Keynote Speakers

Dr Mahrukh Kwaja

Dentist, Positive Psychologist, Mind Ninja Founder

Dr. Mahrukh Khwaja is a dentist, positive psychologist, accredited mindfulness teacher, and the founder of Mind Ninja, an award-winning wellness startup dedicated to improving mental health and resilience among dental professionals. With nothing of its kind currently available in the dental industry, she envisioned a system of support that, just like daily brushing and flossing, took a preventive maintenance approach to mental health. Drawing on the neuroscience of well-being, and positive psychology, she developed Mind Ninja as a solution that would help fellow dental professionals build mental resilience, foster connection and meaning, and thrive.

Mind Ninja’s comprehensive range of training, coaching, and wellness products, including the signature Mind Flossing Toolkit, have been implemented by a diverse range of organisations, including NHS Health England, Unilever, Colgate, King’s College London, Acteon, British Dental Association, and the Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow. Dr. Khwaja has been named Top 50 in Dentistry three years in a row (2023, 2022 and 2021) by FMC for her work on Mental Health in Dentistry. She is also the author of the book ‘Resilience and Well-being for Dental Professionals’, published by Wiley-Blackwell. Dr Khwaja has been featured as a well-being expert for The Sun, Daily Express, Marie Claire, Conde Nast Travel and iNews.
