Favorite quotes of the episode:  “Most people are saying, ‘Once I get to someplace other than right now, I'll be happy.' And that's where our suffering comes from.” “The key to life is the ability to be able to stay centered with all of it.” “Be an observer of your mind.” “Discomfort is nothing more than an inner vibration…and I don't have to make that feeling go away.” “Pain is part of life, suffering is a choice.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Joanna Kleinman from Dethroning Your Inner Critic to discuss how to dethrone our inner critics! She is a licensed psychotherapist, a national workshop leader, and best-selling author with more than 22 years of experience working in private practice with clients both locally and all over the world via zoom.  She created the online transformational program called “Dethroning Your Inner Critic™, and podcast. It is an approach that centers around her groundbreaking M.I.N.D Method, which consists of examining the habitual and conditioned thoughts and beliefs in our minds that have been playing on a repetitive loop for our whole lives and are as transparent as breathing.  She teaches clients to rewire the automatic hardwiring in their minds, not by changing the conditioned thoughts, but by breaking the habit of giving energy and attention to the conditioned thoughts and beliefs.  The M.I.N.D Method is one-of-a-kind and its foundation is guided by the unconventional idea that you don't need a lifetime to learn, master, and then change the processes of the mind.  Most people try to change the external circumstances of their lives in order to think and feel the contentment and satisfaction they desire.  Her methods focus on changing from the inside out.  This is the type of transformation that leads you to ‘waking up' and viewing the world in a different way.

The question is do you want to meet the whole tiger or just its tail.” “If you are healthy and have gotten your booster by Thanksgiving or Christmas time, I think you are in a pretty good position to travel.” “The risk for catching the virus really is the air exchange whether you are in a building or in a plane.” “In the vaccine world, it's almost unheard of to get a side-effect with a second or third dose in adults.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Dr. Jonathan Baktari to answer some of your most pressing questions about COVID 19.

She very quickly learned to appreciate the profound impact an unconscious leader has on people and teams became abundantly clear, as did the critical importance and necessity for her to immediately begin evolving as a leader.

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “Coaching was driving measurable outcomes, not only for patients but also helping clinicians.” “The average interruption time for clinicians is 11 seconds.  It's been studied 7 times and every time it's studied, we interrupt [patients] quicker. Only 10% of the time we do a teach-back to ensure patient understanding… and miss empathic opportunities about 90% of the time.” “…and I realized at that moment, that medicine is an extraordinary, purposeful instrument that occasionally, diagnoses, treats, and cures disease.” “The knowing to doing gap is a chasm, and effective organizations bridge the gap.” “You can't manage complex systems with complexity, they have to self-organize around simple principles that are easy to advocate for.” “To be a champion, you have to take action to make the things around you better.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Dr. Stephen Beeson to talk about the importance of having a purpose-driven career.

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “It all comes down to people process and technology.” “Healthcare has to realize that if you don’t start running your business like a business then it won’t be relevant.” “Price transparency is important for the consumer too.” “One thing that COVID has taught us is that we need to be as lean and efficient as possible.” “I don’t control outcomes, I only control actions, so what are my actions going to be?” “It’s amazing what happens when we get the lifestyle and the mission aligned with our values!” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Matt Seefeld. Matt is the Executive Vice President at MedEvolve, responsible for all RCM operations, data science, and workflow automation solutions and business development. He brings over 20 years of management consulting experience in the healthcare industry with extensive expertise in process improvement programs and technology across the entire revenue cycle. Matt began his career with Stock & Associates and worked for both PricewaterhouseCoopers and Deloitte Consulting in their healthcare and life sciences practice lines. In 2007, he developed a business intelligence solution and founded Interpoint Partners, LLC, where he served as Chairman and CEO. In 2011, he sold his business to Streamline Health Solutions where he then served as Chief Strategist of Revenue Cycle and SVP of Solutions Strategy until 2014. Immediately prior to joining MedEvolve, Matt ran global sales for NantHealth. Additionally, Matt is the founder of myLifeLink, a virtual, global addiction and recovery community, and mobile application. He is also a board member and strategic advisor for a number of healthcare technology companies.

You have this incredible expertise and skill set in data science, workflow automation, and process improvement throughout the revenue cycle. How do you make this tangible to those of us who aren’t revenue cycle consultants?  What’s a revenue cycle? What are some really quick tangible solutions or quick checks that practices and businesses can do to see if they are on the right track or need to do some extra digging? What are the most common mistakes you see business owners make in this area? MyLifeLink Addiction Recovery Community   5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? The first thing I do is set my morning intentions and give myself 15 minutes to sit without technology, to meditate, say a prayer, and center myself for the day. Q2. What's your definition of Success? You grow when your opportunities exceed your capabilities.  Be in a career where you want to stretch yourself and continue to learn and grow.  Another big piece is balance, there’s more to life than just work. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? It’s realizing that I’m perfect the way I am. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? You control actions you don’t control outcomes and learning to listen more and speak less.  I can be equally or more effective without traveling. Realizing that what I thought I was supposed to do wasn’t what I needed to do. Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? Practice slowing down.  It’s not true that the harder you work the better the outcomes you are going to get. The other thing is balance between personal and professional life.  You don’t have to work a 10-hour day.  What does 5 hours of productive time look like?

