On today's episode, Dr. Mark Costes opens his April 2026 Mastermind talk with an update on the whirlwind first quarter of mission work through SOI, including trips to Guatemala, Fiji, and Honduras, before shifting into the idea of quiet reinvention. He explains how high-performing dentists often become trapped by the very habits that made them successful, especially hustle, grind, overproduction, and self-sacrifice. Dr. Costes introduces the four seasons of a dental career: spring as the builder phase, summer as the growth phase, fall as the optimization phase, and winter as the reinvention phase. He challenges listeners to identify which season they are currently in and recognize when the behaviors that once created success are now causing burnout, resentment, or stagnation.
