Listen "Root Dental, Real Life: How Dr. Maggie Grothe Built Her Dream While Raising Babies"
Episode Synopsis
This week, Paulina sits down with Dr. Maggie Grothe- mom of two under three and founder of Root Dental in Algonquin, Illinois- for the kind of conversation that feels like a deep, grounding breath. They talk about what it really looks like to open a dental practice from scratch with a baby on your hip, why her “you got outbid” text in the hospital became her villain origin story, and how having a career can actually make you a better, more present mom. And because she’s a dentist, we go there: when kids really need their first dental visit (hint: it’s earlier than you think), what to know about fluoride and “holistic” care, why purees and all-day snacking might be quietly wrecking your family’s teeth, and simple swaps that protect tiny smiles and yours. If you’ve ever wondered, “Am I allowed to want more for myself and my kids at the same time?”- this episode is your reminder: you’re not selfish, you’re building something. For you, and for them.Follow Dr. Maggie Grothe here: https://www.instagram.com/gorootdental/I’m grateful to have you here.
