Owning a business can be one of the most rewarding experiences in life.
But along the journey come the not-so-fun moments: the failures.
It’s easy to have a meltdown when the going gets tough. But those who push through the challenges reap the greatest rewards.
That’s why Dr. Mark Costes’ story is so inspiring.
It’s hard enough to bounce back from a failure or two. Now imagine bouncing back from several (twenty-one to be exact).
That’s the number of dental schools Dr. Costes applied to (and was rejected by) before finally getting accepted.
But that’s all he needed to become one of the most respected icons in our industry.
He is now an international speaker and best-selling author, founder of the Dental Success Summit, and host of two amazing podcasts (Six Figure Side Gig and Dentalpreneur).
So whether you’re going through some challenges, or looking to level up, you’ll appreciate the valuable lessons Dr. Costes shares with us on this episode.
