In recent years, Silicon Valley has imagined for us a new way of life – one where almost anyone can be a twenty or thirty-something-year-old with a supernatural glow, toned physique, understated intelligence, and a superabundance of vitality. This is not reality for most people, even for the twenty or thirty-something-year-olds, but medicine and technology originally intended to help people achieve baseline health are increasingly being leveraged to close the gap. This raises the question: what is medicine for? Is medicine about restoring people to some definition of “normal” health? And if so, what about all the people contentedly living in bodies considered medically abnormal?Our guest is Devan Stahl, author, clinical ethicist, and professor of bioethics and religion at Baylor University. Professor Stahl received her PhD in Health Care Ethics from St. Louis University, before completing her Master of Divinity at Vanderbilt University. Her scholarship focuses on disability theology and bioethics, and her most recent books include Disability's Challenge to Theology (2022) and Bioenhancement Technologies and the Vulnerable Body (2023). In addition to her scholarly work, Stahl volunteers as a clinical ethicist with the Supportive and Palliative Care Team at her local hospital. Over the course of our conversation, we discuss whether it is the role of a clinical ethicist to determine what is “right” in a given situation – and if so, how that is accomplished. We explore how Silicon Valley's promotion of the “optimized” human raises questions about the purpose of medicine, and the various ways medicine defines the idea of “normal” health. Stahl shares her experience in the healthcare system as someone with multiple sclerosis, cautioning that some providers are more comfortable focusing on the digitized version of someone's disability than on the person themselves. Together, we imagine a doctor's role not just in restoring patients to normality, but guiding them to flourish.  In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:19 - The questions that have driven Stahl's academic career as a professor of bioethics and religion. 5:00 - The types of requests Stahl receives as a bioethicist at her local hospital.12:51 - How Silicon Valley is skewing public perception of “health” — and the questions this raises about the purpose of medicine.20:12 - Stahl's experience navigating uncomfortable and confusing medical encounters as a person with disability herself.25:24 - Stahl's take on the “purpose” of modern medicine.29:48 - Ways in which our society tends to value certain kinds of bodies over others. 39:36 - Imagining the role of physicians in helping patients flourish. 44:55 - How health care professionals can find deeper meaning in their work and lives.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Electronic Medical Records have transformed the way we practice health care, making patient data readily accessible to health care providers, facilitating collaboration within and across large medical teams, increasing transparency, and drastically improving the legibility of patient charts and prescriptions. But despite these benefits, many physicians cite the electronic medical record as a primary driver of burnout, pointing to the overwhelming volume of documentation it requires. In this episode, we explore how the launch of EMRs within the context of America's predominantly fee-for-service health care system led to the technology falling short of its promise — and how transitioning to value-based care models might redeem the technology, revitalize physicians, and recenter public health. Our guest on this episode is Farzad Mostashari, MD. After completing a degree in public health at Harvard, medical school at Yale, and residency at Massachusetts General Hospital, Dr. Mostashari spent over a decade working in public health: first for the CDC's Epidemic Intelligence Service and then for the New York City Department of Health. From 2009 to 2011, he served as the National Coordinator for Health IT at the Department of Health and Human Services where he helped oversee the nationwide transition from paper to electronic medical records. In 2014, he founded Aledade, a company that helps primary care physicians form value-based care networks in the US.  Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Mostashari shares how his childhood in Iran pushed him towards public health, how his experience watching his father being cared for in the hospital drove him towards medicine, and how he has spent his career in the liminal space between public health and medicine. We discuss the rollout of EMRs, and how fee-for-service payment models led to EMRs being optimized for documentation rather than patient care. We explore how value-based care not only solves the problem of over-documentation, but also better aligns the goals of patients, physicians, and even insurance companies. Dr. Mostashari maps out the progress we have made toward this kind of model and the hurdles we have to clear before we have a system that incentivizes preventing stroke as much as treating stroke. In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:35 - How Dr. Mostashari became drawn to the intersection between the intimate work of doctoring and the wide lens work of public health. 12:12 - Dr. Mostashari's experiences modernizing health IT systems and learning to optimize for the number of lives saved rather than the number of technological solutions implemented.16:05 - Dr. Mostashari's assessment of the rollout of the electronic medical record in the US.25:09 - How Aledade frees primary care physicians to prioritize patient outcomes and reduces the burden of EMR documentation.38:57 - What the US can learn from international health care systems. 