Hi, I'm Eric Recker.

Dental Practice Owner. Chaos Reducer. Life Maximizer.

 I help medical entrepreneurs eliminate chaos, find clarity, and reclaim what matters most.

Make space to breathe.

I’m not your typical practice consultant.

I’m a dentist who built and ran an 18-person practice while chasing accomplishments, battling burnout, and trying to prove I was enough.

After nearly losing it all to chaos and overwhelm, I discovered a better way.

Now I help other medical entrepreneurs reduce chaos and find clarity without sacrificing what matters most.

So how does a former endurance athlete and dental practice owner end up coaching other medical professionals to reclaim their lives?

Here’s how we can partner together.

Speaking I help folks identify and eliminate the chaos holding them back from the life they want.

Let’s end the chaos and start building a practice (and life) you love.

I spent years believing I wasn’t good enough, trying to prove my worth through endless achievements:

  • Completed multiple Ironman triathlons
  • Rode across Iowa three times (250+ miles in a single day)
  • Conquered a 7-mile open-water swim
  • Climbed Mount Kilimanjaro
  • Completed 29,029 vertical feet in 36 hours (climbing the same mountain 13 times)
  • Managed a thriving 3-doctor, 18-person dental practice
  • Served on multiple boards
  • Led international mission trips

But the finish lines never brought the satisfaction I was seeking. Instead, they left me with:

  • Ignored chest pains and heart palpitations
  • Debilitating panic attacks
  • Strained relationships
  • Constant chaos
  • A life that looked successful on paper but felt hollow inside

The turning point came on top of Mount Princeton in Colorado.

Standing at 14,000 feet, a revelation hit me: “If you don’t know why you’re climbing the mountain, you’re not going to find the answer at the top.

That moment began my journey from chaos to clarity. I spent the next seven years rebuilding my life around what truly matters.

Faith, family, and helping others avoid the same pitfalls.

Today, I still love a good challenge, but I do it with purpose and presence, not to prove my worth.

Now, I help other medical entrepreneurs reduce chaos in their lives and practices so they can build success that doesn’t require escape.

Eric’s outlook on life is infectious, “Winning the Now” is much more than just a catchphrase or a slogan. It is truly how he lives and how I strive to live. Through our many conversations, Eric has helped me realize some of my habits preventing me from doing just that. He didn’t preach at me, he didn’t drill me down with memorization chants, he talked with me, but more importantly, he listened to me. With his guidance, I have reached a better place, not only in my career but in my personal life. I will be forever thankful that our paths have crossed and that I can call him a coach, nay, a friend.
