What do dentistry, raising cattle, and real estate have in common? For Dr. B. Octavio Elizondo, they're all part of the bigger picture.

This week on Humpday Happy Hour™, we're joined by Dr. Elizondo, a lifelong Texan, dentist, entrepreneur, and cattle rancher whose career has been built around serving his community, continuing to learn, and pursuing the things he's passionate about.

After discovering dentistry while attending Texas A&M University, Dr. Elizondo went on to graduate with honors from the UT Health San Antonio School of Dentistry in 1998. Today, he runs Howdy Dental, where he focuses on compassionate, conservative care while maintaining a particular interest in implant dentistry and orthodontics.

And dentistry is just one part of his story.

Outside of the practice, Dr. Elizondo operates a cattle ranch where he raises and shows registered Brahman and Red Brangus cattle. He's also involved in real estate, creating a unique "triple brand" that brings together his professional career, business interests, and life outside of dentistry.

With more than 1,700 hours of continuing education completed in the past 24 months alone, Dr. Elizondo is also a strong believer in lifelong learning and continually expanding what he can offer his patients.

Join us as we talk dentistry, business, ranching, real estate, continuing education, and what it looks like to build a life around multiple passions.

Join us every Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET for Humpday Happy Hour™.

What happens when a life that looks successful from the outside no longer feels fulfilling on the inside?

This week on Humpday Happy Hour™, we're joined by Dr. Dominic Nuosce for an honest and deeply personal conversation about health, faith, purpose, leadership, and finding the courage to begin again.

After building a successful private practice in Frisco, Texas, Dr. Nuosce never expected that his career—and his life—would come to a sudden stop. A challenging two-year journey forced him to step away from practice, focus on his physical and emotional health, and take a hard look at the things he had been consciously ignoring for years.

What he discovered changed the way he views success, leadership, and fulfillment.

Dr. Nuosce shares how he came to understand the difference between happiness and joy, how competitiveness had replaced purpose in his life, and why being successful by the traditional measures of dentistry doesn't necessarily mean you're living a fulfilling life. He also discusses the leadership values that shaped his return to the clinical arena and his commitment to building a more purpose-driven approach to business and life.

This conversation goes beyond dentistry. It's about what happens when we stop measuring our lives solely by what we've achieved and start asking whether we're living according to the values we truly believe in.

Dr. Nuosce's story is one of stepping away, rebuilding, and ultimately finding a renewed sense of purpose—and a reminder that sometimes the most difficult chapters can lead us toward the life we're meant to live.

Join us every Wednesday at 8:00 p.m. ET for Humpday Happy Hour™.
