Dr. Zahid Ahmed is a person who has become a friend and mentor of mine. His introspective and thoughtful way of looking at his life, profession, and family is what led him to retire with a sold practice at the age of 38—but he isn’t done yet. Listen in to hear about his journey in dentistry and the intentional way he has pursued a fulfilling life of success, freedom, and family.
You will hear about the critical moments that shaped Dr. Ahmed’s career, his retirement planning, his parenting and the vision he wanted for his family. He also speaks about being an introvert and how mentors and other methods have pushed him to step up and step out of his comfort zone.
