Sydology 101

Vulnerability, Trust, and Team Building with Dr. Peter Dinh

Listen Later

What happens when a dentist, business owner, and dad of (almost) three joins forces with a recovering background troll-turned-host? Pure magic.

In this episode of Sydology 101, Sydney chats with Dr. Peter Dinh—practice owner, performance coach, and self-proclaimed future “Girl Dad”—to connect about the real stuff: balancing family, business, and your own sanity. From navigating parenthood with an internal medicine doc wife, to building a high-functioning, self-led team, Peter brings transparency, intention, and heart to the mic.

What we dive into:

  • How Peter and his wife intentionally designed their careers around time, not just income
  • Why vulnerability isn’t a weakness—it’s a superpower for team growth
  • How to actually build a strong team culture (hint: one team member at a time)
  • The role of health (especially gut health!) in leadership and showing up at 100%
  • A very real talk on what “collaboration” and “communication” should look like between team members and practice owners
  • What team members can do TODAY to grow into better leaders (yes, we said WWMD—What Would Mark Do?)
  • Why sharing a funny tow truck story can cause a total team shutdown—and what Sydney learned from it
  • Morning huddle magic, team retreats, and that one golden rule for sustainable practice success

    • Whether you’re a dentist, a team member, or someone trying to build something bigger than yourself, this episode brings all the insight with just the right dose of humor.