41:00 - Challenges in transitioning to outcome-based models of primary care.50:30 - How Dr. Mostashari's medical training has shaped his career in public health. If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Three artists. One exhibition. A decade of friendship that turned into fuel for making braver work. Ty sits down with Vy Ngo and Eric Breish to explore how creative community shapes everything—from the courage to apply, to the way we process rejection, to the rituals that help us recover after the lights go down.We start with origin stories and the rush of seeing our pieces hang together at Art Center Waco's Amplified show. Then we dig into the practical spine of a thriving art practice: how to pick the right opportunities, why research beats volume, and how strong documentation (clear, well-lit photos and short videos) becomes your first studio visit. We talk about building a cohesive submission that tells a story instead of tossing in disconnected “greatest hits,” and we unpack the difference between galleries that simply move product and those that invest in your evolution.The conversation gets honest around critique and growth. Safe feedback from trusted artist friends can be uncomfortable and necessary—pushing you to clarify intent, separate your voice from influence, and keep evolving. When no arrives, confidence returns to the work itself. One pivotal story turns a painful rejection into a better fit with a smaller gallery that encouraged risk and led to the most personal show of a career. The lesson: alignment and patience create momentum.We also name the quiet crash after big openings—what we call post‑artum depression—and offer tools to navigate it: nature days, spiritual or wellness practices, journaling, and time with people who truly understand. Finally, we celebrate DIY paths and authentic networking. Show up for spaces you love without treating every hello like an angle. Be interested before trying to be interesting; your people will find you.If this resonates, follow, share with an artist who needs it, and leave a review so more creatives can find the show. Your support helps us keep bringing real conversations—and practical tools—to the studio.Vy Ngo: @vjngo_artEric Breish: @eric_breish_artSend us a message - we would love to hear from you!

In this episode of Big Blend Radio's "World of Art" Podcast, contemporary figurative artist and art historian Victoria Chick wraps up her three-part “Evolution of Art Materials” series with a fascinating glimpse into the history of pencils and drawing tools. From early silver wire to the discovery of graphite, this engaging conversation explores how natural resources have shaped artistic innovation for centuries. Victoria explains why pencils were once considered a military material, how erasers evolved, and what artists should know about lightfastness in colored pencils. The discussion also highlights the enduring connection between nature, chemistry, and creative expression, along with the role of art materials in restoration, education, and community engagement. Victoria Chick is the visionary behind the Southwest Regional Museum of Art & Art Center in Silver City, New Mexico, and is known for making art history accessible and engaging for artists and enthusiasts alike.

In this special episode of the podcast Le Bijou comme un Bisou, the “Coup de Cœur Créateur” playlist shines a spotlight on jewelry designer Julia Mosina and her iconic creation: the Peace Ring, an entirely handmade 999 silver filigree ring.Inspired by harmony and balance, the Peace Ring evokes a large, airy flower that naturally embraces the hand. Although it spans almost three fingers, it is surprisingly lightweight and semi-transparent. Delicate and organic, the ring allows light and air to pass through, subtly revealing the skin beneath. It makes a statement without being ostentatious — a refined, contemporary expression of quiet luxury.Julia Mosina's signature lies in her unique technique, developed over three years of experimentation. Positioned between traditional filigree and metal lace, her approach draws inspiration from textile practices such as weaving and knitting, but applied to fine silver wire shaped entirely by hand. Each piece requires patience, precision, and deep focus, with two to three days of meticulous craftsmanship needed to complete a single jewel.Her metal of choice is 999 silver, prized for its softness and flexibility, which she compares to textile. She also works with 14k and 18k gold, a more demanding material, as well as fine and precious gemstones including London blue topaz, turquoise, opals, pearls, and diamonds, delicately set within her airy structures.Based in Paris, Julia finds inspiration in the city's streets — especially the Rue de la Paix — as well as in luminous memories of Saint-Tropez. Each design carries the emotion of a place, a moment, an atmosphere.Founded in 2025, her brand embodies a clear vision: to celebrate strong, powerful, intelligent women in balance with themselves. Through solid metal transformed into delicate lace, the Peace Ring expresses feminine strength in its most refined form — a statement piece at the crossroads of textile art and contemporary fine jewelry.This special playlist will be updated with new episodes including my favorite creators to whom I award a special kiss like a jewel.

