About Dr. Fern
Hey there!
Dr. Fern is our boss lady and founding principal of Beacon Cove Dental.
She is a dental surgeon, yoga & embodiment teacher, keynote speaker and educator.
She practices and teaches “Dentistry with Heart” – even the most nervous and phobic clients leave her room feeling empowered to have any procedure.
Having 21 years of experience in dentistry, with most of them constantly upskilling in advanced specialities, Fern is renowned for transforming smiles both in health reconstruction and cosmetic dentistry and transforming patient’s trust and confidence in themselves to laugh out loud more often.
She coaches and mentors thousands of female dentists from the USA, Canada, Australia, NZ, Europe and UK through her online programs, retreats and workshops on how to STOP STRESS and MAKE MORE of their life as female leaders.
She is obsessed with helping medicine women bring the FEM into the healing space of dentistry and to help themselves first in order to heal their patients with HEART and lead their teams with HEART.
Dr. Fern is obsessed with building long lasting patient relationships and changing the way dentistry is practiced into full Wholelistic - mind body health.
Dr Fern loves to replenish her own cup by playing with Phoenix, her daughter and two fur kids. She loves to move her body with yoga, dancing (with the occasional hoop), singing and immerse herself in fantasy and personal growth books.
Mentor.
Teacher.
Speaker.
I came ‘by boat’ to Australia as a 2 year old refugee. I was Vietnamese born, but now am an Aussie at heart.
My hardworking migrant parents pushed me to ‘succeed’.
And the only way they knew how was to hustle and work ridiculously hard.
So, I did too. I graduated as a young dentist at 22 and hustle I did.
By 29, I climbed the medical ladder to be a dental boss lady.
And I worked 7 days endlessly, thinking that my worth was tied to my output.
I was now a business owner, boss lady, practice manager - with absolutely no real training in this except being a dentist.
Six months in, I had a major break down.
I was burned out with constant searing physical pain, financial stress, a relationship breakdown and debilitating anxiety attacks.
On the outside it looked like I had done my parent’s sacrifice proud.
But I had never been more unhappy and debilitated by stress.
However, my breakdown was also a true breakthrough: in hitting rock bottom I realised the most important investment I can make is in myself, even before my business.
It was the discovery of SELF-LOVE.
Which I always had confused with SELFISH.
And there I discovered a true thirst to growing myself first.
To change ME.
And when I changed, my world changed around me.
My breakdown was my breakthrough.
I found a way to work 2 days instead of 7 and still keep the same income.
To become an empowered leader and hire an amazing team.
As such I was able to create 2 thriving companies from ground up, focussed on success with more Yin.
My private dental clinic in Melbourne, where I practise as a business owner, not operator, and teach healing patients and leading teams with HEART using a deeply feminine approach.
The first global online training for Medicine Women (dentist, doctors, health practitioners) that helps them STOP STRESS and MAKE MORE of their lives - more wealth, joy and freedom.
“Change you.
And watch your world change.
Promise.”
— Dr. Fern
Through my online mentoring programs, live events and mastermind retreat, hundreds of medicine women globally tap into their natural feminine super powers, opening their innate intuition and wisdom.
They receive the step by step ROADMAP on how to STOP STRESS to make more of their lives first - more wealth, joy, energy, freedom.
I believe, the world needs you to rise and step into your potential and power.
To live the life of your choosing, that YOU love, not one that was chosen for you.
To transform our medical system that needs more of your nurturing, caring FEM powers.
To help our patients transform and heal because you helped them believe this.
But you can’t serve others before filling Yourself.
Change you - reclaim you.
And watch your world change.
Promise.
“When women come together, magic happens.”
