In today's episode - the finale of Season 5 - I am in conversation with luminary and renowned New York based gynecologist , Dr. Molly McBride.She shares how amazing it is to pivot later in life, how she enjoys being 60, and we talk about menopause - how it was for herself (tough) and how she helps women to manage this often complex time in life (peri-menopause, menopause, post-menopause).Dr. McBride is a passionate advocate for women's health and openly says, that she is disappointed in many of her colleagues, who simply still avoid to gain deeper knowledge about menopause and it's possible health consequences for women - from brain fog to osteoporosis, from "not feeling myself" to cardio-vascular diseases.Dr. McBride offers cutting edge services - and stresses the importance of listening to her patients, and validating their often still dismissed symptoms. She is a strong proponent of HRT - where applicable.She just relocated her practice to the Flat Iron district in Manhattan. And - being usually a step ahead, now also offers individual health plans for men.Enjoy this lively and informative episode.

Anlass für diese Folge ist eine Nachricht von Petra, die kürzlich eine 15-jährige Katze adoptiert hat. Sie möchte ihrer Katze die Eingewöhnung erleichtern, doch ein Tierarztbesuch verlief alles andere als ideal und sie fragte sich: wird meine Katze mir je vertrauen können? Ich teile heute mit dir, was mir damals mit meiner Katze Peanut geholfen hat und was ich aus dieser Zeit für immer mitgenommen habe. Du bekommst nicht nur Einblicke in meine persönliche Geschichte mit Peanut, sondern auch Tipps, wie du einer neuen Katze hilfst, wirklich anzukommen und was du tun kannst, wenn der Start alles andere als reibungslos läuft. Heute erfährst du… • warum Vertrauen keine Frage der Zeit ist und was wirklich hilft • welche Gedankenmuster dich unbewusst von deiner Katze distanzieren können • wie Peanut vom „Härtefall“ zur coolen Nudel wurde • wieso Training, Schmerzfreiheit und Nahrungsergänzung so eine große Rolle spielen • was du tun kannst, wenn ein Tierarztbesuch alles durcheinanderwirbelt • weshalb eine bewusste Entscheidung für das Tier der eigentliche Wendepunkt ist Wenn du, wie Petra, eine Frage hast, dann findest du meine Kontaktdaten in den Shownotes. Bei umfangreicheren Antworten, nehme ich deine Frage gerne als Podcast-Folge auf. ** Mehr von mir: ** [Mein Instagram Kanal ](https://www.instagram.com/clicker.cat/) [Meine Webseite](https://clickercat.ch/) Du bist noch ganz neu beim Clickern?

In Becoming Gods: Medical Training in Mexican Hospitals (Rutgers University Press, 2021), Vania Smith-Oka follows a cohort of interns throughout their year of medical training in hospitals to understand how medical students become medical doctors. She ethnographically tracks their engagements with one another, interactions with patients, experiences with doctors, and presentations of cases to show how medical students undergo a nuanced process of accumulating knowledge and practical experience in shaping their medical selves. Smith-Oka illuminates the gendered aspects of this process, whereby the medical interns' gender informs the kind of treatment they receive from other doctors and the kinds of possibilities they imagine for their careers and areas of medical practice. She documents the lives of the interns during which time they develop their medical selves and come to understand the tacit values of medical practice. The book is full of descriptive vignettes and ethnographic details that make it accessible to undergraduate students. It would be of interest to those in medical anthropology, hospital ethnography, medical education as well as people interested in how expertise is acquired and developed. The book examines medical interns' transformations through ordinary and extraordinary moments, through active and passive learning where they not only acquire new knowledge but also new ways of being. Vania Smith-Oka is an associate professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Notre Dame in Indiana. She is the Director of the Health, Humanities, and Society Program at the John J. Reilly Center. Reighan Gillam is an assistant professor in the Department of Anthropology at the University of Southern California. Learn more about your ad choices.

