In this timely discussion, Dr. Jennifer Reid listens in as Dr. Megan Moreno, Co-Medical Director for the AAP's Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental Health, challenges the outdated "addiction" narrative and reveals a transformative framework that empowers both parents and adolescents. Drawing from 15+ years of research at the intersection of technology and teen health, Dr. Moreno offers a refreshingly nuanced roadmap for families navigating the complex digital landscape—where the goal isn't to simply limit screen time, but to foster healthy, balanced relationships with technology in a world where screens are unavoidable.Key Points* Moving Beyond the "Addiction" Framework* Youth have grown weary of the addiction framework for social media use* The term "addiction" makes teens feel powerless* Focus instead on empowering conversations where teens feel they have control* Understanding Problematic Use* Three key aspects of problematic technology use:* Content: Repeatedly seeking harmful or inaccurate content* Crowding Out: When technology displaces important activities (sleep, relationships, schoolwork)* Relationship with Technology: Feeling anxious or unable to disconnect* The "Digital Native" Challenge* Today's adolescents are "digital natives" interacting with screens from a young age* Parents need to model healthy online-offline balance* Self-imposed limits can be effective role modeling* Identity Development Online* Teens use social media as part of identity development* They often "try out" new identities, hobbies, or friendships online* Multiple platforms allow teens to curate different aspects of their identity* Vulnerability Factors* Some teens are more vulnerable to negative effects of social media* Pre-existing mental health conditions can make online experiences more challenging* Strong offline support systems help mitigate negative online experiences* The Five C's Framework for Healthy Media Use* Child: Understanding each child's unique needs and characteristics* Content: Focusing on the quality and type of media being consumed* Calm: Building diverse tools for emotional regulation beyond screens* Crowding Out: Ensuring media doesn't displace essential activities like sleep* Communication: Maintaining open dialogue about technology use* Parental Guidance Approach* Parents can be curious learners alongside their teens* Focus on transferable skills: treating others well, maintaining safety, setting boundaries* Ask questions from a place of curiosity rather than judgmentResources Mentioned* American Academy of Pediatrics Family Media Plan tool (or Google "AAP Family Media Plan")* Common Sense Media for app and game reviews* The five C's framework: Child, Content, Calm, Crowding Out, Communication* American Academy of Pediatrics Center of Excellence on Social Media and Youth Mental HealthGuest: Dr. Megan Moreno - Professor of Pediatrics and Affiliate Professor of Educational Psychology at the University of Wisconsin-Madison; Academic Chief for the Division of General Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine; Principal Investigator of the Social Media and Adolescent Health Research Team.

Did you know that sleep-deprived doctors are more likely to make critical errors or that poor communication during patient handoffs can jeopardize care? In this episode, Dr. Christopher Landrigan, Chief of General Pediatrics at Boston Children's Hospital and co-founder of the I-PASS Patient Safety Institute, emphasizes the importance of systemic changes, improved communication, and financial support to enhance patient safety. Dr. Christopher Landrigan has spent his career addressing patient safety issues, particularly focusing on resident work hours and communication failures in hospitals. His early research revealed that sleep-deprived medical residents made significantly more errors, prompting changes to duty-hour policies to reduce risks to patients and providers. Recognizing that frequent handoffs during shorter shifts could lead to information loss, Dr. Landrigan co-developed the I-PASS system, a standardized communication framework to improve patient care transitions. I-PASS, now adapted for various specialties and roles, has been implemented across hospitals nationwide with support from organizations like the I-PASS Institute and regional partnerships such as the Kentucky Hospital Association. While progress has been made, Dr. Landrigan emphasizes the need for systemic change, behavior adaptation, and financial backing to scale successful patient safety programs across the complex health care system. Tune in to learn about Dr. Landrigan's work on resident hours and the I-PASS system's impact on patient safety!

My guest today is Dr. Nikki Johnson, a former pediatrician and co-director of FAIR in Medicine. We dive deep into the challenges parents face in finding trustworthy medical providers for their children and the broader implications of the current healthcare system. Dr. Nikki shares her journey through medical training and her eventual departure from clinical practice due to ethical concerns and the corporatization of medicine.We discuss the concept of perverse incentives in healthcare, particularly how insurance reimbursement structures can compromise the quality of care. Dr. Nikki highlights the shift in focus from patient-centered care to a more corporate-driven model, which often prioritizes profit over patient well-being. We also explore some lesser-known impacts of the Affordable Care Act on the medical landscape, including the rise of non-physician providers, and the challenges this poses for traditional medical practices.Throughout our conversation, we aim to empower parents to trust their instincts when it comes to their children's health and to advocate for better care. We also touch on the importance of transparency in healthcare and the need for a return to a more personal, relationship-driven approach to medicine. This episode is a call to action for parents to be informed and engaged in their children's healthcare decisions.Nicole “Dr. Nikki” M.