Over the past 160 episodes, two themes that have appeared repeatedly feel as relevant and urgent as ever are 1) the pros and dehumanizing cons of technology and 2) approaching suffering in the human experience. In this episode, we are excited to bring back a panel of notable past guests to discuss the interplay between medicine, suffering, technology, and the human experience. We are joined by historian Christine Rosen, PhD, philosopher Mikolaj Slawkowski-Rode, PhD, and palliative care physician Sunita Puri, MD. Rosen is a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute whose work is focused on American history, society and culture, technology and culture, and feminism. Slawkowski-Rode is an assistant professor of philosophy at the University of Warsaw and research fellow at the University of Oxford with a current emphasis on the philosophy of science and religion. Dr. Puri is a palliative care physician, associate professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, and author of the critically acclaimed book That Good Night (2019). As a panel, we consider a prominent aspect of the unwritten curriculum of medicine: how medicine often considers suffering and sorrow to be fixable and their eradication to be a metric of medical success. We explore ways digital technology can make our lives easier without making them better, and the pressing need to define and defend the (non-digital) human experience. We propose that the goal is not to eradicate all suffering, but to reduce needless suffering without denying the forms that accompany love, growth, and moral responsibility. When suffering is treated as an intolerable defect, we can become preoccupied with self-protection and less available to one another. The first and most important gift a caregiver can give is their undivided attention and the biggest mistake we can make in medicine is turning away from suffering. Finally, we ponder if for both patients and physicians, life, in the end, is meant to be a mystery.In this episode, you'll hear about: 6:37 – Unlearning preconceived perspectives on suffering, technology, and human experience. 13:08 – Engaging with digital technology critically instead of presuming that technological progress is inherently good.19:28 – Suffering as an irradicable and sometimes necessary element of the human condition.27:50 – Helping young terminal patients grapple with their diagnosis as a palliative care doctor. 36:36 – How the pursuit of immortality can lead to moral sickness.47:08 – How digital technologies are inciting a collective disembodiment from reality.53:15 – Practices that will positively impact the modern lived experience.Explore our guests' past episodes on The Doctor's Art: Human Experience in A Digital World | Christine Rosen, PhDA Philosophy of Grief | Mikolaj Slawkowski-Rode, PhDThe Beauty of Impermanence | Sunita Puri, MDIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show wherever you get your podcasts.