Summary This episode of the Boss podcast features Dr. Jennifer Whittington sharing her experience with toxic work environments and how she navigated leaving such situations. The host, Dr. Amy Vertries, introduces the podcast as focusing on lessons not taught in residency for surgeons. Dr. Whittington discusses her first job search after residency, where she was geographically limited due to custody arrangements for her daughter. She admits she made a critical mistake by not hiring a contract lawyer to review her employment agreement, which later proved to be problematic. She emphasizes the importance of having legal counsel review contracts, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. Dr. Whittington highlights several red flags she missed during her job search, particularly being prevented from speaking with the previous person who held the position. She advises that if an employer discourages contact with previous employees, it's a significant warning sign. She also stresses the importance of getting specific details in writing, such as call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and research time. The conversation then shifts to Dr. Whittington's experience leaving her toxic job. She explains how she carefully planned her exit, ensuring she had credentials at another hospital before resigning, as she anticipated retaliation. She maintained professionalism throughout the difficult two-month notice period, despite facing verbal abuse and humiliation. She shares how staff members showed their support by organizing a farewell party for her despite management's disapproval. Dr. Whittington then discusses her second job, which was a positive experience. She only left this position to care for her sister who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She explains how she took trauma call to pay off her substantial legal fees ($320,000) from her divorce and custody battle, which ultimately made her a better surgeon while helping her become debt-free. Throughout her journey, Dr. Whittington emphasizes the importance of building a support network or "village." When her initial support system fell apart during her divorce, she rebuilt it with colleagues, friends, and community members. She shares emotional stories of friends who supported her during financial hardship, including a friend who traveled to visit her and treated her to simple pleasures like pedicures and ice cream when she couldn't afford groceries. Dr. Whittington concludes by discussing her current position at a hospital where she provides care to underserved populations. She expresses her passion for ensuring that patients at safety-net hospitals receive the same standard of care as those at private hospitals. She also mentions her commitment to mentoring medical students, residents, and PhD students, showing them that they can have successful careers despite personal challenges. The episode ends with Dr. Whittington advocating for subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level, noting that the stress of arranging and paying for childcare can prevent surgeons from focusing on becoming the best they can be professionally. Chapters Introduction to the Boss Podcast and Topic of Toxic Jobs ‎ 00:00:00 Dr. Amy Vertries introduces the podcast, explaining that it focuses on lessons not taught in residency for surgeons. She mentions that two of their most downloaded episodes deal with leaving toxic jobs, and introduces Dr. Jennifer Whittington who will share her experience with toxic work environments and how she navigated leaving such situations. Dr. Whittington's First Job Search and Contract Mistakes ‎ 00:01:13 Dr. Whittington discusses her first job search after residency, explaining she was geographically limited due to custody arrangements for her daughter. She admits she made a critical mistake by not hiring a contract lawyer to review her employment agreement, which later proved to be problematic. A lawyer who reviewed it years later told her "no one reasonable would have allowed you to sign this." She emphasizes the importance of having legal counsel review contracts, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. Red Flags in Job Interviews and Importance of Due Diligence ‎ 00:02:36 Dr. Whittington highlights several red flags she missed during her job search, particularly being prevented from speaking with the previous person who held the position. She advises that if an employer discourages contact with previous employees, it's a significant warning sign. She also stresses the importance of getting specific details in writing, such as call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and research time to avoid being "used and abused." Identifying Toxic Workplace Environments ‎ 00:09:22 