Board-certified pediatrician and certified coach Jessie Mahoney discusses her article, "Why self-care must become medicine's new standard." She challenges the long-held belief in medical culture that self-sacrifice is noble and that self-care is an indulgence. Jessie argues that caring for oneself is not a luxury but a responsible, non-negotiable standard of care for anyone in medicine. She explains that a physician's energy is their most critical resource, and its chronic depletion leads to poor decisions, burnout, and negative ripple effects. To change this, she introduces a powerful new framework: viewing self-care not as an emergency "oxygen mask" for when things go wrong, but as the "required maintenance" that happens between flights to prevent accidents. This shift redefines rest and replenishment as foundational to safe, effective, and sustainable patient care—as essential as a surgical time-out—and calls on the culture of medicine to make time for it as an expectation, not an afterthought.

This week's guest is Rebecca Rodger, a podiatrist from Kendal, England, who proves there's no single path to success in our profession. From running a multidisciplinary clinic to working in COVID vaccination, and now shaping global wound care strategies at Convatec, Rebecca has redefined what it means to be a podiatrist. We discuss networking, mentorship, and the value of exploring non-traditional career paths, as well as why evidence-based wound care should be a priority for every podiatrist. ⭐ 5 Standout Takeaways Your podiatry skills are never lost; they serve as your ultimate career safety net. Non-traditional career paths expand the profession's global influence. Evidence-based care must be applied in private practice. Networking beyond podiatry broadens professional horizons. Mentorship accelerates growth and supports the next generation. “You can almost stagnate if you don't go onto the next opportunity.” My conversation with Rebecca was both inspiring and practical. She is proof that podiatry can open doors to diverse opportunities far beyond the clinic. Whether it's entrepreneurship, research, corporate health, or global strategy, our profession provides a platform for impact at every level. If you've ever thought about pivoting or exploring non-traditional career paths, Rebecca's story is a reminder that it's possible, and that your podiatry skills will always remain your foundation. Rebecca will be speaking at the 2026 Foot & Ankle Show in Liverpool - https://www.footandankleshow.com/speakers-2026/ If you're looking for a speaker for an upcoming event, you can email me at tyson@podiatrylegends.com or tf@tysonfranklin.com, and we can discuss the range of topics I cover.

Meet Baiba Wisse, a multi-passionate creative from Raleigh, North Carolina, who spent a decade in global talent acquisition before life handed her a plot twist: a layoff. While she was still working in recruiting, Baiba discovered her favorite part of the job wasn't the spreadsheets or the scheduling, it was the human connection. She loved coaching candidates, hearing their career stories, and helping people see their own potential.That passion inspired her to start her own podcast, The Career in Technicolor, where she interviews people about their career journeys in living color. But when the layoff hit, she found herself in that all-too-familiar “what now?” moment.Instead of sitting still (because that's not her style), Baiba leaned into her creative energy, painting, cooking, cleaning, and trying new things. She also followed her curiosity into movement and stress relief, recently earning her Tai Chi instructor certification. Now, she's on a mission to bring Tai Chi into corporate settings, helping teams manage stress, move more, and age well.I met Baiba early in my own podcasting journey, and we've been swapping ideas and cheering each other on ever since. She's been a generous supporter, a creative sounding board, and now I'm flipping the mic so you can hear her story.What You'll Learn in This Episode:How Baiba turned a layoff into an opportunity to explore new passions Why coaching and human connection were the most rewarding parts of her recruiting career The creative outlets that kept her moving forward during a career pivot How Tai Chi can help reduce stress and support well-being in and out of the workplace The joy (and challenges) of podcasting about other people's career journeysConnect with BaibaConnect with Baiba on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bwisse/ Listen to The Career in TechnicolorApple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/career-in-technicolor/id1584835608Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/034sss7E8ncD5RewpqkwZJ Follow on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/careerintechnicolor/ Thanks for tuning in to The Career Flipper!If this episode made you think, laugh, or feel a little braver about your own flip, do me a favor:
On a warm evening, I met up with friends in a downtown area. We were excited to eat at a restaurant that offered live jazz music outside, but when we arrived the patio was full. Disappointed, we left and had to walk several blocks to find another place to eat. On earth, disappointments come in all sizes, both big and small. Beloved pets pass away. Careers fizzle. Health problems occur. We lose relationships with loved ones. In our setbacks, we have God’s comfort, but our life stories don’t always contain the blissful endings we long for. Believers, however, have the hope of a joyful eternity. The book of Revelation records God giving John a breathtaking vision. John saw “the Holy City, the new Jerusalem” (21:2). “Prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband” (v. 2), it radiated God’s glory. God would inhabit the place along with all His people. In His city there would be no crime, no darkness, and no fear (vv. 25–27). Light, peace, and goodwill would abound. On the night I met my friends for dinner, we ended up walking back past the first restaurant. White lights lit the sidewalk, and we stopped to listen to the music as we ate ice cream. I savored the moment, but we know that no earthly joy can compare with the ultimate ending believers will enjoy forever.
Professional development practitioner and veteran emergency nurse Kristen Cline discusses her article, "America's ER crisis: Why the system is collapsing from within." Using the TV drama "The Pitt" as a reference point, she argues that the reality of the emergency department is exponentially more chaotic and dangerous than portrayed. Kristen shares her frontline perspective on the intersecting crises crippling the system: an epidemic of workplace violence where assault is treated as "part of the job," a wisdom gap created by an exodus of experienced nurses, and a perpetual backlog caused by hospital overcrowding and a lack of downstream facilities. The conversation reveals how profit-driven management and impending Medicaid cuts are accelerating the closure of rural hospitals and vital services, creating health care deserts. Her core message is a stark warning: the safety net is tearing, and it has been held together only by the sacrifice of health care workers who are running out of hope.

