What is one small commitment your clients can make that will move them in the right direction? In this solocast episode of the IRH Clinician's Corner, Margaret Floyd Barry highlights a powerful strategy shared during the recent Clinical Success Showcase. As more clients consider or begin GLP1 agonist medications, practitioners face new challenges around compliance and client readiness. Drawing from both current research and firsthand clinical insights, this episode explores how setting clear, client-driven minimum commitments (like prioritizing protein, strength training, and escalating medications responsibly) can boost compliance and long-term outcomes, not only for those on GLP1s but for all clients engaged in transformative health work.

Healthcare is filled with great ideas, promising technologies, and passionate clinicians, but why do so many innovation efforts fail? In this episode, Dale Ellicott joins Dr. Andrea Austin to explore what it really takes to create sustainable change in healthcare. From his early experiences introducing groundbreaking rehabilitation technologies to his current work at Rely Health, Dale shares lessons about resistance to change, organizational alignment, and the importance of putting patients first. Together, they discuss the realities of value-based care, the challenges clinicians face when navigating fragmented healthcare systems, and the growing role of AI in supporting, not replacing human connection. Dale explains how Rely Health combines agentic AI with human care navigators to help patients schedule appointments, access transportation, connect with primary care, and overcome barriers that often lead to poor outcomes and avoidable readmissions. The conversation offers practical guidance for clinicians, leaders, and innovators who want to move beyond pilot programs and build solutions that truly improve healthcare delivery. They discussed: How a values-based decision shaped Dale's career in healthcare innovation Why healthcare organizations struggle to adopt new technology The dangers of "pilotitis" and failed innovation projects How AI-powered care navigation improves patient follow-up Lessons for clinicians who want to become successful change-makers

Perimenopause, Insulin Resistance, and Persistent Muscle & Joint Pain: A Functional Medicine Framework: Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses perimenopausal musculoskeletal symptoms—new or persistent joint pain, muscle aches, and tendon problems—and highlights a Clinician's Journal article by physical therapist Tara Moore proposing insulin resistance screening in perimenopausal musculoskeletal care. She explains that declining estradiol during the menopausal transition can worsen insulin signaling, increase visceral fat, and reduce insulin sensitivity, affecting skeletal muscle recovery and potentially contributing to tendinopathies and poor or short-lived responses to localized treatments like PT. The framework emphasizes assessing systemic metabolic contributors (e.g., sedentary behavior, high-carbohydrate nutrition patterns, PCOS, central weight gain, stress, sleep disruption) and addressing mediators such as inflammation and impaired glucose utilization. She suggests integrating metabolic risk assessment, sleep and stress strategies, resistance training, and interdisciplinary referrals, arguing that nutrition and supplementation—especially a low-carb approach—may improve recovery and pain outcomes.
In this episode of The Light Inside, host Jeffrey Besecker welcomes Ben Oofana for a deep dive into the complexities of relational ambiguity, separation, and unresolved grief. They discuss how these emotional states can activate older attachment patterns, leading clients into cycles of connection-restoring emotional rumination that mimic repair but often result in reactivation of past traumas. The conversation emphasizes the importance for clinicians to formulate care strategies when clients are driven by grief, shame, longing, or relational threats. By understanding these dynamics, therapists can help clients move beyond fixed narratives and reclaim their agency, differentiation, and adaptive contact. Tune in to explore these transformative insights and more.Timestamp00:00:00 - Introduction to The Light Inside00:00:22 - Relational Ambiguity and Emotional Rumination00:01:10 - Mint Mobile Advertisement00:02:24 - Early Attachment Learning and Emotional Rumination00:03:28 - Clinician's Role in Addressing Rumination00:04:06 - Ben Ofana's Background in Somatic Therapies00:05:57 - Early Relational Patterns and Their Impact00:09:08 - Transition from Implicit Learning to Narrative Identity00:12:04 - Psychological Arousal and Relational Misinterpretation00:14:08 - Emotional Processing and Cognitive Understanding00:17:12 - Slowing Down and Holding the Field00:19:14 - Relational Dynamics and Overextension00:21:00 - Personal Reflections on Emotional Saturation00:24:44 - Fear of Loss and Desperation in Relationships00:25:55 - Constructive Work with Rumination00:28:26 - Clinical Takeaways and Interventions00:31:22 - Overthinking and Cognitive Cycles00:34:09 - Healing Process and Letting Go of Unhealthy Attachments00:35:26 - Relational Contact and Boundaries00:38:27 - Personal Experience with Anger and Guilt-Shame Cycle00:40:27 - Core Childhood Patterns and Activation00:42:43 - Emotional States and Relationship Dynamics00:44:02 - Biological Flooding and Regulation00:45:19 - Skills for Deactivating Emotional States00:46:51 - Insight and Internal Change00:48:09 - Attunement and Empathy in Therapy00:50:10 - Client Awareness and Emotional Processing00:52:11 - Tracking and Metabolizing Bias in TherapyCreditsHost: Jeffrey BeseckerGuest:Ben OofanaExecutive Program Director: Anna GetzProduction Team: Aloft Media GroupMusic: Courtesy of Aloft Media GroupConnect with host Jeffrey Besecker on LinkedIn.What if many of the secondary behaviors we label as “seeking safety” are actually attempts to restore coherence at the deeper primary level?Developmental and attachment research suggests that before children can reason about trust, risk, or safety, they are learning through load, responsiveness, attunement, and the capacity of caregivers to regulate environmental demands.

