Grace grows where fear once lived. In today’s powerful episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy shares a story every dentist will feel in their bones, a tale of fear, anger, and the moment everything shifted.

If you’ve ever carried the weight of someone else’s emotions home, this episode will remind you where your true power lies. Listen now and remember, peace isn’t found, it’s created.