5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? I’m a night owl, so I rely on an evening routine.  I make a personal and professional list. We are mindful of people’s time and stick to a schedule.  I don’t multitask.  I practice ‘just this and then’ so I bring my full self to each project. I also give myself some time and space in areas where I need it. Q2. What's your definition of Success? For me, mindfulness is the key to success for me. Someone once shared with me there are three versions of life, the almost, the most and the utmost so I’m always striving for the utmost life. Live in the accomplishments vs. surviving the hours. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? Happiness is helping people find that spark inside of them. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? For my personal life I would say that I’m the only person who sets the limits on my life. In my business, I would say that emotional decisions make you weak.

He is the co-author of Healing American Healthcare, a book that describes a universal healthcare plan for the United States that would actually save our country $1 trillion per year. Ed recently founded the Healing American Healthcare Coalition to keep healthcare professionals informed on important research and industry news.   5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success?  I make a plan for the day.   I usually have 5 or 6 things I want to do. I do a little bit of research in the morning and when the weather is nice every Thursday I play golf.  Q2. What's your definition of Success? I think success comes from being passionate about what you care about. It’s not monolithic, my relationships with my family and associate are all important to me and it’s about life balance. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? I think balance and doing the things you love to do. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? I wish I would have known more about social media and how it works earlier on. Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? If they are happy with where they are, keep doing it. If they need to make a change, they need to have the resolve and courage to make that change.

5 Questions Segment Q1.

To give myself what I really need, physically, energetically, and emotionally. Q2. What's your definition of Success? The fulfillment of my purpose while being aligned with my true self. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? The acknowledgment and appreciation of what is right in front of you. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago?

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “Food is everywhere; it is the easiest way to attempt to escape.” “It’s not about being the food police and perfectionists; it’s about the energy and the stories we attach to our food choices.” Episode Overview In this episode, I talk with Jessica Procini. Jessica is on a mission to help high-achieving women heal the roots of their emotional eating so they can use food as fuel rather than a way to cope, soothe and attempt to escape their busy, stressful life. From over a decade of research and her own personal emotional eating journey, Jessica consciously created her uniquely effective Escape From Emotional Eating® process and programs because Overeaters Anonymous didn't resonate with her, and the 932 hours she spent in therapy never helped her end her fight with food. Jessica knew there needed to be a different kind of support, one that got to the roots of her emotional eating.   Jessica and her work have received awards from the Institute of Psychology of Eating three years in a row. She has appeared in various media outlets such as ABC, CBS, and MindBodyGreen, just to name a few. TOPICS Emotional Eating is the dirty secret of successful women. How emotional eating blocks women from reaching higher levels of success. Is stress eating just another way of numbing ourselves out and sabotaging our success? How do we know if we are sabotaging our success even though we are supposed to have it all together as otherwise successful professionals?

5 Questions Segment Q1. We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? I set my day up by doing the hardest stuff first. I love to prioritize my day based on intensity, energy, and what’s that big rock that I can knock off the list first.  Q2. What's your definition of Success? Success for me is my drug of choice when it comes to my work, it’s really about making an impact is what makes me happy professionally and not forgetting to be grateful. Ability to pivot quickly and find a new way to make an impact. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? Friends, Family, Adventure, Home, Food, Fun. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? To attack fear head-on and spend as much time as possible outside of my comfort zone. As Branson says, "Say yes and then figure out how." I’ve learned to embrace the jitters and reframe them as butterflies of excitement. Attack those fears right away.  Possibility lives outside your comfort zone not inside. It’s fun to grow and expand and continue to evolve. Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? Enjoying the journey is something I don’t see enough of. They are so caught up in the minutia and pain points and we need to enjoy the journey and not forget about our wellbeing. Play hard, enjoy the journey and stay in a place of gratitude.

Favorite quotes of the episode:  “Embrace the bumps, the bruises, and being authentic. What I’ve learned in my career is that people respond to authentic leaders.

I got up at 5:30 today and I just take a minute and check in with myself, what is my heart, my gut telling me? Am I Centered, Open, Resilient, and Energized? It’s time for prayer. Then I’ll have coffee, go for a walk, some exercise and listen to some music or with an app. Journaling and remain open to ideas. Q2. What's your definition of Success?

We know that the most successful and happy people have a morning routine, what do you do each morning or evening that sets your day up for success? Gratitude and reach out to people I care about and exercise routine. Q2. What's your definition of Success? I used to think it was external and it’s not, it’s internal. My definition is doing what I want, when I want, with who I want, as often as I want. Q3. What's your definition of Happiness? It goes back to being satisfied. A little dark chocolate or watch movies that make me laugh, spend time with people who make me feel good. The joy of giving a random act of kindness makes a difference they add up. Q4. What do you know now that you wish you would have known 10 years ago? Internal satisfaction and happiness does not come from external means. Chasing the zeros doesn’t work. It’s all about living in the moment and making the moment count. Q5. What do you think is the biggest issue facing busy professionals today? The itty-bitty shitty committee. It’s work-life integration.  How do we practice more kindness for more smiles and less frowns?
