The Making Of Spotlight: Dr. Toni Torres + Her Startup Journey

Hi Friends!!

One of my favorite parts of this community is getting to witness—and celebrate—the incredible journeys of dentists who dream big and take the leap into ownership. This week, I’m beyond excited to highlight one of our very own: Dr. Toni Torres and the launch of her new practice, Bloom Dental Co.

Bloom Dental Co. is more than a dental office. It’s a vision brought to life—a place where dentistry meets intention, design, and community. Watching Dr. Torres step into her role as a startup founder has been nothing short of inspiring. From the first spark of an idea to the building of her dream, she’s embodied courage, grit, and authenticity—everything The Making Of is all about.

On the podcast this week, I sat down with Dr. Torres to talk about her inspiration for Bloom, what challenges surprised her most, how she stayed grounded through the rollercoaster of building a practice, and what she’s most proud of today.

Her story is a reminder that building a startup isn’t just about dentistry—it’s about creating a space that reflects your values, connects with your community, and gives patients something to believe in.

For me, moments like this reinforce why I started The Making Of in the first place. To see dentists like Dr. Torres not just survive the startup journey, but truly bloom into their purpose—it’s everything.

Please join me in cheering on Dr. Torres and Bloom Dental Co. as they begin this new chapter.

I know her journey will inspire so many of you who are dreaming, planning, or already building your own startup practices.
