As dental business owners we need to take care of our patients as well as our team that we often neglect to take care of ourselves. In this episode, I’ve invited Dr. Anikó Ball to talk about looking after ourselves in the physical and emotional perspective. She is well-known for the work that she does in helping dentists achieve perfect posture from a working perspective and making sure that they take care of their physical and spiritual wellbeing.
