She purchased her first practice just six months after finishing VT and was considering retirement by the time she hit her mid-20s.   Jenny takes us through her impoverished upbringing in York, where she became a full-time young carer after her mother sustained life-changing injuries. She describes how she dealt with a shocking violation of trust from an associate, reveals why she often hesitates before treating lawyers and much more.    Enjoy!   “If you've heard of Maslow's hierarchy of needs, I really feel I’m at a point in my life where I've got enough...I want to give back and empower other people in whatever capacity I can.” Jenni Kabir In This Episode 02.52 - Backstory 08.49 - Into dental school 11.29 - Adversity and confidence 14.02 - Leaving mum behind 17.17 - VT, first jobs and practice ownership 24.26 - Starting again 27.30 - North Vs South 29.27 - Building Fresh Dental 33.32 - A violation of trust 41.08 - Blackbox thinking 50.49 - Women and implantology 53.14 - On mentors 56.15 - Teaching, B&Bs, car washes and diversification 01.04.27 - Motivation and leadership 01.06.59  - Future plans and pride 01.09.36 - Last days and legacy About Jenni Kabir Dr Jenni Kabir studied in Manchester, where she ran a chain of successful clinics before returning to her hometown of York to set up Fresh Smiles Dental Clinic.   She is one of the youngest dentists to be awarded DPDS postgraduate diploma from the University of Bristol and holds a diploma in implant dentistry from the Royal College of Surgeons.    Jenni was selected to be the dentist for the Manchester Commonwealth Games in 2001 and the London Olympic games in 2012.
