Manage episode 507097295 series 3187577
Are you thriving in your practice, but quietly wondering why life still feels out of balance? Or maybe you’re grinding it out every day, but no matter how many CE courses you take, you just can’t break through that plateau. In this episode of Jump Start with Jeff, we’re getting brutally honest about what’s really holding dentists back, and it’s not just clinical skills.
Dr. Jeff Buske, founder of Limitless Dentists, pulls back the curtain on the hidden side of success. He shares why leadership, emotional intelligence, and self-awareness matter just as much, if not more, than dentistry itself. Through his own story of burnout, breakthrough, and building a thriving life he loves, Dr. Buske challenges us to stop playing small and start leading with clarity, courage, and vision.
Whether you’re a young doc fresh out of school or a seasoned practitioner running multiple practices, this episode meets you where you are. You’ll discover how mindset and emotional mastery impact not only your bottom line, but your marriage, family, and overall fulfillment. If you’ve ever asked yourself, “Is this all there is?”—this conversation will hit home.
Key Takeaways:
Clinical skills are vital, but mindset and leadership unlock the next level of growth.
Emotional intelligence directly impacts production, relationships, and long-term success.
Self-awareness is the first step, honestly owning where you’re stuck opens the door to change.
Complacency can creep in when things are going well; growth must be intentional.
Success isn’t just about dentistry, it’s about building a life you love to wake up to.
“If you don’t develop emotional intelligence and leadership, you’re playing small, for yourself, your team, your patients, and your family.” - Dr. Jeff Buske