Send us a textHave you been having some trouble navigating the emotional aftermath of the recent election results? Me too. We can all easily see the writing on the wall: there are definitely going to be some societal challenges coming up ahead.I learned about the election results as I watched the sun rise through airport windows. It got me thinking about my culture, my gender, and how I've come to where I am today. In this podcast, I share stories of the women in my family, and some personal experiences about resilience, self-awareness, and breaking free from societal expectations.This isn't a political rant—it's about personal and collective empowerment and how we move forward. It's about choosing love over hate, showing up for ourselves and others, and taking control of our lives. It's about financial independence, challenging gender norms, and confronting some of the unconscious biases we carry. If you've ever felt stuck or like you're navigating the same struggles that I do, this episode is for you. Let's break barriers, build each other up, and create the life we deserve—together.As promised, here is the link to the article I recently wrote, entitled "The Tale of Two Books (and How I Broke the Binding on my Unwritten Instruction Manual)."Pause and ask yourself why things are the way they are... and who told you it had to be that way. We don't need to be victims to societal norms. We are allowed to question things when they are unjust or don't make sense. We are allowed to make changes in our lives for the better.

Send us a textIt's Halloween! While the kids are gearing up in their costumes, ready to take on magical roles, I'm thinking about the masks we all wear—not just on Halloween, but in our everyday lives. From superheroes to witches, kids transform in an instant. As adults, our ‘masks' often hide who we really are. In this episode, I share a story from my days as a pediatric resident, where putting on a ‘strong' mask helped me survive, but left me feeling isolated. Let's talk about the masks we wear, the roles we play, and what it might feel like to set one of them down.

Send us a textWelcome to Episode 24 of the podcast!This week, we're diving deep into parental stress and how it impacts our mental health and family dynamics. In this special episode, I'll reflect on my own journey as a parent. This year marks my 10th anniversary of motherhood—and I've been celebrating it all year long! We're also going to discuss some of the common challenges we parents face, how important "the village" is to our families, and the recent Advisory put out by the US Surgeon General on Parental Stress. Supporting parental mental health isn't just "nice" to do—it's essential for the health and wellbeing of our entire society. You can be a part of the solution by offering support to the parents in your life. Parental stress is real, but it's not just a personal issue—it's a public health concern. Support networks and community involvement are vital for parents' mental health. Workplaces, policies, and open discussions can play a role in easing the stress burden on parents. And, parents, it's okay to ask for help! It's not a sign of failure, it's a sign of strength!Resources:U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory on Parental Mental Health: "Parents Under Pressure"https://www.hhs.gov/surgeongeneral/priorities/parents/index.htmlStay Connected: Follow me on social media for more insights and support strategies!

Stress. It's everywhere. Sometimes the weight of it can be unbearable. It can be the source of a lot of drama - work place drama, family drama, even drama with our personal health. There are so many different ways of reducing stress out there - going on long walks, being in nature; surrounding yourself with supportive family and friends; taking breaks or even vacations; meditating, doing yoga; journaling.... the list goes on and on. For each person, the recipe for stress prevention and reduction will be a little different, and so it needs to be tailored to the individual. Even this may evolve over time and with changes in life. One thing's for sure, though: if we have a tendency to depend on factors outside of us to meet our needs and bring us happiness and peace, we are setting ourselves up to go right into a stress response. We can't always control what happens externally... but we might just be able to change our inner dialogue. In many cases, that alone can be a game-changer.

Last Fall, the World Health Organization declared that loneliness is a threat to our well-being. In fact, it can be just as detrimental to our health as smoking, excessive alcohol intake, or obesity. I think for most of us, this is shocking news because we tend to separate our emotional and mental health from our physical health, but this just shows how interconnected these areas are. They went on to say that people who are socially isolated tend to have a higher risk of anxiety, depression, dementia, and stroke.  What is it about social connection that is so protective? How can we tap into that?  Listen in to find out how.References:WHO launches commission to foster social connection: https://www.who.int/news/item/15-11-2023-who-launches-commission-to-foster-social-connectionCheck out Brene Brown's Ted Talk on the Power of Vulnerability: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCvmsMzlF7o Dr. Tanikella practices General Pediatrics, Integrative Medicine, and is an expert in Mind-Body medicine.

