The Savvy Dentist

In this episode of The Savvy Dentist Podcast, Dr. Jesse Green is joined by Michael Licenblat. Michael is an expert on resilience and teaches us how to bounce back fast from pressures, setbacks, and rejections in life and business … and in doing so, how to maximise our performance and success.

Have a pen and paper ready for this episode as Michael gives you the techniques, confidence and courage to manage the failures, challenges and problems that are part of every process in the world of business.

Michael Licenblat was born into a family of entrepreneurial parents and grew up working inside the numerous family businesses. In this fast paced, high pressure environment, he quickly learnt that success often came to those who can ride the bumps, get up, and keep going.

Over 20 years ago, Michael became one of the pioneers in building a successful natural therapies business through overcoming market rejection, refusals, and knockbacks. By drawing on his background in business, psychology, Shiatsu therapy, and over 25 years of martial arts experience, Michael has helped countless companies become ‘pressure proof’ and out-achieve their competition.

Michael explains how to read ‘pressure patterns’ and build your personal resilience so that you have practical ideas on how to ‘keep the drive alive’.
