Whats up Happier Dentist fam!

This month flew by quick! In no time we'll literally be flying somewhere just to hug our friends and eat a meal with turkey in it, but not until we mob all the candy in the closeout aisle the day after Halloween. 

Alright so lets get into it. Today, we are talking with Dr. Diana Liu. Her story involves feeling burnt out since high school and adding to that ALL the stresses of dentistry life on top of it - to finding something that could bring her levels of burnout down to zero and she noticed it first-hand from her own mom who was dealing with her own levels of burnout.

It's a conversation about finding that the yogi lifestlye in your dental world and including it for just 30 mins a day 1) doesn't prevent us from doing anything else and 2) it augments how we feel and move and ultimately, how we make money... so why not do it?

And then, why retreats are a transformational experience due to the immersion of positivity and support paired with learning.

See you next month! We'll be talking about BURNOUT of course, and how a TOXIC WORK ENVIRONMENT plays a role in all of this.

Be well,
The Happier Dentist

Whats good Happier Dentist fam! Having a great week so far?


Today, we discuss burnout and how it affects our state of mind and the way we show up as a dentist. This leads to other areas of our lives, whether that means as a mother or father, a team leader, a partner, you name it. 

Our guest Dr. Jessica Metcalfe (@alchemistdentist) shares her journey of someone who has gone through the multiple stages of burnout that dentists often endure and gives us permission to just take a pause when stress begins to creep up, and also to have some humor in our lives so we can be true to ourselves while at work.


Dr. Metcalfe understands "Imposter Phenomenon" and even Perfectionism is a common experience for dentists to have and has been helping dentists through a variety of platforms with easy and actionable advice on how to prevent or counteract what this can do to our mental health.

Hows it going Happier Dentist fam! Today's episode is all about the magic and benefits of including fitness into your daily routine.

In this episode, our guest, Nick Kapande tells his story of finding and seeking mentorship and how fitness ultimately changed his life. I think his story imparts a lot of pearls of wisdom here. I look to him and his students (that are of all ages and successful in many areas of life), for mentorship and inspiration when it comes to showing up with a great attitude and staying committed to being healthy. 

It is clear why having self-discipline will allow you to feel good about yourself in a meaningful way and be able to use that to enable us as doctors and healers, to be able to perform better at work.

Dive into the episode for some guidance on how fitness relates to mental health, as well as hear about helpful stretches we as dentists can use to keep us feeling loose.
