Podcast Episode #56: Dr. Yuliya Salmeron
https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-determined-people-podcast/id1545647376?i=1000508080664
When Yuliya Salmeron was 19 years old, she tearfully said goodbye to her mother and boarded a bus for the Moscow Airport. Yuliya wasn’t sure she would ever see her mother again, but Yuliya wanted a better life for herself and her family. This brought her to the United States.
After first arriving in New York, she ended up in Cleveland, slept 2 nights in the Cleveland bus station because she had nowhere to go, and finally secured a job cleaning a restaurant at night. Her English, while proficient at understanding others, wasn’t conversational so Yuliya took the brave step of working in a diner, forcing her to interact with the English-speaking customers. She enrolled in college, and after a demeaning conversation with a former work colleague, something ignited inside her. Yuliya Salmeron was going to combine her artistic and technical skills and become a dentist!
Through a lot of hard work and determination, Yuliya graduated in the top 3% of her dental class. She knew where she wanted to go, but God had a better plan…
Yuliya’s story of grit, determination, perseverance and faith will inspire you. Today she is the proud owner of EDGE Endodontics, but it wasn’t easy getting there…
Get Rid of “It”…
Whatever is holding you back from living a full life, get rid of it. It could be a resentment from a past hurt, a betrayal, or trauma caused by an abuser. Do the hard work on yourself. Your future self will thank you for getting rid of it…
Fairness…
Life is not fair, but it is a boomerang. What you throw out returns to you. Typically there is a delay, but if you put goodness into the world, goodness will be returned to you in abundance. Do not concern yourself with what others are getting. Yours will come. I promise…
Toddlers…
I love the company of toddlers. Yes, they are full of unending questions, but they are just trying to learn. Toddlers don’t come with a personal agenda, and they don’t filter their conversations. Do you want authenticity in your life? Hang out with toddlers…
Luck…
Do you believe in luck? Or coincidence? I don’t, but I must admit that things happen which are unexplainable in life. Chance meetings. Connecting with people randomly whom you become close to. One day we will understand…
Education…
Be a lifelong learner. Enrich your life with great books, beautiful music and magnificent artwork. Engage in meaningful conversations with people you do not agree with. Your worldview will expand…
Breathe…
When life becomes overwhelming, take a quiet moment to just breathe. Listen to yourself inhale deeply, followed by a long exhale. This brief moment will sustain you through your craziest time in life. Just breathe…
Demands…
Life is full of deadlines and demands. Manage your time well. Learn to say no tactfully. Prioritize the important people in your life. None of us is guaranteed tomorrow…
Connecting The Dots…
“…you have to trust that the dots will connect in your future.” – Steve Jobs