What does freedom actually mean for you as a clinic owner - and what is it costing you to get it?In this episode of the Grow Your Clinic podcast, we challenge the most common misconception in business ownership: that freedom means more time off. We unpack why having Fridays free doesn't mean your mind is free, and why true freedom is less about escaping your clinic and more about designing it intentionally. We explore how structuring your week with constraints can actually unlock more mental clarity, why embracing responsibility often leads to greater fulfilment than stepping back from it, and how to reverse-engineer your ideal work-life balance by getting honest about your finances, priorities and what you're really chasing.If you're tired of running a business that owns you instead of the other way around, this episode will challenge how you think about freedom — and give you the tools to build it on your own terms.Need to systemise your clinic?

A raised glycine level can point to a surprisingly broad range of conditions. In this episode, James Nurse is joined by Arthavan Selvanathan and Curtis Coughlin to discuss their review, The History and Nosology of the Glycine Disorders: A Framework for Clinicians. Together they explore why not all hyperglycinaemia is nonketotic hyperglycinaemia (NKH), how our understanding of glycine disorders has evolved, and how clinicians can navigate the differential diagnosis of elevated glycine in practice. From classic and attenuated NKH to lipoate deficiency syndromes, pyridoxine-related disorders, and important phenocopies such as valproate exposure, this episode provides a practical framework for approaching high glycine levels.

Family Health Centers in Louisville, Kentucky adopted the ambient note-taking tool from Sunoh.ai to cut down on doctors' filling out notes during family times in the evenings and even way into the night. In this information-rich interview, Chief Clinical Informatics Officer Cynthia Cox discusses how Family Health Centers adopted Sunoh.ai and the main ways it's helped them on this key goal and others.The initiative came about after a few doctors heard of ambient scribes and wanted to try it. The health center started by offering the tool to these doctors, but then realized it had a great opportunity to reach out and introduce it to other doctors experiencing burn-out. A demo video of the tool in action was enough to persuade many to use it. Family Health Center EHR trainers came into the practice to work side-by-side with doctors, training them on Sunoh.ai. And the doctors are happy with the change with many of them using the scribe for more than 90% of their notes.Learn more about Family Health Centers: https://www.fhclouisville.org/Learn more about eCW: https://www.eclinicalworks.com/Healthcare IT Community: https://www.healthcareittoday.com/

Could your elderly patient or loved one be living with a concussion that no one ever diagnosed? Too often, we associate falls in older adults with broken hips or "just getting older," overlooking the possibility of a brain injury. When memory problems, balance issues, or mood changes appear after a fall, they're frequently dismissed as normal aging instead of signs of a treatable concussion. In this episode, we explore why older adults are one of the most overlooked populations in concussion care, how age-related assumptions can delay recovery, and what clinicians and families can do to recognize the signs and advocate for better outcomes. BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU'LL DISCOVER: Why falls are the leading cause of traumatic brain injury in older adults—and why concussions are often missed. How concussion symptoms can be mistaken for normal aging or even early dementia. The unique challenges and opportunities for concussion recovery in the aging brain. The simple question every clinician and family member should ask after a fall that could change someone's recovery journey. Whether you're a healthcare provider, caregiver, or someone supporting an aging loved one, this episode will challenge the way you think about falls and empower you to recognize the hidden signs of concussion that deserve attention.

The Future of Men's and Women's Health: Testosterone, Public Policy, and Preventative Care What if the hormone most associated with men's health is also one of the most underutilized tools in women's medicine — and the biggest barrier isn't science, it's politics? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Helen Bernie urologist and tireless advocate for hormone health reform, to unpack why testosterone remains one of the most misunderstood, over-regulated, and under-prescribed interventions in modern medicine. We go deep on the FDA, the data, and what it's actually going to take to change the system.

