Running a dental practice can feel like a lonely grind. You’ve got ideas, goals, and roadblocks, but not always the right people around you to help solve them. In this episode of My Dental Playbook, Dr. Blake and I unveil something new: a mastermind group designed for dentists who are ready to grow, lead, and connect with others on the same path. Here’s why we’re doing it, who it’s for, and what you can expect.
Why Dentists Struggle to Grow in Isolation
Most dentists are navigating practice growth alone. You can take a CE course, hire a coach, or scroll through dental forums, but nothing replaces having a trusted circle of real doctors who have been where you are and want to see you win.
What makes isolation so dangerous:
- You lose perspective on what “normal” growth looks like
- You feel discouraged by minor setbacks because no one else is sharing their struggles
- You move slower without someone to challenge your thinking
Dr. Blake shared how much faster he advanced because of mentors who “bent time” for him.
This mastermind is designed to do that for others.
The Mastermind Structure: 90 Minutes a Month That Pays for Itself
This isn’t another Facebook group or one-sided lecture. It’s a live, interactive 90-minute session every month, led by Dr. Blake and me. We keep the group high-quality by charging $299/month and requiring an application.
Here’s what makes it different:
- Co-led by a practicing dentist and dental growth strategist
- Built for idea sharing, problem-solving, and speed of execution
- Capped to keep engagement high and noise low
You don’t just learn. You participate, troubleshoot, and get access to what’s working right now inside high-performing practices.
Who This Is (and Isn’t) For
We want to be really clear. This group is not for everyone.
It’s for:
- Dentists who want to grow faster without guessing
- Practice owners who are ready to be challenged
- Doctors who want honest feedback – not just hype
It’s not for:
- Complainers
- People who aren’t willing to try new things
- Dentists looking for a magic button
This is for people ready to take action and contribute.
Why $299 Is the Best Investment You’ll Make This Year
This isn’t a course, and it’s not a content subscription. It’s access. You’re getting:
- Private access to Dr. Blake and me
- Real-time advice on marketing, operations, leadership, and team building
- A community of like-minded dentists who want to win, not whine
And just like we said on the podcast: if you ever feel like it stops providing value, you can cancel. No pressure, no contract.
Quick Wins: How to Make the Most of a Mastermind
- Show up ready to share, not just take
- Keep a running list of questions between sessions
- Commit to implementing one action item per month
- Offer help to others, and you’ll get more in return
- Stay consistent and don’t drop off after one session
Think Smarter
When aiming for rapid growth, relying on trial and error is a luxury you can’t afford. The most effective strategy is to immerse yourself in a community of individuals who are just a few steps ahead of where you are. This isn’t just helpful; it’s the ultimate “cheat code” to accelerated progress.
Think of it this way: the path to success has already been laid out by those who have walked it before you. Their experiences, successes, and even their missteps collectively form a comprehensive map. Your task isn’t to blaze a new trail in the wilderness, but simply to follow this pre-existing guide. By observing, learning from, and collaborating with those who have navigated similar challenges and achieved the outcomes you desire, you gain invaluable insights that can drastically reduce your learning curve and mitigate risks. This approach allows you to bypass common pitfalls and adopt proven strategies, ultimately propelling you towards your goals with unprecedented speed and efficiency.
Final Thought
