Jinwoo asked cautiously.Ko: "물론이죠, 진우 씨. 무슨 일인가요?" 민서는 미소를 지으며 말했다.En: "Of course, Jinwoo. What's going on?" Minseo replied with a smile.Ko: 진우는 자신의 고민을 솔직히 털어놓았다.En: Jinwoo candidly revealed his worries.Ko: 그러자 민서는 진우의 어깨를 두드리며 격려의 말을 건넸다.En: Then, Minseo patted him on the shoulder and offered words of encouragement.Ko: "진우 씨, 너무 걱정하지 마세요. 준비한 만큼 하면 잘할 수 있을 거예요. 그리고 모든 것이 계획대로 되지 않더라도, 우리는 항상 대비책을 마련해야 해요."En: "Jinwoo, don't worry too much. You'll do well as long as you've prepared. And even if everything doesn't go as planned, we should always have a backup plan."Ko: 민서는 진우에게 스트레스를 관리하는 몇 가지 실용적인 팁도 알려주었다. 깊은 숨을 쉬고, 마음을 가라앉히며, 상황을 객관적으로 바라보는 연습이었다.En: Minseo also shared some practical tips with Jinwoo for managing stress, including taking deep breaths, calming the mind, and practicing looking at the situation objectively.Ko: 드디어 프레젠테이션 시간, 진우는 회의실에 들어섰다.En: Finally, it was time for the presentation, and Jinwoo stepped into the meeting room.Ko: 모든 것이 준비되어 있는 것처럼 보였다.En: Everything seemed ready.Ko: 하지만 중간에 갑작스러운 기술적 문제로 슬라이드가 제대로 작동하지 않았다.En: However, an unexpected technical issue prevented the slides from working properly midway through.Ko: 진우는 잠시 당황했지만, 민서의 조언이 떠올랐다.En: Jinwoo was momentarily flustered, but then remembered Minseo's advice.Ko: 그는 깊이 숨을 들이쉰 후, 침착하게 슬라이드 없이 진행하기로 했다.En: After taking a deep breath, he calmly decided to proceed without the slides.Ko: 준비된 내용을 차분히 설명했고, 예상보다 더 자연스럽게 이야기를 이어 나갔다.En: He explained the prepared content with poise and continued the discussion more naturally than he expected.Ko: 진우의 열정과 긴장된 순간에도 차분해진 태도는 상사의 주목을 받았다.En: Jinwoo's passion and his composed demeanor, even in tense moments, caught the attention of his boss.Ko: 회의가 끝난 후, 많은 동료들로부터 칭찬이 쏟아졌다.En: After the meeting, he received a shower of compliments from many colleagues.Ko: 진우는 이번 경험을 통해 팀워크의 중요성을 깨닫고, 누군가에게 도움을 받을 때 일이 더 순조롭게 진행될 수 있음을 알게 되었다.En: Through this experience, Jinwoo realized the importance of teamwork and how things could proceed more smoothly when receiving help from others.Ko: 그날 저녁, 진우는 민서에게 감사의 커피 한 잔을 건넸다.En: That evening, Jinwoo handed a thank-you cup of coffee to Minseo.Ko: "민서 씨 덕분에 잘 마무리할 수 있었어요. 정말 고마워요."En: "Thanks to you, I was able to finish well. I'm really grateful."Ko: 민서는 환하게 웃으며 말했다. "진우 씨의 노력이 있었기에 가능한 일이었어요. 다음에도 함께 잘해봐요."En: Minseo smiled brightly and said, "It was possible because of your hard work, Jinwoo. Let's do well together next time too."Ko: 여름 햇살이 창문을 통해 비치던 그날, 진우는 다른 무엇보다 중요한 것을 배웠다. 혼자가 아닌, 서로의 힘으로 더 나은 결과를 만들어내는 법을.En: On the day when the summer sun streamed through the window, Jinwoo learned something more important than anything else: the way to create better results through mutual strength, rather than being alone.

Surgical techniques in gynecology vary widely between surgeons, creating both excitement and frustration for residents trying to learn the "right way" to perform procedures. Howard and guest host Maddie White discuss this and more:• Trocar placement during laparoscopy requires careful consideration of patient factors and potential adhesions• Elevating the abdomen during trocar placement remains standard practice, though definitive evidence on its necessity would require studies of over 100,000 patients• Surgeons should understand power analysis to recognize when studies are underpowered to detect meaningful differences in rare complications• Visceral slide technique using ultrasound can identify adhesions and determine the safest entry point for laparoscopic surgery• Palmer's point may no longer be the safest entry point for many patients given the prevalence of bariatric surgeries• Jain's point (lateral to the umbilicus) may now be statistically safer for many patients with complex surgical histories• Vaginal cuff dehiscence rates are 6-10 times higher with laparoscopic/robotic hysterectomy compared to vaginal approaches• The higher dehiscence rate stems from using energy devices for colpotomy rather than cold scalpel techniques• Barbed sutures simplify cuff closure but don't reduce dehiscence rates compared to standard suturing techniques• Surgery consists of "a thousand little things done well" - mastering these micro-skills distinguishes excellent surgeons00:00:00 Surgical Techniques: Excited and Frustrated00:08:00 Elevation During Trocar Placement 00:17:00 Evidence and Power Analysis00:21:35 Visceral Slide Technique00:35:10 Alternative Trocar Entry Points00:40:10 Cuff Closure and Dehiscence Risk00:51:45 Laparoscopic vs Vaginal Colpotomies01:03:00 First Accredited OB-GYN Residency ProgramFollow us on Instagram @thinkingaboutobgyn.