Dr. Whittington describes signs of a toxic workplace, including lack of respect, being condescended to in front of team members, and feeling uncomfortable with the standard of care provided. She shares her father's advice about being able to "look at yourself in the mirror at night" and feel good about what you did that day, noting that in her toxic job, she couldn't say that about the care being provided. Transitioning Out of a Toxic Job ‎ 00:12:33 Dr. Whittington explains how she carefully planned her exit from her toxic job, ensuring she had credentials at another hospital before resigning, as she anticipated retaliation. She discusses the documentation needed when changing jobs, including licensure verification, risk management documentation, case logs, and letters of recommendation. She emphasizes the importance of having allies who can help navigate this process. Maintaining Professionalism During Resignation ‎ 00:15:21 Dr. Whittington shares how she maintained professionalism during her difficult two-month notice period, despite facing verbal abuse and humiliation. Her mantra was "I am the consummate professional," which helped her not react negatively to poor treatment. She shares how staff members showed their support by organizing a farewell party for her despite management's disapproval. Second Job Experience and Family Emergency ‎ 00:18:03 Dr. Whittington discusses her second job, which was a positive experience. She only left this position to care for her sister who was diagnosed with breast cancer. She explains how the administration was supportive and even held her position as long as possible. She helped interview her replacement and assured them it was a good practice to join. Financial Challenges and Overcoming Debt ‎ 00:24:56 Dr. Whittington reveals how she took trauma call to pay off her substantial legal fees ($320,000) from her divorce and custody battle. This experience not only helped her become debt-free but also made her a better surgeon by improving her efficiency and thoughtfulness. She explains her fear of debt stemming from her lower-middle-class upbringing as a coal miner's daughter. Building a Support Network or "Village" ‎ 00:33:10 Dr. Whittington emphasizes the importance of building a support network or "village." When her initial support system fell apart during her divorce, she rebuilt it with colleagues, friends, and community members. She shares emotional stories of friends who supported her during financial hardship, including a friend who traveled to visit her and treated her to simple pleasures like pedicures and ice cream when she couldn't afford groceries. Current Position and Future Goals ‎ 00:35:26 Dr. Whittington discusses her current position at a hospital where she provides care to underserved populations. She expresses her passion for ensuring that patients at safety-net hospitals receive the same standard of care as those at private hospitals. She also mentions her commitment to mentoring medical students, residents, and PhD students, showing them that they can have successful careers despite personal challenges. Advocacy for Childcare Support in Medical Training ‎ 00:44:10 Dr. Whittington concludes by advocating for subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level. She notes that the stress of arranging and paying for childcare can prevent surgeons from focusing on becoming the best they can be professionally, and expresses her passion for finding ways to address this issue through medical organizations. Action Items Dr. Whittington advised hiring a contract lawyer to review job offers, even if it costs around $500, as it's worth the investment to identify potential issues. ‎ 00:02:52 Dr. Whittington recommended always speaking to the person who previously held the position before accepting a job offer. ‎ 00:04:07 Dr. Whittington suggested going through offer letters point by point with the hiring person, discussing call distribution, reimbursement, block time, and expectations. ‎ 00:03:28 Dr. Whittington advised securing credentials at another hospital before resigning from a toxic job if retaliation is anticipated. ‎ 00:07:14 Dr. Whittington recommended preparing a resignation letter in advance when leaving a difficult workplace situation. ‎ 00:15:36 Dr. Whittington suggested maintaining professionalism when facing verbal abuse or humiliation in the workplace by using a personal mantra like "I am the consummate professional." ‎ 00:16:15 Dr. Whittington advised personally calling patients when transitioning from one practice to another to maintain the relationship and reduce guilt. ‎ 00:21:02 Dr. Whittington advocated for exploring ways to provide subsidized childcare for surgical trainees at a national level through medical organizations. ‎ 00:44:10

