                    • 101. Finding Purpose Beyond the Practice with Dr. Laura Brenner

                      After dreaming of becoming a dentist her whole life, Dr. Laura Brenner learned that dentistry wasn’t a match for her. She practiced for 10 years before leaving clinical dentistry to become a blogger, a speaker, and a certified professional coach.

                      After her blog post, “10 Reasons Your Dentist Probably Hates You Too,” went viral, she began connecting with dental professionals around the world who wanted more from their careers. This inspired her to create Lolabees Career Coaching to guide dental professionals in designing their careers on their terms, so they can create joyful, balanced lives.
