Empowering Women in Dentistry

Episode 4

Brandi Marzolino reveals the hidden crisis destroying women leaders in dentistry: despite women making up over 50% of dental school graduates, they represent a drastically smaller percentage in ownership and full-time practice - and the cost is millions in lost potential across the industry.
Key Revelations:
  • Despite 50%+ graduation rates, women represent far fewer owners, full-time dentists, and specialists

  • The hidden reason: women crave balance but face triple pressure - dental owner/full-time dentist + mom + partner

  • Women provide emotional support and nurturing with zero financial payout - it's called "silent labor"

  • The exhaustion factor: being naturally empathetic and compassionate drains energy with no compensation system
