Mentorship has become a buzzword in pelvic PT and OT — but most conversations around it are incomplete.In this episode, we break down the four distinct types of mentorship that actually shape clinical confidence, patient outcomes, and long-term career satisfaction. Most clinicians receive some mentorship — but very few receive all four.We unpack:Hard Skills Hands-on techniques, assessments, and interventions — what most people think of as “mentorship,” and what many con-ed courses focus on.Soft Skills Communication, motivation, managing difficult personalities, and helping patients truly buy into care. Often overlooked, but frequently the difference between average and exceptional outcomes.Information Understanding diagnoses, testing, medical management, and knowing what actually matters for the patient in front of you — not just what's theoretically interesting.Professional Development Career guidance, burnout prevention, time management, and mentorship that considers you as a person — not just a clinician.We also talk honestly about what to do if you're not getting this level of mentorship where you work — and how to approach your career strategically instead of hoping things improve on their own.

Low-dose aspirin, often called baby aspirin, is one of the most commonly recommended medications in pregnancy today. But despite how frequently it's prescribed, many patients still ask the same questions: Why do I need it? Is it safe? When should I start or stop? And who actually benefits? In this episode, we take a clear, evidence-based look at baby aspirin in pregnancy—cutting through myths, confusion, and mixed messaging. In this episode, we cover: What "baby aspirin" actually is (dose, formulation, and how it works) Why it's recommended in pregnancy, especially for preventing preeclampsia Who should take it—including high-risk and moderate-risk patients When to start and when to stop (timing matters) What the research says about safety for both parent and baby Common concerns and misconceptions, including bleeding risk What to do if you're unsure or were told conflicting advice Why baby aspirin matters: Preeclampsia remains one of the leading causes of pregnancy complications worldwide. Decades of high-quality research now show that low-dose aspirin, started early in pregnancy for the right patients, can significantly reduce risk—with an excellent safety profile. For many patients, this simple intervention can make a meaningful difference in pregnancy outcomes. Who this episode is for: Pregnant patients wondering "Do I really need this?" Anyone with a history of preeclampsia, hypertension, infertility, IVF, or pregnancy complications Clinicians counseling patients on aspirin use Anyone navigating pregnancy advice that feels unclear or contradictory The takeaway: Baby aspirin isn't about doing more—it's about doing the right thing at the right time, guided by evidence and individualized care. If you've been prescribed baby aspirin—or think you might benefit—this episode will help you understand why it's recommended and how to take it with confidence.   Got something you want to share or ask?

On November 7, Commonwealth Club World Affairs of California, the nation's oldest and largest public affairs forum, will host The Asian American Foundation's (TAAF) first-ever AAPI Youth Mental Health Summit. Under the theme “Sparking Solutions Together,” the summit will convene hundreds of experts, advocates, funders, and business executives to address the urgent and often overlooked mental health challenges facing Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) youth. From 2018 through 2022, suicide was the leading cause of death among Asian Americans aged 15–24, and the second leading cause of death among Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. Yet despite being deeply impacted by the nation's mental health crisis, AAPI youth remain largely invisible in the national mental health conversation, and the data needed to understand their mental health is scarce at best. To fill the gap, TAAF released "Beyond the Surface" in December 2024, the most comprehensive study to date on AAPI youth mental health, which revealed: Nearly 1 in 2 AAPI youth screen positive for moderate depression; 1 in 3 have planned or attempted suicide; Stigma, family pressure, and silence keep many from seeking help; Only 53 percent feel comfortable talking with their parents; Just 1 in 4 have accessed formal care; and 46 percent have never seen a mental health provider. Building on these findings, the November 7 summit will bring together leading experts to spark dialogue on breaking stigma, closing gaps in care, and exploring how community partners and technology are reshaping the ways young people seek and receive support.  Join us online to hear from: Midori Francis, Actor, "Grey's Anatomy" Ryan Alexander Holmes Owin Pierson, Creator and Mental Health Advocate Lisa Ling, Journalist Noopur Agarwal, VP of Social Impact, MTV Norman Chen, CEO, The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) Philip Yun, Co-President and Co-CEO, Commonwealth Club World Affairs Rushika Fernandopulle, MD, Practicing Physician; Co-Founder and Former CEO, Iora Health; TAAF Board Member Juliana Chen, MD, Chief Medical Officer, Cartwheel Perry Chen,Director of Programs and Partnerships, Behavioral Health at Blue Shield of California Rachel Miller, Founder & CEO, Closegap Meena Srinivasan, Founding Executive Director, Transformative Educational Leadership Ayesha Meer, Executive Director, Asian Mental Health Collective Henry Ha, Program Director, Community Youth Center of San Francisco Anne Saw, PhD, HOPE Program Reid Bowman, MPH, CHES, Outreach & Program Manager, UCA Waves Rupesh Shah, COO of Crisis Text Line Tone Va'i, LCSW, Clinician, Samoan Community Development Center Amy Grace Lam, PhD, Chief Program Strategist, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christine Yang, ASW, Korean Community Center of East Bay Christina Yu, LCSW, Clinical Supervisor, Korean Community Center of East Bay William Tsai, PhD, Associate Professor, New York University Cindy H.

