Dr Rhona Eskander is what a strong, bold, and smart entrepreneur looks like. She exudes confidence in herself and in her industry disruptive ‘toothpaste’ Parla so much so that she even turned down investment from a dragon on Dragons' Den. A successful dentist with her own practice Chelsea Dental Clinic, and an influencer with over 100k followers on Instagram and regular TV appearances, Dr Rhona has created her own niche. She is unapologetically glamorous, who in no uncertain terms has been told to tone it down. In this episode #36 we talk about her fighting with society, breaking down stereotypes, her approach to ‘having it all’ and taking over the world. Such a positive and inspiring conversation. I hope it fills you with as much energy as it did me. ------------------------------- WE DISCUSS ------------------------------- 02:22 - Intro - did you always want to be a dentist? 09:09 - Rhona fighting with society 12:33 - Rhona’s early years and growing up 21:34 - How do you handle comments such as ‘don’t look so glamorous’? 25:27 - On motherhood & mental health 34:21 - Rhona’s Dragons' Den Experience with her toothpaste brand Parla 40:38 - Was it a mistake to walk away from the Dragon’s offer? 43:35 - What’s the hardest thing about being a co-founder? 47:10 - How do you handle social media and running a business? 48:51 - Anything you would change about yourself? 52:10 - What does leadership mean to you? 56:48 - The Impossible question ----------------------------------------- DR RHONA ESKANDER ----------------------------------------- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/drrhonaeskander/ TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@drrhonaeskander Twitter: https://twitter.com/drrhonaeskander YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/DrRhonaEskander Websites: Parla: https://parlatoothpastetabs.com/ Personal: https://www.drrhonaeskander.com/ Dental Practice: https://www.chelseadentalclinic.co.uk/team/dr-rhona-eskander/ ------------------------------- FOLLOW ME ON ------------------------------- LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mariahvo/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mariahvo/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/mhvorostovsky HVO Search: https://www.hvosearch.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Need help HIRING - head over to - http://www.hirewithmaria.com ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- LEAVE A REVIEW: If you’re listening on Apple Podcasts make sure to Follow, Rate, and leave a REVIEW.