Higher food prices, economic instability, and other factors have made providing for a family even harder. 1 in 8 households in the U.S. is food insecure. That means these families don't have enough money or resources to buy enough food for everyone in their household. As recently as 2022, 7.3 million children lived in food insecure households. Also, 16.9% of children live in poverty.   SNAP Benefits More than 22 million U.S. households use SNAP benefits to help with food costs, as of April 2023. Sometimes known as “food stamps,” SNAP is the federal Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. People who receive SNAP benefits can use it to buy groceries, seeds, and plants for food. SNAP cannot be used to purchase hot food or household items like cleaning supplies, vitamins, or diapers.   CONNECT WITH Cedric Francis Website: https://www.lead2greatness.com/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/cedricbfrancis X (twitter): https://twitter.com/cedricbfrancis Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/leadtogreatness/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cedric-b-francis-a0544037/

Hey Girl! You know those moments that just make life feel so full circle? Well, that's what this episode felt like when I was interviewing my special guest for the show this week! Almost 8 yrs ago, I was just like you, searching instagram and social media for “Pelvic floor Exercises”, “Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy”, “Pregnancy Safe Exercises”,  “Prenatal Pelvic Floor” and more! Coming Fresh out of Grad school, pregnant with my second baby and now aware that Pelvic Floor PT exists and that guess what… I didn't need to pee my pants the last 6 years?! So I was motivated to keep my leaking from getting worse during the pregnancy and starting diving more into Pelvic Floor Health. At the time, I knew the “What” and some of the “Why” leaking and other pelvic issues occurred and that they were not normal, but I had yet to learn the “How” to fix it.     So after searching for reliable sources on social media (yes they exist but you have to do your research), I found the one and only Vaginal Whisperer, Dr. Sara Reardon. Wearing a Vulva costume and talking about taboo topics like poop and sex, she caught my attention immediately.  I started doing some of the exercises she talked about on her page and started to really see a difference and ultimately healed all of my incontinence! She was and is, a trailblazer for Pelvic health and Women's Health in general as she continues to educate, empower and support women all over the world while breaking down cultural barriers. With that being said, I am so thrilled to have Dr. Sara Reardon on the show this week to dive more into her story and how she continues to elevate the standard of care for women in the US and inspire clinicians (like me) to do the same!    Dr. Sara Reardon is a board-certified pelvic floor physical therapist with over 18 years of experience helping individuals prevent and overcome pelvic floor issues including, urinary leakage, painful sex, prolapse and discomfort during pregnancy, postpartum and menopause. Sara has been featured in Time, Yahoo, Harper's Bazaar, Romper, InStyle, Today, and numerous other podcasts, publications, and professional conferences about her advocacy and educational work as a pelvic floor therapist. She is also a TED presenter on Rethinking Postpartum Care. Sara is the Founder of The V-Hive, an online, on-demand pelvic floor fitness platform for pregnancy, postpartum, menopause, painful sex and pelvic floor strengthening. Sara lives in New Orleans with her husband and two sons. FLOORED: A Complete Guide to Women's Pelvic Floor Health at Every Age and Stage is her first book.   To connect with Sara or order her book Floored, see links at bottom of show notes.   If you want more support from me, reach out for 1:1 or group coaching, join my FREE and Private support group below and DOWNLOAD my new APP Pelvic Floor, Core & More that has my on demand 12 wk program, tracking features, pelvic floor 101 masterclass and more!    RESTORE is my first 12 wk online signature program hosted inside my new platform that will be an APP soon Pelvic Floor, Core & More! Inside that program I walk you through the basics of healing, restoring your breathing, posture, core function and overall strength and return to impact and intensity.  All with the guidance of me, a Pelvic Floor PT, in your pocket making sure that you are getting individualized support and feedback through the program during our weekly group coaching calls! This option is great for those that can't afford a one-on-one session for $200-$240, those that don't have access to a pelvic floor PT in person or those that want to have a structured organized program with support as they are phasing out of acute therapy treatments and working more independently.