Most medical encounters are structured as transactions. The patient comes in with a specific complaint, the medical expert identifies a discrete problem, and a specific intervention is prescribed.But at the heart of a medical encounter is a story. When a patient comes in with a medical problem, the problem cannot be disentangled from their life's narrative — doing so risks hollowing out the essence of what it means to care for another person. Our guest on this episode is award-winning author, and primary care physician Suzanne Koven, MD. Following the completion of her residency at Johns Hopkins Hospital, Dr. Koven joined the faculty at Harvard Medical School and practiced primary care medicine at Massachusetts General for 32 years. In 2019, she became the inaugural Writer in Residence at Mass General. Her writings have been published broadly—including in The Boston Globe, The New England Journal of Medicine, The Lancet, and The New Yorker. As a teacher and public speaker, she highlights the relationship between literature and medicine, and is a powerful advocate for female medical trainees. In this episode, Dr. Koven shares her journey to medicine at a time when few women were represented in the field and why she finds her undergraduate English classes to be more relevant to her clinical work than her science classes. We discuss narrative medicine, its value to patients and physicians alike, and how the modern healthcare system struggles to value the patient story. Finally, Dr. Koven leaves us with her advice for up-and-coming trainees: find a place in medicine where you can be yourself – for your own good and for your patients'.In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:00 - Dr. Koven's motivations for going into primary care medicine 15:49 - The impact that Dr. Koven's English degree has had on her approach to medicine 19:36 - What narrative medicine is 24:34 - What is lost when human connection and human story are deprioritized within the practice of medicine 31:15 - The benefits doctors experience when cultivating an appreciation for the arts37:21 - How gender representation in medicine has shaped Dr. Koven's experience as a physician42:54 - The need for the culture of medicine to adapt to changing demographics in the medical workforceIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Story Transcript:No: En kald vintermorgen i Oslo, under et tykt teppe av snø, oppdaget Sigrid noe uventet da hun spaserte gjennom Vigeland Park.En: A cold winter morning in Oslo, under a thick blanket of snow, Sigrid discovered something unexpected as she strolled through Vigeland Park.No: Hun nøt stillheten i parken, omfavnet av de majestetiske skulpturene som så ut som de sov under snøen.En: She enjoyed the silence of the park, embraced by the majestic sculptures that seemed to be sleeping under the snow.No: Men blant de velkjente skulpturene var det noe annet, noe nytt.En: But among the well-known sculptures, there was something else, something new.No: En ukjent skulptur hadde dukket opp i løpet av natten.En: An unknown sculpture had appeared overnight.No: Den sto midt blant Gustav Vigelands mesterverk, og så ut til å ha vokst frem fra jorden som en hemmelighet.En: It stood amidst Gustav Vigeland's masterpieces and seemed to have grown from the ground like a secret.No: Sigrid, en kunsthistoriker med en brennende lidenskap for historier skjult i kunstverk, ble straks nysgjerrig.En: Sigrid, an art historian with a burning passion for stories hidden in artworks, became

onward that week, but the thought of the unknown artwork in the park held her back.No: Hun bestemte seg for å bli i Oslo lengre, i håp om å avdekke sannheten.En: She decided to stay in Oslo longer, hoping to uncover the truth.No: Parken var stille, bare lyden av snøen som knirket under føttene til de få menneskene som trosset kulden for å se skulpturen.En: The park was quiet, only the sound of the snow creaking under the feet of the few people who braved the cold to see the sculpture.No: Det var som om skulpturen hadde tiltrukket seg sine egne besøkende, som en magnet for nysgjerrighet.En: It was as if the sculpture had attracted its own visitors, like a magnet for curiosity.No: Sigrid dro til byens arkiver, men der fant hun ingen informasjon om den nye skulpturen.En: Sigrid went to the city archives, but there she found no information about the new sculpture.No: Ingen papirer, ingen registreringer, bare flere spørsmål.En: No papers, no records, just more questions.No: Hun snakket med de lokale, men heller ingen av dem visste noe.En: She talked to the locals, but none of them knew anything either.No: Ryktene begynte å svirre, og noen sa at skulpturen kanskje ville bli fjernet.En: Rumors began to swirl, and some said the sculpture might be removed.No: Det fikk Sigrid til å handle raskt.En: This prompted Sigrid to act quickly.No: Med kald vind som bet i kinnene hennes, besøkte Sigrid parken hver dag.En: With cold wind biting at her cheeks, Sigrid visited the park every day.No: Hun studerte hver detalj av skulpturen.En: She studied every detail of the sculpture.No: Da hun en dag befant seg nær foten av kunstverket, la hun merke til noe som alltid hadde vært der, men som tilsynelatende var usynlig inntil nå.En: One day, when she found herself near the base of the artwork, she noticed something that had always been there, but which seemed invisible until now.No: En inskripsjon, nesten borte under et tynt lag av snø og is.En: An inscription, almost hidden under a thin layer of snow and