In episode 214 of the Savvy Dentist Podcast, I have an interesting conversation with a good friend of mine, Dr. Ayesha Aijaz. Ayesha runs a very successful group of practices in Melbourne

Today, Ayesha and I talk about the life and leadership lessons she has picked up and learned over the last few years in her journey of growing and scaling her businesses and creating time in her life.