In this special HLTH bonus episode of Tech It to the Limit, hosts Sarah Harper and Elliott Wilson battle post-conference fatigue and full-blown health FOMO by bringing the conference floor straight to your earbuds. While Sarah recovers from a “very real case of health FOMO,” Elliott reports from the trenches after surviving days of buzzwords, badge scanners, and $9 lattes. To shake up the usual format, they press play on two standout booth interviews from HLTH.First, Elliott sits down with Dr. Lynne Nowak of Surescripts for a deep dive into seamless prescribing, touchless prior authorization, interoperability, and price transparency. Dr. Lynne breaks down how automation is shrinking prior auth from a multi-day nightmare into a near-instant, 30-second reality, reducing burnout for clinicians and removing friction for patients who just want their meds on time and at a price they can afford.Then, the episode shifts into venture-building mode with returning guest John Beadle of Aegis Ventures. John unpacks how his consortium model is helping health systems move from “innovation theater” to real innovation delivery by building and scaling AI companies faster than the market average. From ambient AI becoming table stakes to the rise of patient-facing agents, he offers a clear view of where healthcare innovation is headed next.In this episode:[00:00] Introduction[01:16] Health conference recap setup[07:13] Interview Dr. lynne Nowak automation and burnout[10:25] Touchless prior authorization explained[12:59] Interoperability and data exchange[18:11] Trust and data governance[19:55] Future of data science at Surescripts[21:12] Interview wrap up Dr. lynne[24:42] Interview John Beadle AI startups and health systems[26:02] Startup success metrics and examples[28:11] Clinician experience and ambient AI[32:19] Advice for health conference attendees[33:07] Sponsor segment HIPAA compliance tool[34:22] Episode wrap up and teaser for part two[35:40] Healthtech haiku and sign-offResources:Tech It To The Limit PodcastWebsite Apple PodcastDr. Lynne NowakLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/lynnee-nowak-md-62054583/Surescripts - https://surescripts.com/John BeadleLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnpbeadle/Aegis Ventures - https://aegisventures.com/Sarah HarperLinkedIn -https://www.linkedin.com/in/sarahbethharperElliott WilsonLinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthewelliottwilson

