Description

On this listener Q&R (Question and Response) episode of the Dentist Money Show, Matt and Ryan break down what it really takes (financially and personally) to transition from general dentistry to a specialty. They explain why understanding lifestyle and location tradeoffs is just as important as analyzing income potential, what it means to be "work optional," and how to evaluate your readiness for a sabbatical or career reset. Whether you're considering a specialization, contemplating a move, or reassessing your long-term goals, tune in for clarity and perspective for building the career and life you truly want.
