TTS- 145 All Comes Down to Me w/Dr. Farokh Jiveh

Описание: In this powerful episode of The Tooth Sleuth Podcast, Greg Essenmacher sits down with cosmetic dentist and educator Dr. Farokh Jiveh for a deeply honest conversation about personal transformation, leadership, and what truly drives patient connection and case acceptance.
Dr. J shares his journey from outward success and inner burnout to alignment, clarity, and purpose—and how that shift changed everything from how he leads his team to how patients experience care.
This episode goes far beyond techniques and procedures. It’s about presence, energy, listening, and why dentistry is ultimately a human experience before it’s ever a clinical one.
If you’ve ever felt successful on paper but disconnected in practice—or wondered why some teams and doctors thrive while others struggle—this conversation will resonate.

🔑 Key Topics Covered

Why leadership always starts with self-leadership
How inner chaos shows up in your practice and your team

Why patients will tell you their treatment plan—if you’re present
Alignment, energy, and their impact on case acceptance