Clinicians often zoom in on the knee with an acute meniscus tear, but the body usually has other plans.  In this episode, I walk through two client cases who arrived with classic meniscal presentations: pain, swelling, and loss of flexion. But the real driver of their pain at that assessment revealed itself only when I followed LTAP® findings back to the central nervous system.I break down how CNS tension alters dynamic alignment, hip mechanics, and tibiofemoral arthrokinematics, and why this pattern shows up so often in clients with knee pain. You'll hear exactly how I used the LTAP® to identify the true restriction and why the CNS initially mattered more than local knee work.In this episode, you'll learn:• How CNS tension alters gait, hip rotation, and knee loading during daily movement• Why addressing cranial containers can transform lower-extremity biomechanics• How simple sensory-driven treatments can reduce symptoms in structurally injured knees• When to treat locally, when to treat globally, and how to make that call with confidenceThis episode Is a practical reminder that system-level clarity leads to better outcomes, whethers it's in acute or chronic client cases.Resources & Links Mentioned In This Episode:Episode 86: Decoding The Nervous System For Health ProsEpisode 94: Understanding The Piriformis PuzzleLearn the LTAP® In-Person in one of my upcoming coursesConsidering the viscera as a source of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction is a great way to ensure a more true whole body approach to care, however it can be a bit overwhelming on where to start, which is exactly why I created the Visceral Referral Cheat Sheet.

3 Choices When You're Thinking About Starting a Cash PT Clinic In this episode, Doc Danny Matta breaks down the real decision points for clinicians who are thinking about starting their own cash-based practice. He explains why staying stuck in "research mode" is dangerous, what it actually takes to make the leap, and the three clear paths you can choose—staying employed, going solo, or getting guided support. Quick Ask If this episode helps you get clarity on your next move, share it with another clinician who's on the fence about starting a practice—and tag @dannymattaPT so he can see what resonated with you. Episode Summary Claire math: If Claire saves a staff PT 6 hours/week, even using 3 of those for patient visits at $200/visit can add ~$30k/year in revenue per clinician. Why decisions feel awful: Danny compares making a big move (like starting a clinic) to knowing you're about to throw up—you dread it, but feel better once it's done. The real problem: Most people hide in endless "learning" (podcasts, books, courses) instead of making an actual decision. 3 choices you actually have: Stay in your current role and own that decision. Go the DIY route and figure business out alone. Get guided support from people who've already done it. Who shouldn't start a clinic: Highly risk-averse, conflict-avoidant, or extremely introverted clinicians may be better off in a great employed role. The trap of DIY: Going solo usually means slower progress, more expensive mistakes, more stress, and more risk for your family. The case for mentorship: Guided support is like residency/fellowship for business—it speeds up results and increases your odds of success. Why this is serious: Your business is how you pay rent, buy groceries, and take care of your family—treat it like it matters. Decision purgatory: Staying stuck in "maybe" is the worst place to live—nothing changes, and frustration grows. Lessons & Takeaways Indecision is a decision: Avoiding a choice is still choosing—the status quo wins by default. Acceptance can be powerful: If you stay employed, own it, and aim to be world-class—not secretly resentful. DIY has a cost: You'll likely spend more time, more money, and experience more stress figuring everything out on your own. Guided support = faster, safer: Proven systems and mentorship are like insurance for one of the biggest financial decisions of your life. Business is a skill set: Just like clinical skills, business skills can be learned with the right teachers and reps. Mindset & Motivation Stop chasing greener grass: Comparing yourself to other owners while doing nothing is a recipe for misery. Own your path: Whether you're an employed PT or a clinic owner, commit to excellence in the lane you choose. Respect the risk: When your business feeds your family, being "proudly stubborn" is not a strategy—it's a liability. Decisiveness is a superpower: Successful entrepreneurs make decisions, take action, and adjust as they go. Pro Tips for Clinicians on the Fence Be brutally honest: Do you truly want to be a business owner, or do you just want a better job? Know your wiring: If you hate uncertainty and change, ownership may not be the right move right now. Count the real cost: Time, money, stress, and impact on your family—not just the price of a program or course. Treat support like insurance: Mentorship isn't cheating; it's reducing the odds that you crash your business (and savings) in the first few years. Get out of research purgatory: Podcasts and books are great—but only if they eventually lead to action. How Claire Fits In Save clinician time: Claire is saving staff clinicians about six hours a week on documentation. Turn time into revenue: Even converting half that into extra patient visits can generate ~$30,000 per clinician per year. Protect your team: Use tech to increase volume without burning clinicians out. Try it free: Test Claire with a 7-day free trial at MeetClaire AI. Notable Quotes "If nothing changes, nothing changes." "For some of you, you have no business starting a clinic—and that's okay." "Guided support is basically residency and fellowship for your business." "Purgatory for your future is endlessly gathering information and never making a decision." Action Items Decide your lane: Are you going to stay employed, go DIY, or pursue guided support? Audit your reasons: Write down why you actually want a clinic—is it meaning, freedom, income, or all of the above? Count the risk: Look at your family, your bills, and your responsibilities. What level of risk are you really willing to take? Set a deadline: Give yourself a hard date to decide and take your first concrete step. Explore support options: If guided help makes sense, look into programs built specifically for cash PT clinic owners.

