In this inspiring presentation, Dr. Matt Slivka shares how purpose, people, and influence have transformed both his life and practice. From launching Roadside Dental without mentorship to becoming a thriving multi-doctor practice and a DSI Black Belt Coach, Matt reflects on how his journey was shaped by small acts of mentorship—like an open invitation from Dr. Jason Campbell—that led to massive ripple effects. He emphasizes the personal growth he found through DSI, the power of community, and his mission-driven nonprofit, Roadside Reach International, which brings dental care and support to underserved communities in Guatemala. Matt highlights real-life examples of world-changing influence—from a single IT technician funding a water tower in Africa to his own team delivering textbooks to rural Guatemalan students. He reminds us that true legacy isn't measured by recognition, but by the lives we touch through generosity and intention. With heartfelt stories and calls to action, he challenges the audience to think bigger, express gratitude, and ask one key question: "Who can you influence today?"
