You CAN sit with us!

June 19, 2022June 19, 2022 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

Back in 2018, when I was just a fresh graduate, I had no plans of starting a practice, founding a 100 member+ national Study Club or applying for awards. I was yet to be involved in organized dentistry and write for the ADA New Dentist Now blog. I had not yet started my website or… Continue reading You CAN sit with us!

Lessons for someone in their 20s

June 14, 2022June 14, 2022 Sampada Deshpande2 Comments

As I look back over the last decade of my life and observe many personal and professional pains and wins, I wish to share what I’ve learned with other people, especially mentees. Not everyone wants or needs this advice. Most don’t even consider the idea that they may be making a bad decision that will… Continue reading Lessons for someone in their 20s

One year in tech

February 3, 2022February 3, 2022 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

It was about a year after dental school that I realized how much I enjoyed business. I felt drawn to leadership roles and teaching when it involved the business side of dentistry. Students who had questions about their career options after school, were my favorite kind of mentees! It was in June of 2021 that… Continue reading One year in tech

Diving and life

January 5, 2022January 5, 2022 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

I had always wanted to get PADI certified for scuba diving. It was a bucket list item that I wanted to check off. I didn’t realize the skills and training that would go into it until I started taking the e-learning online course beforehand. PADI is not easy! I am still unsure why I didn’t… Continue reading Diving and life

Negotiation 101

There are a lot of life skills that we were never taught in professional schools. Negotiating your pay, advocating for yourself in the workplace and networking with others, are just the tip of the iceberg. It takes the average professional, years to learn the above and make it a critical part of their toolbox. Even… Continue reading Negotiation 101

Self-advocacy

November 2, 2021November 2, 2021 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

It took me years to learn what career advocacy meant. As an immigrant, I spent the first several years in America, trying to ‘fit in’. I was quiet, often taking criticism personally, and afraid of sharing my gifts with others. I was reluctant at the thought of expanding my comfort zone. What does advocacy mean… Continue reading Self-advocacy

Could your dream change?

August 10, 2021August 10, 2021 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

In everyone’s life, there appear few milestones that we feel would be insurmountable. And, once you cross them, you do not know what to do on the other side. You never thought you’d get that far in the first place. It happens to all of us. Can you think of when it happened with you… Continue reading Could your dream change?

A perfect job

June 28, 2021June 28, 2021 Sampada DeshpandeLeave a comment

The Wall Street Journal put out an interesting podcast episode on the Journal last week. It was about why many American’s are quitting their jobs. The results were not surprising, and frankly, all too relatable. All of us have friends who quit their jobs this year, and we all know others who want to. Some… Continue reading A perfect job

You may have heard of this concept before- of Manifesting. Even though I’d heard of it before, I never understood its importance so did not put it into action. I know NOW how critical it is to manifest and implement. Manifesting has helped me create a life I can look back on and be proud… Continue reading Manifesting