The US Bureau of Labor Statistics projects higher than average growth in accounting and finance positions in the coming decade. In fact, over 715,000 openings are predicted in the business and finance sphere between now and 2031. With such strong growth (and earning potential), it's no wonder educators want to prepare students for jobs in accounting and finance. In this episode, we sat down with two accounting educators: Ashley Faulkner and David Waite. Ashley is a teacher at Triton High School in North Carolina, where she is a strong certification advocate. Over the past 11 years, Ashley has earned more than 40 certifications—and helped her students earn more than 1,150 individual certifications. She has also served as an FBLA adviser and as the North Carolina Southeast Region advisor. Outside her teaching career, Ashley is the chief financial officer for Simple Web Solutions, Inc., EM Audio, Inc., and Butler Faulkner Enterprise, and she is the mother of two active children. David began his career as an auditor and was one of the rare humans who genuinely enjoyed it. After earning his CPA, he spent 15 years in public and private accounting before discovering his passion for teaching. An unexpected opportunity to teach accounting in Hawaii led him to academia, where he now focuses on bridging the gap between theory and practice. His teaching philosophy is simple: motivate students to prepare before class, engage actively during class, and tackle real-world challenges after class. Drawing from his industry experience, David strives to bring accounting to life for his students and future professionals. We talk with Ashley and David about the skills accounting and finance professionals need and how to teach these skills in the classroom. Plus, we dive into connecting with local businesses for students' internship and job opportunities. And last, but not least, how certification empowers students along the way.

Family physician Jonathan Bushman discusses his article, "The hidden moral injury behind value-based health care." He shares the story of a young physician who was told to remove her most complex patients from her panel to protect the health system's performance metrics. Jonathan uses this powerful example to explain moral injury: a deep, ethical wound that is fundamentally different from burnout. The conversation exposes how value-based payment models, even in not-for-profit systems, can incentivize data manipulation and force doctors to choose between their patients' well-being and their employer's bottom line. He argues that this crisis of integrity is a primary reason many physicians are leaving employed positions for independent models like direct primary care (DPC), where they can answer directly to their patients instead of a spreadsheet. His core message is an urgent call to confront the reality that when "value" becomes code for "profitable," the entire system's moral compass is at risk.

We've all been there. You say something. You think it makes sense. But the reaction you get? Confused. Unmoved. Maybe even tuned out. Ugh. Communication isn't about what you say.

If you're not getting the results you want from your conversations, whether in meetings, emails, presentations, or even casual exchanges, there's a reason. This week, I'm sharing 2 simple ways to instantly improve your communication skills. These aren't gimmicks or tricks. They're straightforward changes you can make right away to: ✅ Be clearer. ✅ Get buy-in faster. ✅ Avoid misinterpretations. ✅ Sound more thoughtful, credible, and composed. Communication is THE SKILL that connects your value to the world. If you want to influence, lead, or be remembered, this is where you start.

Anesthesiologist and clinical mental health counselor Maire Daugharty discusses her article, "Why peer support can save lives in high-pressure medical careers." Drawing from her personal experience of losing three colleagues to suicide and overdose, Maire makes a powerful case for peer support as a direct antidote to the isolation that plagues the medical profession. She explains how the culture of medicine, with its relentless pursuit of perfection, leaves physicians vulnerable to despair when they inevitably face human fallibility. The conversation explores how structured peer support creates a space for authentic connection, validating shared struggles and mitigating the self-recrimination that can follow adverse outcomes. Maire also clarifies that while peer support is a lifeline, it is also a crucial tool for identifying colleagues who need deeper professional help, and for normalizing that next step. Her core message is an urgent call for medical environments to integrate protected peer support programs as an essential, proactive strategy to save lives.

