Ep #173: Salena Kulkarni - How Practice Owners Can Build Long-Term Wealth and Freedom
About this episode
In this episode of the Dental Business Mastery Podcast, Julie Parker sits down with accountant, investor and financial mentor Salena Kulkarni from Freedom Warrior to explore one of the most important - and often overlooked - aspects of practice ownership: wealth creation beyond the dental practice.
Salena shares why so many dentists, despite earning strong incomes, still feel financially trapped, stressed, and unable to step away from the chair. Salena unpacks the difference between running a successful practice and building genuine long-term wealth.
This conversation explores the psychology of money, the “golden handcuffs” many practice owners experience, and why financial freedom is ultimately about creating choice, flexibility, and purpose - not simply accumulating more income.
