In this milestone 99th episode of Trail Society, we go all-in on Keely Henninger's third-place finish at the Canyons 100K, earning her a coveted Golden Ticket to Western States. Keely walks us through her decision to return to Western States, how she managed training on reduced mileage while in med school, and the strategies she used to stay consistent under immense pressure. We dig into the physiology, planning, and mindset shifts that made this comeback possible—including how stepping away from sponsorship has reshaped her relationship with competition. Listeners will get detailed answers to real questions from the trail community: what does tapering for a 100K really look like? How do you fuel during a freezing wet race? Can long hours on your feet at work substitute for running volume? Keely shares what went right, what she learned from what didn't, and how she's preparing to level up for Western States. Plus, we cover gear (including the story behind those glasses), race-week nutrition tweaks, and how elite women are balancing ambition with authenticity in sport. If you're navigating time constraints, training stress, or racing with less-than-ideal prep—this conversation offers both practical takeaways and serious inspiration.

Just 5 years ago, Oklahoma State University and the Cherokee Nation launched a first-of-its-kind medical school.  The College of Osteopathic Medicine at the Cherokee Nation is the first and only medical college to be founded on tribal land and linked to a native tribe. The school made history when its first graduating class of doctors received their degrees in May 2024.  Drs. Natasha Bray and Douglas Nolan are the Dean and Associate Dean of the school. They join us from Tahlequah, Oklahoma, where they are helping a new generation of doctors learn to provide critical care — especially in rural and tribal areas, which are facing a dire shortage of doctors.  During the show you'll also hear from Megan Tramel. She's a citizen of the Cherokee Nation and a student at the College of Osteopathic Medicine in Tahlequah. This month, in May 2025, she'll receive her degree and start the next phase of her journey as a doctor.  We invite you to share your feedback about this show with us on social media.

Show Notes: Steven Chao, a US-born second-generation college student, shares his experiences growing up in South Carolina and feeling overwhelmed upon arriving at Harvard in 1988. He found solace in joining the Collegium Musicum, a classical musical singing group at Harvard, which helped him find his footing and connect with people from his class.  From Biochem to Game Design to Consulting Steven majored in biochemistry, which expanded his social circle and helped him find happiness. Steven's parents were both PhDs and pushed him into the MD PhD program. However, he faced challenges in medical school and research, leading to questions about his path and the decision to pursue a career in computer gaming. Steven talks about his experience working in the sound and asset acquisition field at Activision in LA. He initially had a great time there but ultimately decided that it wasn't the long-term solution for him. He returned to his PhD program and he pinned his hopes on becoming a doctor. During the last half of the MD program, Steven realized that he didn't want to be a researcher or go into medicine. He found an opportunity to explore other careers beyond medicine or research through a sub-intern at McKinsey.  The McKinsey Years Steven joined McKinsey full-time in 2001 and worked in the Boston office. The bulk of his work was in the payer and provider space, mainly health insurance and hospital systems. He spent about four and a half years at McKinsey, starting from scratch with no business background, which proved difficult. Steven's PhD focused on biology, not analytical skills, but rather gene genetic rearrangement and plasmids, and he felt lost at the beginning of McKinsey. At the same time, he also participated in the mini MBA program in Austria.  Despite meeting great friends at McKinsey, his work was hit or miss. Steven talks about a few of the McKinsey projects he worked on and how a pharma project with Jeff Elton piqued his interest in returning to biopharma. He later worked with Kim Packard, who was his first and best mentor at McKinsey. Steven was late to promotion and advancement, and in 2004, when his wife became pregnant, he gave up his job and started considering what he would do next. Boutique Consulting, Life Sciences, and Biotech Companies In 2004, Steven joined a small consulting group at an investment bank called Leering Swan, which focused on life sciences and biotech companies. This was a better fit for Steven, who had always wanted to leverage his love for science. He joined the firm and was assigned to a project in Parkinson's disease. The experience was mind-blowing, as he interviewed world experts in this space. He was hooked within a week and found the career to be a good fit for him. The combination of his love for science and medicine, without needing to do research or have a career in clinical practice, was perfect, as he loved learning about different aspects of medicine, and the variety and diversity of the day-to-day work.   Founding ClearView Steven left Leering Swan with two other people in 2008 to co-found ClearView. ClearView was born of the same concept as Leering Swan, but focused on life sciences, biotech, pharma, private equity clients, diagnostics companies, and strategic consulting. Steven's primary hat was recruiting, and he continued to love every second of doing so. ClearView Healthcare Partners is now a well-known, private consulting firm with several 100 employees. The company has a growing presence in London, India, San Francisco, New York, and Boston.  Family Life and a Love of Musicals On the personal side, Steven has a family of four children, three girls and a boy. They also have two in college and two still in high school. The oldest is a sophomore at Harvard. Music has always been a significant part of their family. They have a love for Broadway musical theater, and they have spent a lot of time attending performances. Their youngest son is doing a local production of Hadestown in Wellesley, and their oldest is performing at the Agassi theater in a production of 9-5, the film with Dolly Parton, which has themes of female empowerment.     Timestamps: 04:50: Transition to Medical School and Early Career Challenges  13:14: Joining McKinsey and Early Consulting Experience  23:20: Discovering a Passion for Biopharma Consulting 30:04: Founding ClearView Healthcare Partners  37:27: Personal Life and Family  Featured Non-profit: Hi. This is Steve Chao, class of 1992. The featured nonprofit of this episode of The 92 report is the Merriemack Repertory Theater. My wife and I love live theater. The MRT is a fantastic organization that puts on plays and musicals every year, serving a wide catchment area in and around Lowell, Massachusetts. I was actually introduced to the MRT via a fellow class of 92 Carrie Suzawa, married named Michael. And you can learn more about the work of the MRT through the website, mrt.org.