Garrett Lord is co-founder and CEO of Handshake, which started as a career network for college students and new grads but recently discovered something extraordinary: they were sitting on the world's largest network of academic experts—exactly what frontier AI labs desperately needed. With 500,000 PhDs and 3 million advanced degree holders creating training data, in just eight months they've built a new business that hit $50 million in revenue in its first four months and is on track to blow past $100M in the first 12 months.What you'll learn:1. How Handshake found an opportunity to leverage their proprietary network of experts to launch a data-labeling business that's on track to blow past $100 million ARR in 12 months2. Why AI models need human experts (e.g. physics PhDs) to improve, and what this “data labeling” actually involves3. Inside the actual work: what a biology PhD does for 8 hours that makes GPT-5 smarter4. The playbook for building a startup inside a startup: separate teams, separate offices, separate everything5.

Physician and public health advocate Judith Eguzoikpe discusses her article, "Hope is the lifeline: a deeper look into transplant care." She pulls back the curtain on the kidney transplant process, revealing that the true journey for patients with end-stage kidney disease is not just a single surgery but months or years of emotional and logistical challenges. Judith shares powerful patient stories that illustrate the fear, frustration, and uncertainty that define the waiting period. The conversation highlights the essential role of health care professionals as advocates who must provide not just information but presence and compassion. She also confronts the stark inequities in the system, where marginalized communities face greater barriers to care. The core message is a call for clinicians to look beyond lab values and recognize that building hope through advocacy and human connection is a critical part of the treatment itself.

Critical care physician Jess Bunin, co-founder of All Levels Leadership, discusses the article, "Civil discourse as a leadership competency: the case for curiosity in medicine." They challenge a core tenet of medical culture: the pressure to project certainty and always have the right answer. Jess argues that this fixation on "knowing" makes clinicians fragile and sabotages the ability to navigate difficult conversations on topics like racial equity and systems of power. The solution she proposes is civil discourse, which requires shifting one's identity from being "correct" to being "curious." She emphasizes that providing psychological safety is a leader's primary responsibility in making this shift possible. The conversation provides actionable skills like active listening and perspective-taking, reframing them not as "soft skills" but as essential survival skills for a health care system strained by polarization and burnout.

Pediatrician and certified life and weight coach Karla Lester discusses her article, "An effective treatment using an effective care delivery model: Using telehealth to treat adolescents with obesity with GLP-1 medications." She shares her frustration with traditional in-person obesity programs that see high attrition and offer few effective treatments beyond surgery. Karla explains how she founded her own practice, Metabolic Telehealth, to implement the latest AAP guidelines by combining a new care delivery model with new medical treatments. The conversation explores her initial data, which shows how telehealth can reduce barriers like weight stigma and travel time, leading to better patient retention. It also highlights the effectiveness of GLP-1 medications, with 95 percent of her long-term patients seeing a BMI reduction. However, she also reveals a critical obstacle: over half of all insurance prior authorizations for these vital medications are denied, forcing many families to pay out of pocket. The core message is that while this telehealth model is effective, systemic change is needed to ensure all adolescents have access to this life-changing care.

Does the idea of a whole summer one on one with your kid sound idyllic... or intimidating? If you've ever been the primary parent for a whole season, you've likely experienced both of those extremes. In this episode, we're joined by Joel Costigan, a longtime educator, soccer coach, and dad to a 7-year-old daughter named Ruby. Joel recently made a major career move, trading a lucrative healthcare job for an Ed Tech position, which brought him back to his roots and awarded him an entire summer to spend with Ruby. Joel shares what he learned navigating a busy, adventure-filled season as both planner and playmate, his biggest parenting fears, and the surprising joys (and challenges) of being a hands-on “girl dad." After the chat, stick around for Marc's family vacation story, complete his boys' accidental new signature move: "Peen pinching."Episode 128 of Modern Dadhood opens with a brief catch-up between the guys about the back-to-school season, and they discuss their plans to see friend-of-the-show Pete Holmes. Marc shares about an epic family vacation to Bar Harbor before they replay a recent conversation between Adam and longtime friend Joel Costigan. Joel is a husband, a father of one, and an Ed Tech at a public high school in Maine. His recent job change awarded him a full summer to spend with his 7-year-old daughter Ruby.

