Most people are running full speed in life but aren't sure what direction or what they are running towards. So they begin to run faster and faster - and beat themselves up for not being further along.

As this goalpost keeps moving, suffering and mental health problems increase. Countless dental professionals struggle daily with these issues, but the good news is that it doesn't have to be that way!

Karan Nijhawan is the Founder of The Expansion Project, a movement that focuses on helping dental professionals create their dream life while overcoming self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and the feeling of not being "good enough."

Although a recent newcomer in the dental space, Karan has been in the mindfulness and well-being business for more than 5 years, helping hundreds of entrepreneurs find happiness and a renewed purpose in life. 

For Karan, many of the daily struggles dentists face aren't much different from those of entrepreneurs. This might not sound very helpful, but the upside is that the same solutions will also apply - and most of them have much to do with reframing limiting beliefs and starting to live in the moment.

In other words, the road to happiness and fulfillment starts with practicing and developing mindfulness. So, what are some examples of these mindfulness techniques? And how can dental professionals begin to apply them practically?

Fortunately for you, this is precisely what this week's episode of 'The Raving Patients Podcast' is about!

Karan joins me to discuss 5 ways mindfulness can help dental professionals overcome their personal and professional struggles, make more money, and ultimately lead a better life. Tune in to find out more!

You'll learn how to stop searching aimlessly so you can begin to discover who you are and create the perfect calendar of life.
