The Chief Psycho Podcast

Beyond the Brackets

Jonathan Bonanno / Dr. Zhanna Konovalenko Season 4 Episode 3

In this powerful return episode, Dr. Zhanna Konovalenko joins us to explore what it means to lead a career beyond the brackets. A board-certified orthodontist and founder of NoStressDDS Mastermind, Dr. Zhanna is a trusted voice guiding women in dentistry through burnout, practice transitions, and the pursuit of balance.

We dive into:

  • The invisible pressure women face in practice ownership and career growth
  • How to manage major life changes without losing yourself
  • What it means to redefine success on your own terms
  • Her journey from ortho to coach — and why both can coexist

Whether you’re in the thick of burnout or just beginning to question “what’s next?” — this episode reminds you: fulfillment is possible, and reinvention is always on the table.