Cardiologist Monzur Morshed discusses the article, "Why South Asians in the U.S. face a silent heart disease crisis." Drawing from his direct experience treating the Bangladeshi-American community in New York City, Monzur explains why people from South Asia are disproportionately at risk for developing heart disease 5 to 10 years earlier than other populations, often despite having normal cholesterol levels. The conversation delves into specific, often overlooked risk factors like the "thin-fat" phenotype, genetic predispositions such as elevated lipoprotein(a), and cultural barriers including diet and the stigma around mental health. They provide actionable clinical tips for health care providers and patients, emphasizing that standard risk assessments are failing this vulnerable community. The key takeaway is a call for a paradigm shift: clinicians must treat South Asian patients as high-risk by default and utilize culturally sensitive, aggressive screening to close the equity gap in cardiovascular care.

Second careers or career transitions can look daunting. But the likelihood of some of us having to make a change of careers is increasing.
Dr. Lorna Breen Heroes Foundation co-founder Corey Feist and physician advocate Kim Downey discuss their article, "Health workers deserve care too: How to protect their mental health." They highlight the ongoing mental health crisis facing the health care workforce, where CDC data shows mental health is worse than in any other segment, yet only 38 percent of those in distress seek care. Kim shares personal anecdotes that reveal the immense pressure and stigma physicians face, while Corey outlines the systemic barriers that prevent healers from getting help. The conversation centers on the six crucial actions from their "Health Workers Have The Right, Too" initiative, providing a concrete roadmap for employers and policymakers. Corey and Kim argue for practical solutions like confidential peer support, the removal of invasive mental health questions on licensing applications, and accessible, affordable care that works for a 24/7 workforce. Their core message is clear: To ensure patient safety, we must first build a system that protects the well-being of our health care workers. Careers by KevinMD is your gateway to health care success.

Addiction medicine physician Safina Adatia discusses her article, "Why gambling addiction is America's next health crisis." She warns that following the Supreme Court's 2018 ruling to overturn sports gambling bans, the U.S. is facing a potential epidemic with tens of millions at risk. Safina explains that unlike substance use disorders, problem gambling lacks sufficient research, effective treatments, and public health infrastructure. The conversation explores how the ease of access through smartphones and ubiquitous, predatory marketing campaigns are fueling what she calls a "runaway train," with data suggesting a widespread issue, particularly among young people. Safina argues for a multi-layered clinical approach combining therapy and medication, similar to models for opioid use disorder, and calls for urgent legislative action. She advocates for Congress to fund research, for lawmakers to curb advertising like they did for tobacco, and for a surgeon general's warning on gambling platforms to protect the public from this avoidable crisis.

If you've ever thought I want to build wealth, but I'm not sure where to start. You're not alone. Good news! You don't need to read 100 finance books. You just need the right ones. In this week's lesson, I'm sharing 5 powerful books that'll help you build wealth and maximize your earning power. These aren't just theory-packed reads. They are the exact books I'd recommend if you asked me, “What should I read to take control of my finances and income?” I run over a great book I think anyone and everyone should read to understand general investment strategy. I hit a (very) surprisingly entertaining (and hugely helpful) guide that breaks down investing in its simplest form. Of course, you know me. I love mindset and psychology, so I tossed in a couple that separate spenders from wealth builders. And, now list regarding wealth-building would be complete if I didn't toss in the #1 book, IMHO, that'll help you improve your professional skills. Your skills directly affect your salary and income and overall earning potential. Amiright?!?!? These books are for professionals who want to put together an investment strategy, make smarter financial decisions, and grow their income with purpose. And, don't worry, you don't need to be a finance geek to understand these. You just need to be willing to invest a few hours to change your future. Let's make money make sense so you can grow it!

Clinical research physician Khutaija Noor discusses her article, "Why clinical research is a powerful path for unmatched IMGs." She addresses the intense pressure and profound disappointment International Medical Graduates (IMGs) face when they go unmatched for a residency spot in the U.S. Drawing from her own experience, Khutaija reframes this perceived setback as an opportunity, detailing her pivot into the world of clinical research. She challenges the outdated view of research as a non-clinical detour, describing her hands-on role as a clinical trial lead where she serves as an advocate and primary medical contact for vulnerable patients. Khutaija highlights the immense purpose found in contributing to pivotal studies for new treatments, arguing that clinical research is not a consolation prize but a powerful and rewarding field. She offers an empowering message for all IMGs facing uncertainty: Your skills are desperately needed in medical innovation, and your journey is far from over.
