TTS118- Glenn Vo: Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness

Life, Liberty, and the Pursuit of Happiness

In this episode of the Tooth Sleuth Podcast, Greg sits down with Dr. Glenn Vo—dentist, entrepreneur, and founder of Nifty Thrifty Dentists—for a candid and wide-ranging conversation about success, mindset, and the importance of staying aligned with your values.

Dr. Vo opens up about the power of morning routines, the quiet strength of stillness, and why real success is about more than just production numbers. The two explore how dentists can lead with intention, avoid burnout, and build lives that feel as good as they look on paper.

You’ll hear powerful reflections on grace, self-forgiveness, and what it really means to pursue happiness—not just in dentistry, but in every area of life.

• Routines that ground you—and when to break them

• Letting go of perfectionism and learning to forgive yourself

• Anchoring to your “North Star” in business and life
