Meet the Leadership

Behind Thrive Masterminds

Powered by Purpose. Driven by Vision.

At the core of Thrive Masterminds is a leadership team relentlessly committed to transformation, not just for practices, but for the people who lead them.

Our founder, Argentina Moreno, is more than a strategist, she’s a visionary with fire in her soul and two decades of hard-earned experience in the dental industry. Her belief is simple yet radical: leadership isn’t about titles, it’s about impact.

Backed by a team with decades of combined expertise in business development, operational systems, team training, and performance coaching, Thrive isn’t just built on knowledge, it’s built on real-world execution. We don’t just teach leadership—we live it, model it, and embed it into the practices we serve.

We’re not your consultants. We’re your partners in growth.

We work shoulder-to-shoulder with your team to align your vision, build your systems, and drive long-term, sustainable success and deliver results.

An Arizona State University alumna with over two decades of impact in the dental industry, she’s led regional sales teams, turned underperforming practices into thriving businesses, and redefined what leadership looks like in modern healthcare. From Sales Rep to Business Development Specialist, to Regional Trainer, and now CEO—Argentina’s journey is proof that vision, execution, and courage create extraordinary outcomes.

As Founder of Thrive Masterminds and Thrive Dental Partners, she leads two powerhouse brands built to help healthcare professionals lead with clarity, confidence, and culture at the core. Through Thrive, she has helped scale over 100 practices, trained hundreds of leaders, and continues to transform the culture of healthcare from the inside out.

To Argentina, leadership isn’t a title— it’s a responsibility to elevate others, ignite belief, and bring out the best in every human connection. Her legacy is more than business. It’s a movement, rooted in rising higher, breaking ceilings, and proving that where you begin will never limit how far you can go.

She doesn’t just build businesses, she builds belief.

"Leadership is a responsibility to do more for others, we are here to give.”