ice.No: Ordene pekte mot en eneboer, en ukjent kunstner som bodde i Oslos utkanten.En: The words pointed to a hermit, an unknown artist living on the outskirts of Oslo.No: Sigrid nølte ikke.En: Sigrid did not hesitate.No: Hun måtte finne denne kunstneren før det var for sent.En: She had to find this artist before it was too late.No: Veien til kunstnerens hjem var lang og ensom, men Sigrid visste at hun var nær ved å finne svar.En: The journey to the artist's home was long and lonely, but Sigrid knew she was close to finding answers.No: Da hun kom frem, møtte hun en mann som bekreftet hennes mistanker.En: When she arrived, she met a man who confirmed her suspicions.No: Skulpturen var en hyllest til en glemt historisk skikkelse, en som bare noen få mennesker kjente til.En: The sculpture was a tribute to a forgotten historical figure, one known only to a few.No: Kunstneren hadde skapt skulpturen i all hemmelighet for å bringe denne personen tilbake til lyset.En: The artist had created the sculpture in secret to bring this person back to the light.No: Sigrid ble rørt, og hun visste hva hun måtte gjøre.En: Sigrid was moved, and she knew what she had to do.No: Hun dokumenterte historien, detaljene, og begynte prosessen med å få skulpturen offisielt anerkjent.En: She documented the story, the details, and began the process of getting the sculpture officially recognized.No: Gjennom hennes arbeid ble skulpturen stående i parken, og Sigrid hadde endret sin rolle fra tilskuer til å være en aktiv beskytter av kunstens historie.En: Through her work, the sculpture remained in the park, and Sigrid had changed her role from spectator to an active protector of art history.No: Hun lærte å verdsette sin egen utholdenhet og hengivenhet, og forlot Oslo med en følelse av oppnåelse som varmet hver gang hun tenkte på den kalde, snødekte parken der alt begynte.En: She learned to appreciate her own perseverance and dedication and left Oslo with a sense of accomplishment that warmed her every time she thought of the cold, snow-covered park where it all began.

What if paint could hold fear, wonder, and the cosmos all at once? That question runs through this conversation with guest host Jamele Wright Sr., where we explore Jack Whitten's radical break from gesture and the relentless search to make painting enough on its own terms. From turning acrylic into “glass” to trapping forms on a truly flat plane, we trace how Whitten rebuilt painting through mechanics, experiment, and time in the studio.We get candid about gimmicks—when devices clarify and when they distract—and why one stunning passage can sabotage an entire canvas. A spontaneous pilgrimage to see a 10-by-10 Clifford Still became a turning point: white walls, no tricks, just a square that redefined what the work needed. That experience sets up a bigger argument for seeing art in person, where edges, drape, and surface detail can't hide behind the glow of a screen. Along the way, we connect Rothko's vertical bars, Twombly's relentless repetitions, and the sheer grind that makes a monumental gesture land with authority.Whitten's language of the spiritual, magical, and cosmic opens the door to the era's space-age curiosity and Black futurist soundtracks—Sun Ra, Funkadelic, and Earth, Wind & Fire—and to the ambition of putting “the fear of God” in paintings. We talk practice as training: ten-painting cycles, breaking boredom at eight, honest tests of scale, and letting assistants' “mistakes” become creative constraints. Color mixing from scratch, documenting stages, and cooling down after a studio crescendo all feed a process that values interiority and invites slow looking.Abstraction here isn't an absence; it's the artist's inner weather made visible. One hundred people can read the same canvas a hundred different ways, and that plurality is the point. If you're hungry to make work that holds up off-screen and in real space, this one will nudge you back to the studio and into the museum with fresh eyes.

What if paint is the vehicle and you are the medium? We dive deep into Jack Whitten's Notes from the Woodshed with guest host Jamel Wright Sr., tracing how a life shaped by the Jim Crow South, pre-med rigor, and carpentry precision produced a studio practice built on invention. From the famed developer tool to a crow's nest for high vantage points, Whitten redesigned the act of making—choosing systems over spontaneity and treating process like a living experiment.Jamel brings a rich perspective as an Atlanta-based artist and professor whose work spans Georgia red clay, Dutch wax cloth, and large-scale textiles. Together we map the long road to abstraction—Turner's atmospheres, Monet's shadows, Cézanne's form, and the New York School's debates—while centering the Black artists too often written out of the frame. We talk Norman Lewis, Joe Overstreet, Sam Gilliam, and the way community quietly powers discovery, even as art remains a solitary grind. The result is a candid look at research, journaling, and “recipes” that transform failed trials into the first real painting, then the next ten that lock in the language.Along the way, we wrestle with Whitten's audacity—“May the history of Western painting die within me”—and why abstraction can be activism: engineering new tools, removing gesture, and insisting on thought as freedom. If you've ever wondered how to balance materials, memory, and ambition without losing your voice, this conversation offers a field guide. Press play, then tell us what rule you're ready to break.

