Podcasts about clinicians

Have you had one of those consults in which you're thinking, huh, sounds like the patient's goals are clear, it's really that the clinician consulting us disagrees with those goals?  To what extent is it our job as consultants to navigate, manage, or attend to clinician distress?  What happens when that clinician distress leads eventually to conflict between the consulting clinician and the palliative care team? Today our guests Sara Johnson, Yael Schenker, & Anne Kelly discuss these issues, including: A recent paper first authored by Yael asking if attending to clinician distress is our job, published in JPSM. See also the wonderful conversation in the response letters from multidisciplinary providers (e.g. of course  that's our job! And physicians may not be trained in therapy, but many social workers and chaplains are, and certainly psychologists). A SPACE pneumonic for addressing clinician conflict developed by Sara Johnson, Anne Kelly and others. They presented this at a recent AAHPM/HPNA meeting. See below for what SPACE stands for. We referenced a prior episode on therapeutic presence and creating a holding space with Kerri Brenner and Dani Chammas, and this article by Kerri.  We talked about the role of the consultant, including this classic paper on consultation etiquette by Diane Meier and Larry Beresford. Enjoy! -Alex Smith   SPACE: Navigating Conflict with Colleagues "Between stimulus and response there is a space. In that space is our power to choose our response."   -Viktor E. Frankl SPACE: Conflict Navigation Toolkit Self-awareness: Pause & Notice Before Responding What am I feeling?  Take own temperature. Where am I coming from?  What do I need? Perspective-Taking: Ask-Tell-Ask Where are they coming from? Check your understanding with them. "Tell me how you're thinking about this?" "I hear you are concerned about…is that right?" Agenda: Yours and theirs, then focus on common ground Where are we going together? "It seems like we both want…" Curiosity: Reframe and explore to understand Am I missing anything? Why is this kind, smart & hard-working colleague thinking differently than I am? "To help me better understand, what is your biggest concern about…?"  Empathy: For others: Empathic statements around the situation & silence For self: Your feelings are valid, reflect on it later.  You will misstep in tense moments: apologize, learn from it. Eating helps.

Most clinicians are great at caring for patients—but struggle to understand why and how they actually get paid as business owners. In this episode of the Uncaged Clinician Podcast, Kevin DeGroat breaks down a practical, clinician-friendly approach to money using an adapted Profit First framework designed specifically for service-based practices where the owner wears every hat. You'll learn why "whatever's left in the bank" is a dangerous way to pay yourself, how to separate your roles as owner, clinician, administrator, and growth leader, and why not all hours in your business are worth the same. Kevin explains: Why bank-balance accounting leads to overspending and underpaying yourself How to think about pay differently as an owner vs. a treating clinician Why administrative work should be paid at a different rate than patient care How understanding role-based pay makes hiring easier (and less emotional) When it actually makes sense to stop seeing patients altogether If you're a solopreneur—or planning to hire your first admin or clinician—this episode will help you build financial clarity, peace, and a sustainable growth plan.

Today's episode is a mashup of my favorite moments, quotes, and “clinic gems” from the year. These are the tools that made conversations easier, built more trust, and helped patients actually follow through… and I'm bringing all eight of them with me into 2026.Inside this episode, you'll learn:The simple mindset shift that instantly reduces clinician burnoutThe question that uncovers barriers faster than any advice ever willHow to start tough conversations about weight without creating defensivenessThe one identity-based exercise that helps patients move beyond the scaleThe exact line I use to avoid feeling cornered by those last-minute “oh by the way…” questionsResources Mentioned:Obesity Medicine Nutrition Course - use code POD15 for 15% off!132 | It's Not Your Job to Make Patients Change with Staci Belcher67 | Is Your Patient Noncompliant or Just Struggling? with Laura Koller68 | The Right Way to Talk Weight with Nina Crowley134 | Weight Doesn't Equal Worth, But It Still Impacts Health with Dr DoronSneak Peek Week Mini-Series (Goal-Weight Exercise with Jeannie Boyer) Any Questions?

