21. A Look Back at an Extraordinary Year  
Podcast: Contrary to Ordinary, Exploring Extraordinary Personal Journeys
Published On: Mon Dec 25 2023
Description: Welcome to a very special holiday episode of Contrary to Ordinary. Today, we’re taking a look back over some extraordinary conversations from across 2023. The mission of this podcast has been to figure out what makes a person extraordinary. Are they born with it? Can it be taught? Is work/life balance even possible for people who have made extraordinary strides in their careers? Extraordinary people come in many shapes and sizes, but this show has identified a few common traits that they share. They’re usually curious, lifelong learners who love to gain more knowledge. They don’t waste time and don’t sit still for too long. Finally, they don’t do it for the money. They do it to help others and the world. Thank you so much for listening. Contrary to Ordinary will return in 2024 with more extraordinary conversations.This episode features the voices of Dr. Rella Christensen, Dr. Doug Young, Machell Hudson, Dr. Philip D. Marsh, Stephanie Staples, Dr. John Kois, and Professor John Featherstone. ResourcesFollow your curiosity, connect, and join our ever-growing community of extraordinary minds.CariFree WebsiteCariFree on InstagramCariFree on FacebookCariFree on PinterestCariFree on TwitterDr. Kim Kutsch on LinkedInWhat's In This EpisodeA comparison of three, very different dental origin storiesSome fantastic advice about following your dreamsA real example of what it means to challenge the status quoExtraordinary people telling their stories