Many of us quietly accept the idea that our best self lives somewhere in the past — that youth is the ideal and aging is a slow erosion of who we really are. But what if getting older isn't about losing our identity, but deepening it? What if the second half of life could be defined not by decline, but by “joyspan”—our capacity for meaning, connection, and contentment as we age?Our guest on this episode is gerontologist and author Kerry Burnight, PhD. As a professor at the University of California, Irvine School of Medicine, Dr. Burnight spent 16 years caring for older adults suffering neglect and abuse. She co-founded the nation's first Elder Abuse Forensic Center, bringing together medicine, adult protective services, and law enforcement to protect vulnerable older adults. Her search for how to help people not just avoid harm, but truly thrive into their later decades led to her work on joyspan, culminating in her New York Times best-selling book Joyspan: The Art and Science of Thriving in Life's Second Half (2025). Her work has been featured in outlets including The New York Times, The Guardian, BBC News, and Forbes Health.Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Burnight details the experience of working with older adults suffering from neglect and abuse, the importance of team camaraderie for getting through dark moments, and the need to humanize people going through dehumanizing situations. We discuss joyspan as well-being and fulfillment combined with longevity; how focusing on growing, connecting, adapting, and giving can increase joyspan; how the internalized belief that we have less to offer as we age threatens joyspan; and how older adults are uniquely positioned to contribute to society. Dr. Burnight reminds us that joyspan is a health habit, and the best time to start focusing on this health habit is today.In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:00 - The story behind the first Elder Abuse Forensics Center11:45 - Dr. Burnight's advice for frontline workers navigating cases of elder abuse15:05 - How social connection improves health outcomes 24:00 - Defining joy and how joy can coexist with aging33:15 - How our personal outlook on aging can impact our aging experience 44:30 - The four elements of joyspan 48:30 - Ways to build meaning into your life If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

In this heartfelt episode of Paige's Pod, Paige sits down with Laurie Roberts, founder of Larry Roberts Chicago, to talk about love, loss, creativity, and what it means to carry someone's legacy forward through art. Laurie shares the cinematic “meet cute” of how she met her late husband, Larry Roberts - an artist who created from deep emotion, using painting as therapy and self-expression. We talk about the vulnerable (and very real) difficulty of selling work that feels like a piece of your soul, and how Laurie supported Larry through the behind-the-scenes business side while he stayed rooted in the creative process. Laurie opens up about Larry's acute myeloid leukemia (AML) diagnosis in 2017, his final series of paintings, and the early days of grief - when everything went off the market and she didn't yet know what came next. That “next” became a powerful new chapter: transforming Larry's artwork into heirloom-quality, hand-knotted rugs, textiles, and home pieces - crafted with artisans in India and built to last for generations.Together, Paige and Laurie talk about:The beauty (and challenge) of being a multi-passionate creativeWhy art and color can shift mood, support healing, and bring joy to everyday spacesTaking risks in business, pivoting when needed, and the truth about “overnight success”How creativity can support people through hard seasons - especially illness, caregiving, and griefLaurie's advice for anyone wanting to honor a loved one's artistic legacy in a meaningful wayThis conversation is tender, inspiring, and full of permission to keep creating - even when life breaks your heart.