In medical sales, innovation often collides head-on with resistance. Clinicians are busy, systems are rigid, workflows are sacred, and "no" becomes the default answer long before anyone fully understands the value you're bringing. In this episode, Zed Williamson sits down with James Piacentino, CEO and co-founder of Thrive Genetics, whose company combines genetic and behavioral data to proactively identify addiction risk and bring true precision to pain management. He breaks down why most innovations die at the door, how to find opportunity in objections, and why the most powerful fuel for sales success might just be… a well-explained "no." You'll learn: How genetic and behavioral insights are reshaping high-risk prescribing decisions Why clinicians often reject innovation and how to reframe the conversation The simple mistake startups make that shuts the door on adoption How James uses objections and "no's" as data, not deterrents The mindset shift that helps reps find the "white space" others overlook Whether you're selling a category-defining technology or trying to elevate the way you position your current product, this conversation will sharpen your approach to overcoming resistance and championing solutions that truly change patient care.

She highlights the essential role families can play in the healing process and offers practical guidance for supporting adolescents with compassion and clarity.We explore the Barbie effect, the rise of GLP-1 medications, and how social media and comparison culture fuel distorted body image and perfectionism. Dr. Hartman underscores the absurdity of our societal ideals: the original 1959 Barbie, scaled to human size, would stand 5'9”, weigh 110 pounds, measure 39–18–33, and—ironically—would meet criteria for anorexia. And Barbie's measurements haven't improved much since.Zooming out, we look at the cultural forces that perpetuate body shaming and misunderstanding about what “healthy” truly means. Dr. Hartman shares how to talk with adolescents about their eating disorders, what treatments show the strongest evidence, and how to navigate parental shame without derailing recovery.Finally, we discuss the powerful role of Internal Family Systems (IFS) as an integrative therapeutic approach for adolescents and families—an essential model for clinicians working in this space.This episode is a must-listen for anyone supporting young people on the path toward healing, nourishment, and self-compassion.WCMI networking group A networking group for mindfulness-focused clinicians dedicated to learning together & collaborating for more information click here

This week's episode is a little different. We wanted to give you a full view inside a VestiBesties mentorship call where Christina Garrity, PT, DPT, NCS interviewed a neuro-otologist she works with in Ohio, Dr. Jimmy Prueter. Dr. Prueter was invited to the conversation to help clinicians better understand when, why and which tests people with vestibular conditions should be getting. The conversation-style interview is between Christina and Dr. Preuter, taken straight from a VestiBestie webinar so you can have exclusive access! In the discussion they outlined the challenges associated with diagnosing dizziness, noting that ENT residency programs don't always adequately prepare physicians for complex vestibular cases. Dr. Prueter stressed that while some tests—such as VNG with calorics or VEMP—can be helpful in specific scenarios, the decision to order them should be driven by whether the results would actually impact clinical management. Particularly for acute vestibular hypofunction, a strong clinical suspicion based on history and examination might mean that testing is less essential, and prompt referral to vestibular rehab can prevent unnecessary delays. They highlighted that clear documentation from therapists AND teaching physicians how to find what they need in it can provide valuable context for physicians. Plus, educating primary care doctors about early referral to vestibular therapy might streamline the diagnostic process.  Send us a DM on IG if you want to join VestiBesties! @neurocollaborative Follow Christina @vestibular_neuro_pt

