He opens up about the pressure of family expectations, the immigrant hustle to get into U.S. dental school, and the profound realization that he loves his work not just for the procedure, but for the people. In this heartwarming conversation, Dr. Hassan reveals how he helps patients overcome deep-seated dental anxiety—often stemming from childhood trauma—without always resorting to IV sedation. He discusses the importance of human connection, why “core values” are the foundation of any successful business, and how true success is defined by inner peace, not just financial gain.

Dr. Lees shares his incredible career trajectory—from computational physics to the CDC, to becoming a volunteer firefighter and Ironman triathlete. He explains the massive problem of price opacity in medicine, why healthcare debt is the leading cause of bankruptcy (and why it’s not dischargeable), and how his app empowers patients to “shop” for care just like they would for a car or groceries. By crowdsourcing data, Dr. Lees hopes to create an efficient market that drives costs down and quality up, giving power back to the patient.

Travis shares his diverse background—from farmhand and Navy sonar technician to field service and college instructor—and how listening to younger generations (Millennials and Gen Z) radically shifted his perspective on work. He argues that the “we are a family” rhetoric is a manipulative tool used by companies to extract more labor for less respect. Travis and Justin discuss the harsh realities of profit-driven decisions, such as billion-dollar companies refusing to air-condition warehouses, and why “market competitive” wages often just mean “the lowest we can get away with.” This episode is a call to arms for employment ethics, urging workers to treat jobs as contracts, not identities, and empowering leaders to actually care for the humans who build their profits.
