Self-Improvement

Season 1

Episode 08: The majority of our plans have never gone according to the plan.

Drs Galen and Davina Detrik discusses the challenges of expanding into new responsibilities and the need to let go of certain tasks in order to take on more. He emphasizes the concept of 'killing your darlings' to make room for growth and new opportunities.

Episode 07: What does THRIVE actually do around here?

Drs. Galen & Davina Detrik talk about the upside of gate keeping, the downside of being a lone wolf, and why they choose to pay for friends.

Episode 06: Choosing The Hard Life.

The most successful people in the world don’t drive the same cars, wake up at the same time, nor even read the same books. In fact, it’s not what they share in common, but rather what sets them apart… dedication to a hard life. In this episode, Drs. Galen & Davina Detrik break down the ways in which dentists self-sabotage their ability to THRIVE and why controlled pain is very different from involuntary suffering.

Episode 05: Why There's A TWEAK in TEAMWORK.

Drs. Galen & Davina discuss the bold and unusual goals for Team VIDA in 2024 (hint: neither clinical nor financial), why leaps of faith are simply adjustments in perception, and how Dr. Devin might be an imaginary frenemy.

Episode 04: Becoming An Overnight Success... In 40 Years.

Ever wonder how someone else got to the top of the mountain faster, even though you struck out on the 'trail of success' sooner? There are good mindsets, but also bad ones. Today we talk about two deceptive tendencies we all have, called martyrdom & magical thinking.

Episode 03: When the team looks for leadership, are you looking with them?

Drs. Galen & Davina talk about the woes and wins of steering the ship, managing people you care about, and critical advice to avoid burnout.

Episode 02: Asking permission to lead?

The end of the year can feel ho-hum. We're talking tolerance, leadership, and creating a vision for 2024.
