408 - Life Moves Pretty Fast with Dr Jae Grymes

In this episode of the Podiatry Legends Podcast, I'm joined by Dr Jae Grymes from Delaware, USA, a dual board-certified dental anaesthesiologist and paediatric dentist. While her clinical world is dentistry, you'll quickly realise how similar our professions are. We dive into the realities of healthcare today, debt, corporate pressure, perfectionism, burnout, and the silent struggles many clinicians face but rarely talk about openly. Jae shares her personal journey through grief, professional dissatisfaction, and rebuilding her mindset from the ground up. We discuss why "everything is hard until it's easy," how skills compound over time, and why you should never apologise for your fees when you've earned your expertise. But we also talk about the privilege of being in healthcare and the importance of balance. One of the big themes in this episode is comparison. Comparing your clinic, your income, your house, your car, and how dangerous that can be when you don't know what's happening behind closed doors. We finish with a powerful reminder from Ferris Bueller: "Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it". This episode isn't about marketing tactics or business systems. It's about perspective. If you're building a business and want it to support your life instead of consume it, maybe it's time for a different conversation. I work exclusively with ambitious podiatrists who are serious about making a change in their businesses. https://www.tysonfranklin.com/ If you want to connect with Dr Jae Grymes: LINKEDIN - www.linkedin.com/in/jaegrymes