Quantas vezes já ouviu que devia dormir mais, comer melhor ou fazer exercício? E se lhe disséssemos que um bom estilo de vida não é igual para todos? Neste episódio, o psiquiatra Gustavo Jesus e Rui Maria Pêgo desafiam as ideias feitas sobre saúde física e mental.Entre mitos e verdades científicas, percebemos por que motivo o sono é um autêntico «seguro de vida» para o cérebro - numa altura em que um em cada dez portugueses sofre de perturbações significativas neste domínio. Surpreendentemente, também ficamos a conhecer o poder do nosso «segundo cérebro» e como o microbioma e uma dieta não inflamatória podem influenciar diretamente a nossa saúde mental.Além disso, percebemos que os influencers e especialistas em produtividade que se gabam de dormir apenas 4 horas e fazer várias «power naps» durante o dia estão, afinal, a prejudicar a própria saúde. E, contrariando a ideia do «trabalho como o mau da fita», descobrimos que cerca de 30% das pessoas o consideram essencial para o seu bem-estar.O mais fascinante? A forma como os nossos genes e personalidade se combinam com as circunstâncias socioeconómicas para definir o estilo de vida que realmente funciona para cada um de nós. A verdade é que as rotinas que beneficiam uma pessoa podem ser devastadoras para outra.Numa era em que as redes sociais e os «gurus» do bem-estar nos dizem constantemente como devemos viver através dos seus métodos universais, este episódio oferece uma perspectiva libertadora: não há uma fórmula única para uma vida saudável. E sim, é possível construir relações significativas com quem tem um estilo de vida completamente diferente do nosso.REFERÊNCIAS E LINKS ÚTEISTrabalho:GLASSDOOR, Q3 2015 Employment Confidence Survey (2015, Glassdoor)ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT, Health and Work (2024, OECD)ORGANISATION FOR ECONOMIC CO-OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT, OECD Better Life Index: Portugal (2024, OECD)SALVAGIONI, Denise A.

