2252: What It Takes to Exit and Start Again Stronger Pt. 1

In today's Part 1 episode, Dr. Mark Costes catches up with longtime friend and powerhouse entrepreneur Dr. Kyle Hale. Kyle opens up about life after selling his DSO, why he took a step back, and how he spent his sabbatical reconnecting with family and rediscovering his passion for racing. He shares his reflections on the stress of clinical dentistry, how his wife Callie's burnout influenced their business decisions, and what it took to prepare their group of practices for a smooth and successful exit.

The conversation also dives into the challenges and lessons learned from scaling quickly, the importance of systems, and how stepping away opened doors to new ventures like the Airway Dentist. This is part one of an inspiring conversation about transition, purpose, and designing a life by intention.