“We've learned so much. Now, as PTs, we not only look at musculoskeletal and neuromuscular systems but also at pain science.” - Amy SteinPelvic pain is never just one system. It sits at the intersection of musculoskeletal function, nervous system regulation, hormonal shifts, immune activation, and lived experience. And for practitioners working with complex pelvic pain, endometriosis, bladder conditions, or postpartum and perimenopausal clients, progress often comes not from a single intervention, but from curiosity, collaboration, and a willingness to keep learning.Clinicians need to evolve alongside their patients. As our understanding of pain science, movement, nervous system regulation, and supporting therapies continues to expand, so does our ability to help people who have been dismissed or misdiagnosed. Staying innovative isn't about chasing every new tool. It means knowing when to turn the dial up, when to pull back, and how to individualize care in a way that truly supports healing.Today, I'm joined by Dr. Amy Stein, physical therapist and founder of Beyond Basics Physical Therapy (https://beyondbasicsphysicaltherapy.com/). Amy and I discuss her journey into pelvic pain care, how the field has evolved over the last two decades, the role of physical therapy within multidisciplinary care, how pain science has reshaped movement and rehab strategies, innovative tools like shockwave therapy, red light therapy, and neuromodulation, what to look for when referring to pelvic physical therapy, how to avoid common pitfalls in complex cases, why personalization is essential, and more.Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!---Learn more or watch the video version of this conversation at https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/innovations-in-pelvic-physical-therapy-with-amy-stein-of-beyond-basics-physical-therapy/.Connect with me and access our entire platform at IntegrativeWomensHealthInstitute.com (https://integrativewomenshealthinstitute.com/).

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.

Despite a range of effective prevention tools, HIV incidence continues to rise in Canada, with stark disparities across ethnicity, gender, Indigeneity and geography. Updated Canadian guidelines on HIV pre- and post-exposure prophylaxis reflect scientific advances since 2017 and address both new formulations and persistent barriers to equitable access.Dr. Darrell Tan, lead author and clinician scientist at St. Michael's Hospital, outlines several prophylaxis options now available. Daily oral tenofovir disoproxil fumarate with emtricitabine is close to 100 per cent effective with perfect adherence and remains forgiving of occasional missed doses. Long-acting injectable cabotegravir, administered every two months, shows even greater effectiveness in trials largely because it reduces the adherence challenges associated with daily pills, though cost and availability continue to limit uptake.Natasha Lawrence, a community health worker at Women's Health in Women's Hands Community Health Centre in Toronto, reports that most women she serves have never heard of pre-exposure prophylaxis. Many people perceive their HIV risk as low until discussions explore relationship dynamics, including uncertainty about partner fidelity or difficulty negotiating condom use. She highlights how power imbalances and gender-based violence shape women's risk and may limit the practicality of daily pills. Long-acting injectables can offer greater privacy and autonomy for some women, reducing the risk of partner detection. Public health messaging, she stresses, must be co-designed with communities to ensure cultural relevance and avoid stigma.Clinicians should initiate sexual health conversations routinely, not only when patients raise concerns. Pre-exposure prophylaxis can be discussed during visits for contraception, mental health or other routine care. When patients express interest, access should not be limited by rigid criteria. Long-acting options may be especially helpful for women who face safety or privacy concerns in their relationships.For more information from our sponsor, go to medicuspensionplan.comComments or questions?

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

Many clinicians are left wondering if their best work lies in the clinical field or the coaching/consulting arena. I've felt this dilemma myself, pondering how to balance my interests, endeavors, and the evolution of family life.

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.

