From Refugee to Protruserati – My Story with Soft Bites – IC028

My story of coming to the UK as a refugee from Afghanistan aged 6 and my journey in to Dentistry. I share some tough times and what drives me today. I explained why I think Dentistry was mis-sold to many of us as a 9-5 job (HA!) and my top books and influences. I’m delighted to be a guest on the Soft Bites Podcast. The hosts, Manuela and Jorge, have both been guests on the Protrusive Dental Podcast in the past. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pznVMyEDwTE Highlights of this episode: 4:48 My Story: Refugee 1996 7:17 Life adversities 17:13 Importance of going through difficult moments 22:31 Podcasting Journey 27:38 Practicing a positive mindset 31:51 Importance of education and information 35:36 Good communication skills 45:38 Balance between the professional and personal life 55:25 Core values in life 59:30 Future goals for The Protrusive Dental Podcast and clinical dentistry Dr. Mahmoud Ibrahim and I are launching an occlusion course called OBAB (Occlusion Basics And Beyond).