Have you ever felt the pull to deepen your healing—but found yourself terrified of what might surface if you actually slowed down long enough to listen? If you're like many people on a concussion or trauma-related healing journey, you might be unintentionally doing the very thing that keeps you stuck: staying in your head, trying to control every outcome, and avoiding the "box" of unresolved experiences you're afraid might burst open. But here's the truth—healing rarely happens in the mind alone. And when you try to logic your way through everything, you disconnect from the very place your healing actually begins: your body.

In this episode of The DocPreneur Leadership Podcast, we unpack a recent article written by a fellow clinician—one that suggested physicians already possess everything needed to run a successful practice. While the heart of that message is encouraging, the realities of leading a practice today are far more complex than discipline and vision alone.   This conversation explores what the article gets right, what it unintentionally leaves out, and why blending clinical excellence with business clarity is essential in a changing healthcare landscape. We discuss how practice ownership demands a different kind of leadership—one built on messaging, systems, sustainability, and support. And we highlight why advisors, business-minded peers, and outside perspectives bring a level of clarity and structure that empowers clinicians rather than diminishes their independence.   Most importantly, we talk about what clinicians can learn from the broader world of business—how clarity reduces friction, how consistency builds trust, and how the right support can turn hard work into lasting momentum.   Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and should not be considered legal, financial, or professional business advice.   What You'll Learn in This Episode   Why core clinical strengths don't automatically translate into business systems How oversimplified business advice can set clinicians up for avoidable frustration The difference between clinical leadership and business leadership Why no practice thrives in isolation—and how the right support fosters sustainability How business clarity amplifies, rather than replaces, clinical excellence Simple, practical mindset shifts that help clinicians lead their practices with more confidence   Who This Episode Is For   Physicians, PAs, NPs, practice managers, and healthcare leaders exploring how to stabilize, strengthen, or grow a patient-centered practice model—without becoming overwhelmed by the business side of medicine.

Over 99% of homes contain at least one allergen, with 75% harboring three to six, yet winter allergies often masquerade as stubborn “colds” or recurrent respiratory infections. This episode confronts the core diagnostic challenge of differentiating allergy-driven symptoms from viral, bacterial, or non-allergic triggers in colder months. We delve into indoor allergen epidemiology, risk stratification for polysensitized patients, syndrome overlap in differential diagnosis, and utility of location-specific respiratory allergen profiles for diagnostic testing and interpretation. Additional topics include guideline-informed approaches to environmental exposure reduction, patient-centered therapeutic strategies, monitoring of symptom thresholds, actionable counseling for managing dust mites, pet dander, molds, mouse and cockroach allergens, and streamlining through tailored lab ordering guides and reflex pet component testing. Clinicians will gain practical insight into identifying sensitizations, guiding targeted exposure minimization, and elevating respiratory care quality for patients with persistent winter symptoms.

Susan Grant, Chief Clinical Officer at symplr, reviews findings from their annual Compass Survey, which revealed the significant challenges hospitals face, driven by financial pressures, clinician burnout, and operational inefficiencies.  Fragmented technology systems create significant administrative burdens, and there is growing recognition that unifying healthcare operations and strategically implementing AI are crucial to streamlining workflows. Clinicians' involvement in the design and implementation of new processes and procedures is essential to ensure that patients' real-world needs are properly addressed. Susan explains, "The annual Compass Survey, is actually our fourth survey that we've done here at symplr, and the goal of the survey is to drive awareness around the need for and benefits of streamlining healthcare operations software.

