If you have a high-stakes job like medicine, shame can show up in unexpected and unwelcome places. Doctors have incredibly high societal expectations, with constant pressure to be invulnerable. It's time to challenge these unrealistic expectations and foster an environment that supports doctors in their vulnerability.This week, we're featuring one of our most popular and impactful episodes from 2023 to help you identify and combat shame. In this episode, Dr Sandy Miles discusses the impact of shame on doctors and how we can address it by changing the toxic stories we tell ourselves.We all make mistakes, but shame keeps us from being objective and fair, leading us feeling like we're inherently bad or wrong. Finding ways to be kinder and more supportive to ourselves will help not only our wellbeing, but will brighten the lives of those closest to us.Listen to this episode toDiscover the powerful impact shame has on us, and how our wellbeing and professional identity can be affectedExplore the different ways we respond to shameLearn how to create a healthier and more supportive environmentEpisode highlights[00:04:37] What is shame?[00:11:56] How identities are tied to shame[00:15:16] How people respond to shame[00:17:40] How to respond to shame[00:26:43] Shame and perfectionism in healthcare[00:31:31] How to overcome maladaptive perfectionism[00:34:22] Fostering a growth mindset[00:36:44] How to combat shame[00:47:01] Where to find help[00:48:40] Sandy's top tips for deadling with shameAbout the guestSandy Miles is a practising GP and a medical educator.

Episode 20 is about Twenty20 cricket. T20 to most fans these days. But this episode isn't about cricket. About 20 years ago the English cricket authorities identified a problem. Falling attendances, reducing relevance and people moving away from cricket. This week's guest, Stuart Robertson, was the marketing manager at the time. Luckily, he knew his marketing onions and used researched, insight and a deep understanding of the problem to 'invent' T20 cricket. This isn't a podcast about cricket, although we do chat a lot about it. It's a podcast about marketing and you'll find a whole host of information about how to solve problems through a marketing lens from this show. And finally, we've got a T.O.P.T.I.P from Jane Roper, from Behind The Ad. If UTM tracking is lost on you, this is for you.

Our guest today is Laura Mucha, who studied psychology, philosophy and flying trapeze,  worked as a face painter,and swam in Antarctica before becoming a lawyer for an international law firm. Then, when she was hit by a car aged 29, she decided to change career – she's now an award-winning poet, author, broadcaster, performer and speaker, and most recently the author of the fabulously named book Love Factually, which is about the science of who, how, and why we love. Laura was so much fun to talk to, and full of wisdom too. We covered some big topics in this interview – love, death, and poetry among them – and she also mentioned some fascinating-sounding books about creativity.

Pre-order The Joy of WorkFollow AdamSign up for Eat Sleep UpdatesWe’re talking work culture in different ways for the next few episodes. The next two episodes after this are in the police force. But today’s guest is the best selling author of the year - Adam Kay. This is Going to Hurt : Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor has sold over a million copies. It’s also won the readers’ choice book of the year this year. So there’s a chance you’ve read it and if so you will love the discussion with Adam Kay because he takes us into the working environment in hospitals. If you’ve not read it I could not recommend this beautiful, funny, principled book more. Adam explains in the book that the title Junior Doctor is a touch misleading - everyone who isn’t a consultant is titled a junior doctor. He is successful comedy writer who wrote the book 7 years after leaving the health service after a terrible terrible day at work. He wrote it because he found underpaid overworked health workers being politicised by the vampires who run government. Specifically the multi-millionaire former health secretary who claimed that in some way that doctors were greedy. The book is the funniest thing you’ll read this year and we covered that but we also talked through the working culture in hospitals. US listeners will know that the issue of single payer health care is a hot topic in the US - in the UK we have the NHS and it’s worth saying as Adam says it is a source of national pride. We just need to fund it properly. I hope you enjoy this as much as I did. I joined Adam for a chat at restaurant in West London. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Two weeks ago we spoke about how all of our training efforts have the potential to create data. This week, we're discussing what that looks like in practice. Sky's Derek Mitchell joins Owen and Ross G to discuss how we can collect and visualise data so that it can help us shape our learning engagements. If you'd like to share your thoughts on this episode, you can find us on Twitter @RossGarnerGP and @OwenFerguson. Derek is on LinkedIn. To find out more about GoodPractice, visit goodpractice.com or tweet us @GoodPractice or @GoodPracticeAus. You can see Derek's data dashboard by following this link: https://s3.amazonaws.com/goodpractice-podcast/sky-dashboard.pptx  If you were intrigued by the use of the term 'Luddite', the BBC has an excellent article explaining the origin of the term. It explains that the Luddites were not anti-technology, but were anti-wage-cuts, which could be a useful lesson for those of us embracing automation at work. The article is available here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-17770171  The book that Owen recommended was Creative Selection: Inside Apple's Design Process by Ken Kocienda, available at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Creative-Selection-Inside-Apples-Process-ebook/dp/B07F18HYX3  Ross recommended Adam Kay's This Is Going to Hurt: Secret Diaries of a Junior Doctor, available at: https://www.amazon.co.uk/This-Going-Hurt-Secret-Diaries-ebook/dp/B06XWDJRGS  With thanks to Mike Koenig for his 'Happy Halloween' sound effect, downloaded from http://soundbible.com/2080-Halloween-Vocals.html / CC BY 3.0.
