On today’s episode, Dr. Mark Costes shares his personal journey of perseverance, success, and the unexpected struggles that came with it. After 21 attempts to get into dental school, he finally made it—only to realize years later that financial success didn’t equal happiness. At 38, with six practices, a million in the bank, and a thriving career, he found himself stressed, unhealthy, and disconnected from his family.
Mark breaks down the four quadrants of success—mind, meaning, muscle, and money—and why focusing on just one can leave you unfulfilled. He also shares the key strategies behind running a profitable, systemized practice, understanding overhead, and making informed financial decisions in dentistry.