Susan Grant, Chief Clinical Officer at symplr, reviews findings from their annual Compass Survey, which revealed the significant challenges hospitals face, driven by financial pressures, clinician burnout, and operational inefficiencies.  Fragmented technology systems create significant administrative burdens, and there is growing recognition that unifying healthcare operations and strategically implementing AI are crucial to streamlining workflows. Clinicians' involvement in the design and implementation of new processes and procedures is essential to ensure that patients' real-world needs are properly addressed. Susan explains, "The annual Compass Survey, is actually our fourth survey that we've done here at symplr, and the goal of the survey is to drive awareness around the need for and benefits of streamlining healthcare operations software. So it's a way to get feedback from our customers, clients, and leaders out in the healthcare world."  "I've been a Chief Nurse for the last 30 years in different health systems around the country, and we do tend to be a very reactive industry.

Exhausted from late diagnosed autism masking as an adult? In this episode of Adulting with Autism, host April chats with Wendela Whitcomb Marsh (Dr. Wendy), award-winning author, TEDx speaker, and US Autism Association board member, on neurodivergent self-acceptance, workplace accommodations, and advocacy for high-masking autistic adults—especially women/girls/trans/ND folks. After 40 years in special ed/psychology, Dr. Wendy founded (and sold) Adult Autism Assessment & Services, drawing from her autistic family (late husband + 2/3 adult kids). Her Adulting While Autistic series (Independent Living, Dating, Relating, Parenting, Working While Autistic) and SWAN Church (Scripture & Worship for All Neurotypes) empower underserved voices. Key insights: Adult vs. child autism: Masking hides symptoms (e.g., routines for eye contact/socializing); exhaustion from "faking normal." Late-dx challenges: Women/trans/non-binary often missed (3-6x overlap with autism); bullying/shame leads to self-doubt. Workplace/family support: Frame needs as productivity wins (e.g., noise-canceling headphones/WFH); believe autistic voices—no "faking." Clinician tips: Read autistic authors, seek ND-affirming pros; self-ID valid if no paper needed (for disability/accommodations). Advocacy ahead: Boa constrictor squeeze (hard times)—stay safe, speak out; churches need inclusivity (SWAN as model). For autistic young adults unmasking or parents advocating, Dr. Wendy's optimism shines: "Nothing wrong with you—world's not built for you."

Beta-glucans might be one of the most overlooked levers in immune resilience, and that has major implications for longevity. Talking with my long-time friends and colleagues Drs. Bob Rountree and Chris D'Adamo reminded me just how powerful this molecule truly is. The clinical reach here is stunning, from immune aging and cancer support to vaccine response, gut–brain effects, and overall resilience. What struck me most is how beta-glucans help the innate immune system respond more effectively over time, from overtraining and chronic infections to vaccine responsiveness. Clinicians really need this on their radar.

Advances in molecular diagnostics are reshaping how cancer is detected, monitored, and treated, and liquid biopsy is becoming central to that progress. This simple blood draw can reveal key tumor biology at diagnosis and over time, providing timely insight and guiding more precise decisions throughout a patient's journey. Clinicians now face an important challenge: knowing what is actionable today and what is coming next so more patients can benefit from the promise of these advances.As we kick off Season 7, host and patient advocate Karan Cushman expands this season's focus on Bringing Precision Medicine to Everyone with a deeper look inside the science of liquid biopsy. The conversation features two leaders shaping the field: Dr. Christian Rolfo, Division Director of Medical Oncology at The James Comprehensive Cancer Center at Ohio State University, and Dr. Roberto Borea, Medical Oncologist and emerging investigator from the Rolfo Lab.Together, they break down the scientific momentum driving liquid biopsy forward, including tumor fraction, MRD-guided treatment strategies, resistance monitoring, fragmentomics, and the expanding frontier of early detection. They also discuss the barriers that continue to slow broader adoption, such as assay variability, limited standardization, reimbursement gaps, and operational challenges in community settings.In this episode, we cover:• How tumor fraction is emerging as a meaningful real-time biomarker• Where MRD-driven escalation and de-escalation strategies are heading• The current promise and limitations of early detection and MCED testing• What is required to standardize liquid biopsy across reporting, workflows, and clinical trialsEpisode 70 offers a clear look at the advances researchers are helping drive right now and what these developments could mean for clinicians, laboratories, and patients in the near future.This conversation builds on episode 69 with Dr. Kashyap Patel, who introduced the foundations of liquid biopsy and its role in accelerating treatment decisions. Combined, these two episodes offer clinicians and patients an overview of where the science and real-world applications stand now and where the field is headed next.

