About

Dr. Camden Brown

So glad you are here!

Here’s a bit about me…

I am a mother of two magical, magnetic children

A former orthodontic practice owner who sold my office after 8 years and then worked at a flower farm to reset

A coach with a deep desire to help others

A nature lover who listens to the whispers of the trees

An eternal optimist who believes we are all already whole

An explorer who loves a good adventure

A creative who enjoys getting lost in my work

A serious coffee lover and excessive intaker

And, above all, a person who believes in the good of our world

I believe that leaders deserve to feel grounded, fulfilled, and at ease—

to create a career where they feel whole and resourced

My mission is to help you achieve this.

My story

For Years, I Climbed the Mountain I Chose in College...

By 30, I was a Harvard graduate, orthodontic practice owner, homeowner, and new mom.

I was exhausted.

Every day felt like a race—

Rushing from home to work and back again, barely catching my breath. I missed key moments with my kids, felt anxious, and lived in a state of overwhelm.

The truth was, I didn’t enjoy running my own practice and I felt stretched too thin.

I loved all the roles, but not all of them at once—business owner, doctor, mom, wife.

By the time I got home, I felt like a shell of a person—emotionally drained, with nothing left to give my family.

I didn’t want to wake up one day with my kids grown and realize I’d missed it all.

My Perspective: I’ve Been There

I’ve had all the experiences:

Working as an associate.
Owning a practice.
Being an independent contractor.
Working in corporate environments.

Each chapter taught me something valuable about the challenges and realities professionals face.

My coaching approach is about slowing down and reconnecting to yourself—your sense of grounding, play, love, and connection.

It’s about learning to honor who you are right now while building a life and career that feels aligned with your values and nervous system.

In 2021, I made a decision: I sold my practice, and we moved closer to family.

I didn’t know what my path forward looked like, so I gave myself permission to pause. To reset.

You will never guess my first job after selling…

I spent time working on a flower farm,

picking daffodils in the soft morning light.

Slowly, I started peeling away the layers of stress and expectations. I let go of unnecessary tasks, reconnected with my emotions, and slowed down. For the first time in a long time, I felt present again.

Through this process, I began to rediscover who I was outside of orthodontics.

That journey led me to coaching. I wanted to support people like me: high-achieving professionals navigating anxiety, overwhelm, and the pressures of “doing it all.”

I wanted to help others honor their nervous systems, build careers that feel aligned, and reconnect to their true selves.

Daily reflections for a more grounded, fulfilling life and career

As I put on my make-up this morning, I experimented with my daughter's bronzer. Whoa- too dark! Not good! No worries, I thought, as I wiped it off and started over. I thought, "This is step 2!" In all of my coaching, I take 3 clients through 3 key steps: 1) ATTUNE: Get quiet, tune into your body, heart, gut, intuition, revisit your values, drop into a calm nervous system 2) EXPAND: From this calm state you begin to play! Your mind begins to see opportunity, fun, and joy. You get curious. Life and work begin to feel exciting. 3) BECOME: In this key step we merge. You become that which you desire. You step into the new role, life, career, existence. Does this resonate?

Offering a mindset shift today to not think of your business as an extension of you, but rather as an entity outside of you. When you think of it like a plant that you are watering and nurturing, and growing, your values through, you can withstand criticism and the ups and downs.#doctors #dentist #entrepreneur #businessmindset

Research from the blue zones where people live to be over 100 shows that connections with friends and family is one of the most important characteristics. In addition, losing touch with friends and family listed as one of the primary regrets of the dying. Today I am sharing a binder that I made to reflect on my present and past relationships. #connections #stress #richlife #love #dentists #doctors

Getting unstressed is the key to living your rich life. When you’re stressed and in a state of activation in your nervous system, your mind is not going to recognize all of us beautiful rich life components that are already around you. When we can drop into a state of relaxation, calm, curiosity, and joy, suddenly all of the beautiful things that were already there come to mind… the bird singing, your kids playing. The question for you today is what do you need to shift in order to let go of some stress? Are there strength that you’re not leaning into? Are there weaknesses that you were trying very hard to compensate for instead of delegating them to someone better suited? Is there a shift in your schedule that you want to but are afraid to do? I believe you owe it to yourself to live your richest life. #richlife #dentist #Doctor #overwhelm #stress