Are you paying your practitioners fairly - or just paying them?In this episode of the Grow Your Clinic podcast, we sit down with Sara Siami, founder of The People Plugin, to tackle one of the most avoided conversations in clinic ownership: practitioner pay. We break down how to build a clear pay philosophy that aligns with your clinic's goals, structure a remuneration framework that rewards high performers without blowing your budget, and run performance reviews that actually mean something. We also cover the true cost of employment (hint: it's more than the salary), how to benchmark against industry standards, and the legal minefield of contractor vs. employee classification - including the sham contracting risks that could cost your clinic big.If you're ready to stop winging pay conversations and build a structure that rewards performance and protects your bottom line, this episode is your playbook.Resources:You can find Sara Siami at https://www.thepeopleplugin.com/ and book in with her at https://meetings.hubspot.com/sara-siami Need to systemise your clinic?

In today's Ask Abundance, I'm joined by Abundance consultant Rebecca A. E. Smith, Ph.D., and we're talking about the part of going solo that nobody really warns you about: the moment you realize the team you thought you weren't even leaning on was actually holding up more than you knew. We get into why the loneliness of private practice isn't really a clinical problem, how to sort out what you actually need from what you're telling yourself you need, and what it looks like to build the kind of support and connection that doesn't require sharing a hallway with anyone.

Have a business idea scribbled in your Notes app?A coaching offer you can't stop thinking about?A course, consulting business, product, podcast, or creative project that keeps tugging at your heart?If you've ever wondered how clinicians actually make the leap into entrepreneurship, this episode is for you.In this episode, we break down the three most common paths clinicians take when building a business:✔️ Keeping your full-time clinical job while building on the side✔️ Transitioning to part-time clinical work while growing your business✔️ Leaving medicine entirely and going all-in on entrepreneurshipYou'll learn the pros, cons, risks, benefits, and realities of each path—including the financial, emotional, and practical considerations most people don't talk about.Because despite what social media may suggest, there is no single "right" way to become an entrepreneur.The best path is the one that aligns with your goals, finances, risk tolerance, and season of life.Key Takeaways:Why entrepreneurship isn't all-or-nothingThe benefits and drawbacks of building a side hustle while working full-timeWhy part-time clinical work can create valuable entrepreneurial runwayThe truth about quitting medicine and going all-in on a businessHow financial stability impacts business growthUnderstanding your personal risk toleranceThe importance of creating optionality in your careerWhy clinicians already possess many entrepreneurial skillsHow to determine which path fits your current life circumstancesYou do not have to burn down your clinical career to build something meaningful outside of medicine.Entrepreneurship can be strategic, intentional, and sustainable.The goal isn't necessarily to leave medicine.The goal is to create options.Join the Clinician Entrepreneur Collective Waitlist: www.tracybingaman.com/waitlist Keywords: clinician entrepreneur, healthcare entrepreneurship, physician assistant business, PA entrepreneur, clinician side hustle, healthcare side business, clinician coaching business, clinician entrepreneur collective, part time clinical work, physician associate entrepreneur, healthcare coaching business, clinician burnout, entrepreneurship for healthcare providers, medical side hustle, healthcare business ideas, clinician career transition, healthcare leadership, entrepreneur mindset, physician assistant career growth, make medicine optional
What is required from both instructors and students to teach and learn clinical judgment? Our EMS profession is a place where right answers are not always cut and dry and grace might be the most important skill in the room. In this episode, guest Jeff Anderson, Paramedic Program Director at Bossier Parish Community College joins hosts Maia Dorsett, Hilary Gates and Ginger Locke for an honest, humbling conversation about what it really takes to teach clinical judgment. They dig into the gap between what students hear in the classroom and what they absorb in the field, why preceptors and educators can be in tension and how educators can struggle with ego and reactivity. They share real stories from their programs, talk through how they handle their own emotional reactions, and offer practical advice for educators trying to make peace with a profession that doesn't fit neatly into a protocol. Whether you're a program director, a preceptor, or someone still figuring out how to teach the grey, this one's for you.Rob Lawrence provides the "Rob Recap."Mentioned in the episode:Daniel Kahneman, "Thinking Fast and Slow": https://www.amazon.com/Thinking-Fast-Slow-Daniel-Kahneman/dp/0374533555Pat Croskerry, Clinical Decision Making: https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMp1303712The EMS Educator is published on the first Friday of every month!

Dr. Ruchi Gupta, board-certified pediatrician and founding director of the Center for Food Allergy and Asthma Research (CFAAR), and PA Gary Falcetano joined forces on a Food Allergy Research and Education (FARE) webinar to discuss nuances and insights for managing food allergies across a patient's life. In this episode we share some of the important questions that were asked about specific IgE blood testing, skin testing, component resolved diagnostics, oral food challenges, guideline updates, and common pitfalls. We also explore baked egg and baked milk tolerance, access and affordability barriers, and early peanut introduction in high-risk infants. Clinicians will leave with a clearer framework for interpreting results, selecting the right test, and applying diagnostics to improve management decisions.

