inspiring one that you don’t want to miss.

Listen in to hear how I started out in real estate and how it gave me my Plan B income when I needed it.