Come on a ride with Max as he tells his journey from Don Estridge Middle Scholl all the way to Yale Medical School. Max will explain how he graduated College before he graduated High School. He was told he was too young to go to Medical School at the ripe old age of 18. He did not take that as a set back, he figured out how to shift to Brain Research. To make matters worse, he was not selected for his first choice of matching Colleges. This just helped him grow even more as person. Max is the true testament that hard work in and out of the classroom will payoff. If you just keep moving forward, you will find success, or it will find you. Thank you gain for listening, and if you could, like, subscribe, or 5 star, it would be greatly appreciated.

As AI becomes a core part of modern medicine, the way we train future doctors may be due for a serious rethink. Empathy and adaptability, not just chemistry and memorization, could define what makes a good physician in the age of augmented intelligence. With language models becoming standard tools for both patients and providers, skills like prompting, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence may soon matter more than traditional academic benchmarks.

Angela engages in a thought-provoking conversation with Dr. Robert Lufkin, a medical expert and author, about the critical importance of metabolic health and the misconceptions surrounding chronic diseases. They delve into the limitations of traditional Western medicine, emphasising that doctors primarily manage symptoms rather than address root causes. Dr. Lufkin shares his personal journey with chronic diseases and highlights the empowering role of lifestyle choices in achieving true health. Angela and Dr Lufkin also talk about the impact of diet on conditions like type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's disease, the influence of food industry sponsorships on dietary guidelines, and the need for a more investigative approach to patient care KEY TAKEAWAYS Individuals have the agency to take control of their health through lifestyle choices rather than relying solely on medical interventions. Doctors can help manage sickness, but maintaining health is primarily the responsibility of the patient. The approach of Western medicine, which focuses on treating symptoms with pills and surgeries, is often ineffective for chronic diseases like diabetes, obesity, and Alzheimer's. These conditions often begin years before a formal diagnosis, highlighting the need for early intervention and lifestyle changes. The education of healthcare professionals is often influenced by food and pharmaceutical companies, leading to recommendations that may not prioritize patient health. Dietary guidelines may be shaped by conflicts of interest with junk food manufacturers. Improving metabolic health through diet and lifestyle changes can prevent or reverse chronic diseases, including type 2 diabetes and Alzheimer's. A low-carb or ketogenic diet has shown promise in managing these conditions and improving overall health. BEST MOMENTS "Doctors don't make me healthy as a patient. Doctors just make me less sick... Maintaining my health, I'll do that myself." "The problem is, when Western medicine takes the same pills and surgeries... they may work for the symptoms... but in most cases, they don't do anything about the underlying root cause." "The idea is that cholesterol doesn't cause heart attacks... The problem is the damage, not the cholesterol."

Join us as we explore Jahnvi's remarkable journey, where a grandmother's battle with breast cancer lit the flame of his passion at just 14. With candid honesty, Jahnvi shares the realities of navigating premed challenges, underscoring the importance of supportive environments over the pressure to achieve flawless perfection. From his international upbringing to his return to the U.S. for college, Jahnvi's story is a testament to resilience, as he strategically leverages his U.S. citizenship and innate drive to carve a path in the medical field.Discover the resilience behind Jahnvi's MCAT journey—three attempts, each fraught with anxiety and growth. Facing the daunting test reinforced the need for mental fortitude, prompting Jahnvi to pause and recalibrate through work as a medical scribe and focused mental health efforts. He unveils strategies that turned his test anxieties into triumphs, including therapy and breathing workshops. This period of introspection not only empowered Jahnvi to attain a successful MCAT score but also illuminated the value of gap years for gaining real-world insight before plunging into the medical school application marathon.Jahnvi's transition from biomedical engineering to medicine highlights the gritty realities of medical school applications, from exhaustive essay writing to the financial strains of applying broadly. He advises embracing a more strategic approach, advocating for focused applications and better time management. As we chart Jahnvi's acceptance journey, the emotional whirlwind of interviews, and eventual med school offers, we delve into the ongoing battle with impostor syndrome and the strides made in mental health. Jahnvi leaves us with a powerful message: belief in oneself can illuminate the path through the shadows of adversity, guiding aspirants toward their medical dreams.