Real Life Pharmacology - Pharmacology Education for Health Care Professionals
Serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) are a class of antidepressants that increase serotonin and norepinephrine levels in the brain. Common agents include venlafaxine (Effexor XR), desvenlafaxine (Pristiq), duloxetine (Cymbalta), levomilnacipran (Fetzima), and milnacipran (Savella). In addition to treating depression and anxiety disorders, several SNRIs have important pain indications, making them especially useful in patients with neuropathy, fibromyalgia, or chronic musculoskeletal pain. Common adverse effects include nausea, sweating, insomnia, sexual dysfunction, and elevated blood pressure. Clinicians should also remember the significant discontinuation risk associated with shorter half-life agents like venlafaxine and desvenlafaxine.

In this episode of Clinician's Corner, Molly and Clarissa get real about one of the most pervasive and painful barriers in recovery from ultra-processed food use disorder: shame and stigma. Fresh off facilitating two back-to-back retreats (with Vera joining both!), they bring the depth of those in-person conversations directly to you. This is the kind of episode that meets you where you are — no toxic positivity, no oversimplified "just love yourself" advice, and absolutely no shaming you into change. In this episode, you'll hear: The ancient roots of stigma and how it evolved from physical branding to the labels we carry today How external stigma becomes internalized — and why that inner critic is the real battleground Why shame is rarely a catalyst for sustainable change (and why "hitting bottom" is not a recovery strategy) The ways shame quietly shrinks our lives: postponing travel, relationships, photos, joy — until we're "fixed" Whether shame can ever be an ally, and when it becomes maladaptive Why self-compassion is the antidote to shame — but it's not the whole story The difference between doing this work cognitively vs. somatically, and why both matter What it looks like to stop fighting shame and start collaborating with it instead Exploring Shame Resource A note for listeners: This is a big ask. Everything we talk about today is deeply ingrained — not a simple reframe. Give yourself permission to take it slowly. You don't have to figure this out in 60 minutes (it's taken us decades, and we're still in it). Connect with us:

Mariam Shapera is a family doctor. In medical school, she got one lecture on autism, and it was clinical and deficit-focused. Then she became an autism mom, and everything she thought she knew got rewritten by her own son. In this Seen and Heard episode, Mariam sits down with Rob to talk about raising her nine-year-old son, who is minimally speaking and autistic, alongside his neurotypical older sister and younger brother. She and her husband, also a physician, started noticing differences before his first birthday. He was diagnosed at three. They began ABA and speech therapy even earlier, at two and a half. Mariam brings a rare double perspective — doctor and parent — and she is direct about what the medical world gets wrong. Clinicians need to trust parents. A child cannot learn while dysregulated, so connection and regulation have to come first. And families have to actually click with their therapists for any of it to work. What you'll hear: - The early signs she and her husband noticed before age one - Why the developmental assessment felt like a list of everything he couldn't do - The diagnosis day, and the psychiatrist who delivered it with hope instead of fear - Why he was given "moderate autism" and no level, and why that adds confusion - Life built around routine and predictability, and how she preps him for change - A recent win: his speech opening up, starting conversations, sharing wants and likes - His strengths: perfect pitch, a love of nonfiction, and teaching himself to read - Her message to other doctors, and to other autism parents "You really have to trust the parents. The parents know what they think." — Mariam Shapera ABOUT THE GUEST Mariam Shapera is a family doctor and autism mom. She and her husband, also a physician, have three children: a nine-year-old son who is minimally speaking and autistic, an older neurotypical daughter, and a younger son. They began ABA and speech therapy when he was two and a half, and he was formally diagnosed at three. Mariam advocates for a more compassionate, parent-centered approach in clinical settings.

How often do you factor travel into your clinical assessment? In this episode of the IRH Clinician's Corner, Margaret Floyd Barry sits down with Dr. Monisha Bhanote, a world-renowned expert in integrative longevity medicine. In today's conversation, we uncover a surprisingly critical topic for functional health practitioners: how to support clients during travel. Whether it's work trips, family vacations, or overseas adventures, travel can wreak havoc on even the best clinical protocols—derailing digestion, lowering immunity, and adding layers of physiological stress. Together, they dive into the biology of travel-related challenges, exploring the stacked physiological stressors your clients face and the evidence-based strategies that can keep their healing on track when they're far from home. Inside this episode, we explore: Why travel can quietly derail even the best clinical protocols The five biological pathways most impacted when clients leave home What really happens to the gut during air travel How disrupted sleep, stress, and time zone changes affect immunity and recovery Simple interventions that can dramatically improve travel resilience The overlooked conversation every practitioner should be having with their clients before they travel The Clinician's Corner is brought to you by the Institute of Restorative Health.
