Description

Sometimes, confidence begins with a smile. For Dr. Ingrid Murra, a first-generation daughter of Salvadoran immigrants, that smile became the foundation for a purpose-driven career. From growing up in a hard-working blue-collar family to earning her degree in orthodontics at Harvard, Ingrid has built her life around one belief: transforming your smile can transform your confidence, your health, and your future.


In this episode of Amiga, Handle Your Shit, Jackie sits down with Dr. Ingrid Murra, founder and CEO of Two Front, a company revolutionizing how dentists deliver Invisalign treatment. Ingrid shares how her family's story of grit and determination shaped her drive, how a childhood insecurity led her to discover her calling, and what she learned about the truth behind orthodontic care and marketing myths.


You'll also hear Ingrid's insights on how to choose the right Invisalign provider, the link between oral health and longevity, and the mindset shifts that helped her move from self-doubt to leadership. Her story is a masterclass in hard work, humility, and staying true to one's mission. It's proof that when you follow purpose over fear, extraordinary things happen.