Welcome to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked, the show where we unpack how this powerful medication is reshaping medicine, health, and everyday life.Today we are diving into the very latest science on semaglutide, the drug sold as Ozempic for diabetes and Wegovy for obesity, and what new research means for listeners who are using it or thinking about it.A new real world study in the journal Current Medical Research and Opinion followed people on once weekly semaglutide for two full years. Researchers found that on average, patients lost about thirty nine pounds, or nearly seventeen percent of their body weight, and most kept that weight off over the full twenty four months. People also saw improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol, blood sugar, and many moved from prediabetes or diabetes back to normal blood sugar levels. That is important, because it confirms that Ozempic is not just a quick fix but can be part of long term weight management when it is continued and combined with lifestyle changes.At the same time, doctors are getting clearer about downsides. A recent analysis from researchers in Utah, reported by Ladbible, warned that Ozempic related weight loss can come with a drop in lean mass, including muscle, of around ten percent. That is less loss than some earlier crash diets have caused, but it still matters. Losing muscle can weaken strength, slow metabolism, and be especially risky for older adults. Experts now stress pairing Ozempic with enough protein, resistance exercise, and medical follow up to protect muscle.For older listeners, the Association of American Medical Colleges reports that trials suggest these drugs can be safe and effective after age sixty five, but that adults over seventy five were rarely studied. Clinicians are urging extra caution in seniors because they are more prone to side effects like nausea, dehydration, and muscle loss, and they may already be on multiple medications.Researchers are also uncovering surprising new uses. Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center reports that glucagon like peptide drugs such as Ozempic may help people with obesity reduce their risk of several cancers linked to excess body fat, including breast and colon cancer. In an early study in breast cancer patients, these medications helped counteract the weight gain that often comes with treatment, which could improve long term heart and cancer outcomes if confirmed in larger trials.Scientists are even exploring effects on brain health. Imperial College London recently showed that another drug in the same family, called liraglutide, slowed brain shrinkage and cognitive decline in people with Alzheimer disease over one year. Patients on liraglutide had almost fifty percent less brain volume loss in key memory areas compared with placebo, and their thinking declined about eighteen percent more slowly. While this was not Ozempic itself, it suggests this whole class of drugs might play a future role in protecting the brain, and large phase three trials are now underway.There is also growing attention on mental health. Think Global Health highlights that when people lose even a modest amount of weight and improve metabolic health, their risk of depression and anxiety often falls. Some patients report better mood and fewer food cravings on Ozempic, while a small number describe emotional blunting or worries about identity after major weight loss. Regulators in Europe have examined rare reports of suicidal thoughts, but the United States Food and Drug Administration has said current evidence does not show a clear causal link. Still, it is essential for anyone on these medications to check in regularly with their care team about mood and mental health, not just the number on the scale.Finally, researchers are already working on what might come next. Scientists at Karolinska Institutet in Sweden recently reported a new experimental pill that burns fat by acting directly on muscle metabolism instead of appetite. In early human trials it improved blood sugar and body composition without reducing appetite or muscle mass. If it proves safe and effective, it may one day be used alone or together with drugs like Ozempic to achieve weight loss with fewer side effects.Taken together, the latest science tells us this. Ozempic and related medications can deliver major, sustained weight loss and improve heart and metabolic health. They may lower risks tied to obesity, from diabetes to some cancers, and could even have future roles in brain health. But they are not magic. Protecting muscle, supporting mental health, tailoring treatment to age, and combining medication with nutrition, movement, and sleep are all crucial.Thank you for tuning in to Ozempic Weightloss Unlocked.

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.

Featuring Dr. Lauren Hartman M.D.Dr. Jim sits down with Dr. Lauren Hartman, a double board-certified specialist in Adolescent Medicine and Pediatrics, contributor to Psychology Today, and author of the forthcoming book Freeing Children & Young Adults from Shame, Scales & Stigma.In this episode, Dr. Hartman breaks down what every parent, clinician, and educator needs to understand about eating disorders—and why it's not your fault. 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

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.

In this Clinician's Corner episode, Clarissa and Molly dive into what they lovingly (and accurately) call the "Hella-Days"—that stretch from early fall through New Year's where routines disappear, food is everywhere, emotions are high, and nervous systems are fried. Together, they unpack why this season is so activating for people with food addiction and nervous system sensitivity, and how to navigate it with values, boundaries, and a whole lot of self-compassion—whether you're surrounded by family or spending the holidays on your own. In This Episode Clarissa & Molly explore: Why the holidays can feel like the "Holiday Hunger Games" and "12 Days of Dysregulation" How the nervous system responds to the build-up from September to New Year's Using values as your North Star for holiday decisions Boundary tools and scripts for parties, family gatherings, and food pushers Why holiday food environments are an "engineered stressor" (hello, peppermint-everything marketing) Strategies for: Going to events without abandoning your recovery Deciding when not to go Coping with loneliness, isolation, and dark evenings Harm reduction during high-exposure events ("good, better, best" thinking) How to re-imagine your holiday story over time instead of chasing perfection Ideas for folks who love the holidays (Clarissmas) and folks who… don't (Molly

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. I think you're going to find this conversation eye-opening. ~DrKF Check out the show notes at https://www.drkarafitzgerald.com/fxmed-podcast/ for the full list of links and resources.
