Dr. Anila Shah is a dentist and entrepreneur. She practiced dentistry for almost 20 years and
owned her own practice for roughly 13 years. She loves dentistry but eventually the compensation was not aligned with the stress and increased hours. She was tired, overweight, in physical pain, and the daily grind got to her. As a result, she fell into a period of anxiety and depression. It was exasperated after her mother passed away. This was a scary moment and a wake up call.
She made a decision to start educating herself on health, longevity, and how to make money “the smart way” so that she could live life on her terms. While still running her dental practice, she started to take massive action. She spent over a half of million dollars on health and financial education and she dove in by joining masterminds, conventions, and meeting one-on-one with coaches and experts. After regaining her emotional and spiritual health, losing over 20 pounds, and completing 13 passive investments, she made the bold decision to sell her practice in 2019 despite all the hard work that goes into getting a DDS degree and building a successful practice.
Currently, she generates passive income that is more than her lifestyle expenses, has time and location flexibility, and travels with friends and family regularly. This led her to form the Bored Dentists Club to help her fellow dentists to avoid a similar health and emotional wake up call, make their money work for them, spend more time with family and friends, and start their path to financial freedom.