Many of the world's best physicians find it surprisingly difficult to answer the question: Why are you in medicine? In the long, arduous journey of medical training or within the technocratically-minded healthcare system, one can easily get lost in the life of the mind—and become estranged from the life of the heart.Our guest on this episode is Brewer Eberly, MD, a third-generation family physician and a fellow at Duke Divinity School's Theology, Medicine, and Culture Initiative. Dr. Eberly grew up listening to physicians in his family discuss their work and was drawn to how life's biggest questions are present in medicine. Now, his research focuses on the intersections of medicine, aesthetics, and theology — with a special focus on the “nourishment of weary clinicians.” Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Eberly shares how his early interests in art and literature continue to shape his life and work, and how the privilege of accompanying patients in all stages of life motivates his practice. We discuss how family medicine requires practitioners to have something to say about the well-lived life, and how this kind of wisdom is forged in silent contemplation. Finally, Dr. Eberly concludes with a profound and personal reflection on the question: What does it mean to willingly receive the suffering of someone that you cannot fix?In this episode, you'll learn about: 2:36 - Dr. Eberly's medical and creative origin stories 10:45 - What makes family medicine unique, and Dr. Eberly's approach to his work22:30 - How Dr. Eberly tries to stay connected to the meaning of medicine29:00 - The “Good Surgeon Project”37:45 - Dr. Eberly's view of the limitations of artificial intelligence in medicine 43:30 - Ways of engaging with and being present for the suffering of patientsIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

We often confuse happiness with the absence of sadness, or a meaningful life with a productive one. The result might be a life that runs smoothly, but feels strangely flat — as if something essential is missing from the story. What if a truly good life isn't just happy and meaningful, but also interesting?Our guest today is Shige Oishi, PhD, professor of psychology at the University of Chicago and author of Life in Three Dimensions (2025). Oishi pioneered the idea of psychological richness — the notion that a good life requires a diverse set of interesting, even disorienting experiences. As an expert in social ecology and well-being, his work spans more than 200 scientific articles and has been featured in outlets such as The New York Times, The Washington Post, and The Wall Street Journal.Over the course of our conversation, professor Oishi traces his own journey from an undergraduate in booming-economy Tokyo — surrounded by overworked, unhappy adults — to a career in psychology in the United States, where seeing professors live differently opened his eyes to alternative ways of being. We explore how cultures like Japan, the United States, Finland, and Denmark differ in what they chase and expect from life; why small, everyday joys and high-quality relationships matter more than grand achievements; and how “success” and “ambition” can quietly shape our sense of happiness.We then dive into psychological richness as a third dimension of the good life alongside happiness and meaning — one defined by variety, newness, and memorable stories, often colored by both positive and negative emotions. We discuss the risks of chasing only stability and efficiency; the importance of spontaneity; and the surprisingly simple ways we can cultivate psychological richness by staying curious and saying “yes” more often.In this episode, you'll hear about: 3:00 - Oishi's path to studying the psychology of wellbeing 8:45 - Rising competitiveness in American culture and how it is affecting lifelong happiness 13:30 - Why Finland and Denmark are regularly rated the happiest countries 15:55 - Whether there is a “correct” way to find meaning and happiness19:15 - What it means to be “psychologically rich” 28:00 - Balancing positive and negative emotions in a happy, meaningful, and psychologically rich life41:30 - Developing psychological richness 45:45 - How psychological richness can help address physician burnoutIf you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

When a religious person is isolated from their community, whether due to hospitalization or military service, they can often rely on a chaplain for spiritual support. But where does a non-religious person turn when facing the same circumstances? And what tools do they have for meaning making?Our guest is Greg Epstein, humanist chaplain at Harvard and MIT and author of the New York Times bestselling book Good Without God. As a humanist chaplain, Greg has spent his career building ethical communities that are united around the idea that human sociality and interdependence are a sufficient foundation for a meaningful life. Greg's writings have been published widely, including in TIME magazine and The Washington Post, and he is a prominent public speaker in humanist and interfaith communities. In our conversation, Greg explains the role of a humanist chaplain, why a humanist chaplain is not necessarily an oxymoron, and how he guides individuals on their meaning-making journey. We discuss Greg's candidate for the world's most powerful word and a humanist's argument for pursuing the work of healing over wealth. And finally, Greg walks us through the thesis of his most recent book Tech Agnostic – how technology has become a religion of its own, with a particular set of downsides. In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:30 - Mr Epstein's personal definitions of ‘chaplain' and ‘religion' 8:23 - How Mr. Epstein uses a humanist framework to guide meaning-making24:35 - Is there an absolute ‘good'? 