In this episode, Michael Sapiro joins Kyle Buller to explore truth, healing, and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy through the lens of his new book, Truth Medicine. A clinical psychologist, ordained Zen Buddhist monk, retreat leader, and fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences, he blends Buddhist psychology, trauma work, and consciousness studies. The discussion focuses on how people discover and live their truth, and why that truth becomes the core medicine in healing. Early in the Podcast with Michael Sapiro Michael describes how years of clinical work and retreat facilitation shaped his understanding of healing. Real transformation happens when people speak truths they have never allowed themselves to say out loud. These truths often relate to childhood experiences, identity, and how people learned to stay safe. Key early themes include insight into: • Truth as a physical and emotional "ring" in the body • Personas formed in childhood to avoid rejection • Depression and anxiety caused by living from those personas The conversation explores how frightening it can be to challenge old roles and family narratives, yet how necessary it is for authentic healing. Core Insights from Michael Sapiro Michael outlines his model of preparation, psychedelic sessions, and integration, especially in ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. Preparation often includes discovering what he calls the "heart of the hurt" and building trust for the internal process. Core insights include: • Tracing patterns back to their origins in early experience • Using guided imagery, breathwork, and somatic awareness to practice surrender • Understanding healing as applying love to wounded parts • Understanding growth as becoming who you would be without old limits Additional points: • Medicine sessions create real practice in letting go • Defenses should be engaged with, not fought • Sensations in the body offer essential guidance Later Discussion and Takeaways with Michael Sapiro Michael compares one-on-one psychotherapy with retreat work. In group settings he holds space and supports safety, while in individual sessions he uses a blend of silence and active therapeutic guidance. He also shares personal truth work, including embracing his own "bigness," understanding ethics as part of spirituality, and learning to endure anxiety without falling into shame. Listeners gain practical guidance for nurturing wounded parts, developing the ability to endure challenging states, and allowing their strengths to emerge. Frequently Asked Questions Who is Michael Sapiro? Michael Sapiro is a clinical psychologist, ordained Zen Buddhist monk, psychedelic psychotherapist, retreat leader, and research fellow at the Institute of Noetic Sciences. What is the main idea of Truth Medicine by Michael Sapiro? Truth Medicine teaches that discovering and living one's personal truth is the core of healing, with psychedelics serving as a tool that helps reveal and embody that truth. How does Michael Sapiro use ketamine in therapy? He uses ketamine within a structured model involving preparation, supportive dosing sessions, and integration focused on compassion, endurance, and meaningful change. Does he only work in group settings? No. He leads retreats, but much of his work is individual psychedelic psychotherapy focused on trauma, personal truth, and growth. What can clinicians learn from his approach? Clinicians can learn how to balance guided intervention with open space, work directly with defenses, and support healing as both love and action. Closing Thoughts This conversation with Michael Sapiro offers a grounded, practical view of how truth, compassion, and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy can support real change in the current psychedelic resurgence. By blending body awareness, ethical clarity, and personal growth, this episode provides useful guidance for therapists, guides, and seekers who want to bring more truth medicine into their lives and communities. https://www.michaelsapiro.com
