As the founding director of the UCLA PEERS Program, Dr. Laugeson shares insights from her globally recognized social skills training, used in over 150 countries. She joins host Brad to discuss how physicians can apply ecologically valid social skills to build friendships and network effectively.

Whether you're a busy parent or a new physician in an unfamiliar city, this episode provides actionable tips to forge meaningful connections and navigate social challenges with confidence.Three Actionable Takeaways:Start Conversations with Common Interests – Initiate cold conversations or join group discussions by commenting on shared contexts (e.g., a conference session or a kids' sports event), avoiding abrupt introductions or negative “policing” to build rapport naturally.Plan Get-Togethers Strategically – Match the setting to the friendship stage (casual for new connections, personal for established ones) and invite people with shared interests or compatible personalities to foster chemistry and connection.Resolve Conflicts Effectively – Use a structured approach to conflicts: stay calm, practice active empathic listening by paraphrasing the other person's perspective, use “I” statements to explain your side, apologize for misunderstandings, and propose future-oriented solutions.About the Show:Succeed In Medicine covers patient interactions, burnout, career growth, personal finance, and more. If you're tired of dull medical lectures, tune in for real-world lessons we should have learned in med school!About the Guest:Dr. Elizabeth Laugeson is a clinical professor in the Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at UCLA and a licensed clinical psychologist.

Have you ever had a friendship end without any real explanation? This week on A Really Good Cry, I’m opening up about one of the hardest lessons I’ve had to learn as an adult: not every friendship is meant to last, and sometimes, you won’t get a reason why. I’ll share the story of a connection that felt full of potential, only to end without explanation. It left me feeling confused, a bit heartbroken, and honestly, kind of spiraling for a while. More than just a story of rejection, this episode is about what it taught me—about communication, grace, and how much energy we give to people who’ve already let go. I’ll also walk through the tools and mindset shifts that helped me move forward, and the surprising ways I’ve found deeper, more aligned friendships since. If you’ve ever felt confused, hurt, or quietly heartbroken over a friendship that faded too fast, this one’s for you. You’re not alone—and you’re not the only one still trying to understand.

Tim Kennedy is a decorated Green Beret, former UFC fighter, entrepreneur, and bestselling author known for his relentless drive, outspoken authenticity, and commitment to service. From his upbringing on California's Central Coast to his high-profile military and athletic careers, Tim has built a life defined by grit, discipline, and meaningful connections.

On this episode we talk about: How Tim's family and upbringing on the Central Coast of California shaped his values and work ethic The importance of surrounding yourself with high-quality people and how to build real friendships as an adult Lessons learned from homeschooling, early independence, and being launched into life at a young age The role of grit, discipline, and consistency in both parenting and professional success Reflections on fatherhood, the emotional journey of watching your kids grow, and why Tim believes family is the ultimate source of fulfillment Why real happiness and meaning come from relationships and service, not just freedom or doing whatever you want The founding of Apogee Strong and how Tim is helping the next generation develop critical life skills Top 3 Takeaways Character Attracts Character: The best way to build a strong network is to be sincere, honest, and real—qualities that naturally attract other high-quality people. Grit and Discipline Are Foundational: Early lessons in hard work, independence, and consistency set the stage for lifelong success, both in family and business. Relationships Are Everything: True fulfillment comes from investing in family and friendships—solving for freedom alone leads to emptiness, but serving others brings lasting happiness. Notable Quotes “The characteristics of being a good human, I think, attract other good humans. If you're a piece of crap, you're going to be surrounded by other pieces of crap.” “Everything about you changes the moment you become a parent. I would burn an entire civilization to the ground to protect that little bag of blood right there. That's mine.” “People started solving for the wrong problem—thinking ultimate freedom comes from doing whatever you want. But real happiness comes from the relationships we build and the people we serve.” Connect with Tim Kennedy: Instagram: @timkennedymm This is just a sneak preview of the episode!
