So many of us chose a career — or had it chosen for us — because of our parents, culture, or society’s idea of success. For many in dentistry and other high-pressure professions, the story starts the same way: “My parents made me do it.”
In this episode, we explore what it really means to reclaim your power — not by pushing harder, but by going inward. Through deep embodiment and truth-telling, you can reconnect with your authentic self, align your path, and step into your highest power.
When you finally release the need to prove that you’re “living a good life,” everything begins to flow — in your career, your relationships, and your sense of self. This conversation is for anyone who’s ever questioned: Am I living my life, or someone else’s?
Key Themes & Takeaways:
The hidden cultural and family pressures behind career choices — especially in dentistry
The courage it takes to tell your truth when it goes against expectations
Why embodiment is the gateway to greatness and personal freedom
Letting go of the need to appear successful to others
How alignment and authenticity unlock effortless flow in every area of life
Power Quote:
“Everything flows when you’re in your highest power. But to get there, you have to be willing to go in.”