33:25 - The risks of technology as a religion45:30 - Advice for medical professionals engaged in the work of healing while operating within a system built for profitVisit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Many medical trainees are driven to medicine by their moral or religious principles — only to find that they are expected to check their principles at the patient's door. When this happens, physicians and patients may lose the opportunity for deeper, more healing relationships.Our guest on this episode is Dr. Farr Curlin, a hospitalist and palliative care physician at Duke University School of Medicine. Dr. Curlin holds joint appointments in the Trent Center for Bioethics, Humanities & History of Medicine and Duke Divinity School, where he studies the intersection of medicine, ethics, and religion. From a young age, Dr. Curlin was intrigued by the moral dimensions of medicine. As a medical trainee, he began to study how the religious backgrounds of physicians inform their practice. He is the co-author of The Way of Medicine, in which he challenges the modern “provider of services” model and calls for a recovery of medicine's spiritual foundations as a healing profession. Now, at Duke Divinity School, he spends significant time helping physicians re-center their practice around the question: “What is Good?” Over the course of our conversation, we discuss attitudes toward religion in the medical profession and how many medical professionals worry that being openly religious may make them seem retrograde — or worse. We explore striking the balance between offering physician wisdom while respecting patient autonomy, consider whether the project of medicine makes sense when viewed through the lens of secular humanism, and reflect on how the physician attributes of humility and respect enable physicians to productively bring their full selves to the bedside, all while practicing medicine within a morally pluralistic society.In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:48 - Dr. Curlin's path to medicine and what drew him to a career at the intersection of religion and medicine 19:30 - Dr. Curlin's thoughts on why doctors often feel they cannot be openly religious35:45 - How Dr. Curlin would change medical training to create a deeper focus on personal commitments and moral conviction 41:15 - Exploring the limitations of artificial agnosticism at the patient's bedside51:50 - How fostering a spiritual connection to the work of healing can mitigate burnoutVisit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Medical trainees spend years mastering what to do when biology fails — countless protocols, procedures, and split-second decisions. By the end, they're primed to fix what's broken. But what if the mandate of medicine is simpler — and more human?Our guest on this episode is Dr. Jessica Zitter — a physician, author, and filmmaker who has spent her career at the fault line between intensive care and palliative care. Dr. Zitter was initially drawn to the technical choreography in the ICU: numbers to chase, procedures to perform. Yet, along the way, she began to notice the danger we rarely name — that in our devotion to protocol, we might drift away from the person in front of us. Over the course of our conversation, Dr. Zitter shares personal experiences that have shaped her approach to medicine. We talk about moral injury and how it compounds: when systems push us to act against our values, care gets worse, and the hurt deepens. We talk about how bias slips in when power meets prejudice at the bedside and why chaplains — so often sidelined — can be essential guides back to the human being we're treating. Her prescription is simple: treat patients as you'd want your own loved ones to be treated. Ask for the story. Reconstruct the person we've taken apart into smaller pieces.Dr. Zitter is the author of her memoir Extreme Measures, appears in the Academy Award-nominated short film Extremis, and is the director of several documentaries, including 2025's The Chaplain & the Doctor.In this episode, you'll hear about: 2:45 - Dr. Zitter's path to a career in intensive care medicine4:52 - A day in the life of an intensivist17:42 - Dr. Zitter's unexpected pivot to prioritizing palliative care in her work  26:41 - The inspiration for Dr. Zitter's film The Chaplain and the Doctor38:36 - How chaplaincy attends to the soul of the patient and what doctors can learn from this perspective42:51 - Navigating internalized bias as a doctor49:42 - Dr. Zitter's advice for her younger self Visit our website www.TheDoctorsArt.com where you can find transcripts of all episodes.If you enjoyed this episode, please subscribe, rate, and review our show, available for free on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.