In this podcast episode, we are going to talk about nutrition! This is a topic that is discussed in my pediatric practice multiple times a day, and I find that there is a lot of confusion about it. Why wouldn't there be? We are constantly bombarded with information regarding the latest diet and nutrition fads. The American College of Lifestyle Medicine recommends a whole foods plant based diet, which is essentially a vegan diet (without the non-nutritive vegan foods that are highly processed, like doritos, fritos, chips!).  There's a good bit of research out there regarding this, and more can be found on their website at https://lifestylemedicine.org/In this conversation, for the sake of simplicity, I wanted to provide some broad recommendations for vegans, vegetarians, and omnivores alike, so that we can all move towards a healthier life and reduce our risk for common chronic diseases, like diabetes, high cholesterol, and heart disease. We deserve a life where we can be active with our kids and grandkids, and empower them to be healthy as well. Dr. Tanikella practices General Pediatrics, Integrative Medicine, and is an expert in Mind-Body medicine.

In this special episode of Public Health Matters, Dr. Christina Madison and special guest, Dr. Jose Cucalon Calderon emphasize the steps that need to be made in improving both language and cultural competency in health care. They also discuss Dr. Cucalon Calderon's advocacy work—particularly in vaccine advocacy—in public health, preventative health services, and health equities in underserved communities. About the Guest: Jose Cucalon Calderon MD FAAP is a Board-Certified Pediatrician practicing as an Associate Professor of Pediatrics for the University of Nevada, Reno School of Medicine after training in General Pediatrics at the University of South Alabama followed by working in Rural Alabama. Currently sited at Renown Children's in Reno, Nevada, Dr. Cucalon Calderon is a well-known anti-tobacco and e-cigarette, preventive health services, minority health and health care access advocate both in his state of practice, at the national and international level. He serves as the Nevada Chapter of the AAP's E-cigarette Chapter Champion and Vaccination representative as well as in multiple advisory and academic roles across our state. Being a native of Ecuador, Dr. Cucalon Calderon has experience on connecting non-English speaking families to preventive health services and among his special interests are tobacco related health care disparities, ethnic minority over representation of tobacco product use, chronic disease prevention, mental health destigmatization, mentorship and cultural humility in patient care and medical education. Key Takeaways: Trust in health care is crucial, and being a trusted messenger within a community can significantly impact health outcomes for patients. Understanding any cultural nuances and language barriers is essential for effective communication with patients while improving their access to and understanding of health care services. Collaboration among health care providers—including pharmacists—is necessary for holistic patient care and improving health outcomes within underserved communities. To promote health equity for minorities, health care providers should prioritize patient-centered care and cultural humility while addressing the social determinants of health to promote health equity.

Everywhere we turn, there's information. We are constantly absorbing it. Sometimes it happens so fast that we don't even realize that it's happened.  Have you ever listened to a song that was sad and found yourself moping around for hours afterwards? Maybe you've listened to someone talk heatedly about something and now you're feeling irritated, too.

A manual is a booklet that's written to help us understand how something works. In the coaching world, however, "the manual" refers to an unspoken set of beliefs and expectations that we set for the people in our lives. Because it's unspoken, the other person doesn't even know it exists... and, to be honest, you may not even realize it exists until you shed some light on it. Once we see it, it's easier to understand how this set of expectations and beliefs can negatively affect us. It can also give us some helpful insight into what we need to do to improve the quality of our relationships. Dr. Tanikella practices General Pediatrics, Integrative Medicine, and is an expert in Mind-Body medicine.

Every year on December 31st, we all look towards the new year with high hopes and aspirations. It represents a new page in the next chapter of our books. We end the year thinking about how we want the next 365 days (or, in this case, 366 days) to look and what we want to accomplish. For those of us who might be recovering high achievers, perfectionists, workaholics... it's easy to get a little crazy with our goals. My 2024 version of myself just set one of the hardest goals ever. Listen to find out more!Dr. Tanikella practices General Pediatrics, Integrative Medicine, and is an expert in Mind-Body medicine.

We're all busy people. It's hard when an obstacle, no matter how petty it is, springs up and messes with our flow. Everyone reacts to stressors a little differently. We have choices, though, and while we may initially be disappointed or upset, we get to make the final call on how we want to approach the disruption at hand. We can either let it ruin our day, or we can step back and give ourselves an opportunity to put things in perspective. Dr. Tanikella practices General Pediatrics, Integrative Medicine, and is an expert in Mind-Body medicine.

The Motivational Triad is a theory that sheds light on how our desires to maintain comfort, avoid pain, and be efficient with our energy influence our motivation to change (or not change!)

Burnout is work place related stress which is characterized by a state of physical and/or emotional exhaustion, a sense of reduced accomplishment, and, often, a loss of personal identity.The repercussions of burnout/moral injury are serious. In fact, in the United States, an estimated 300 to 400 doctors die by suicide each year, which is more than double that of general population.We are in a health care crisis. This affects not just the medical team, but also the patients we serve. The band-aids that are tenuously holding the system together are starting to come undone. I ask that we, as a community, come together to seek out and implement solutions that sustainable.