This episode of the Intelligent Medicine podcast is a deep dive into the complexities of Lyme disease and other tick-borne illnesses. Nicole Bell, the CEO of Galaxy Diagnostics and author of “What Lurks in the Woods,” details the challenges of diagnosing tick-borne diseases, the limitations of current diagnostic tests, and the controversy around treatment methodologies. Nicole shares her personal journey that led her to this field after her husband was misdiagnosed with early-onset Alzheimer's, which was later revealed to be caused by advanced Lyme disease. They also discuss new diagnostic techniques, the importance of personalized treatment plans, and ongoing advocacy efforts to improve awareness and research funding for Lyme disease.

In this episode, we sit down with Marco from Med-Tac International to talk about one of the most overlooked aspects of preparedness—medical training and carrying the right gear. We dig into why having the knowledge and equipment can mean the difference between life and death in everyday emergencies, from accidents at home to unexpected crises in public. But we also face a hard truth: in tragedies like the murders of Charlie Kirk and Iryna Zarutska, even the best training and gear couldn't have changed the outcome because of the severity of the wounds. These realities underscore both the importance and the limits of medical readiness. Whether you're new to medical training or looking to sharpen your skills, this conversation highlights what gear actually matters, how to build confidence under stress, and why training is the real life-saving edge.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat, where we break down the highs, lows, and real talk of life on the frontlines of medicine. In this episode, Dr. Mark Bonta sits down with Brian Ferguson—a former military special operator and founder of Arena Labs—to explore what it truly means to perform under pressure in today's healthcare landscape.Drawing on his unique experience in both military special operations and high performance coaching, Brian unpacks the surprising similarities between the worlds of medicine and the military: relentless stress, long hours, a drive to serve, and the ever-present risk of burnout. Together, Dr. Bonta and Brian dive into actionable, science-backed strategies for stress management, sleep recovery, and resilience—techniques inspired by elite athletes, fighter pilots, and creative professionals, but tailored to the real challenges healthcare workers face every day.This isn't just a conversation about burnout or self-care. It's about honoring the trust society places in clinicians—and learning how to show up at our best for our patients, our teams, and our own families. Whether you're a seasoned doctor, a new resident, or just someone chasing your own version of peak performance, today's episode is packed with practical wisdom to help you thrive in high-pressure environments.Plug in for a thought-provoking, entertaining, and genuinely useful discussion that just might change the way you approach your work—and your life.Episode Lessons Sleep Is Foundational Performance — Prioritizing sleep is essential for peak performance, decision-making, and longevity—especially in high-stress healthcare environments.Shift Culture, Not Just Schedules — The outdated badge-of-honor mentality around sleep deprivation in healthcare must be replaced with a performance-focused narrative.Embrace Science-backed Recovery — Active recovery—intentional downtime and enjoyable activities—significantly restores energy, resilience, and emotional health for clinicians.Measure What Matters Regularly — Consistent tracking of sleep, stress, and recovery using wearables helps target and improve health and performance outcomes.Performance Tools Are Transferrable — Techniques from elite athletics and military training can greatly benefit healthcare professionals facing similar high-pressure demands.Early Adoption Builds Resilience — Learning and practicing high-performance skills early in medical training equips clinicians to handle future stress more effectively.Community Strengthens Well-being — Strong teams and shared purpose provide essential support, prevent isolation, and buffer against the stresses of clinical practice.Reframe Burnout for Growth — Focusing on human flourishing, not just preventing burnout, fosters a culture of aspiration and ongoing improvement in healthcare.Healthcare Deserves Elite Support — Division 1 athletes have more performance resources than most clinicians; bridging this gap is vital to sustainable healthcare excellence.Episode Timestamps 03:58 – The Alchemist: Lessons for Medical Training 09:20 – Military Fiction's Team-Based Allure 12:23 – Healthcare and Military Similarities 15:24 – Trust and Nuance in Medicine 17:06 – Sleep: The Key to Performance 20:18 – Recovery Beyond Medicine 25:07 – Evolving Healthcare Performance Strategies 29:01 – Science-Based Human Performance Tools 30:36 – Real-Time Solutions to Burnout 33:13 – Clinician-Led Decisions vs. Wellness Trends 38:08 – Decline of Team Spirit in Healthcare 39:14 – Unlocking Personal Performance Tools 44:06 – Redefining Healthcare Performance Norms 47:30 – Fostering Sustainable Peak Performance

Physician Jessie Mahoney discusses her article "Learning to trust your body again: Healing the hidden wounds of medical training," exploring how the culture of medicine conditions physicians to ignore their basic bodily needs in the pursuit of excellence. Jessie explains how this disconnection erodes trust in self, contributes to burnout, and undermines both personal well-being and professional leadership. She shares how rebuilding trust through mindfulness, acceptance, and compassion allows physicians to heal, lead sustainably, and model healthier practices for patients and teams. Listeners will walk away with practical strategies for honoring their bodies, shifting perspective with small changes, and embracing presence over performance.

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this inspiring episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea, a double board-certified family and obesity medicine physician, educator, and passionate advocate for physician wellness. Dr. Cynthia shares her personal journey from academic medicine through the challenges of burnout, her transformative experience with coaching, and how becoming a parent reshaped her professional values and priorities. Together, they dive deep into the realities of trauma and harm in medical training, the persistence of unhealthy work habits into clinical practice, and the importance of redefining our identities as physicians. Dr. Cynthia also discusses practical strategies for establishing boundaries, healing from the pressures of perfectionism and people-pleasing, and making medicine truly sustainable. You'll hear about her current work supporting physicians through coaching, retreats, and advocacy, and discover how small daily changes can lead to a more meaningful, balanced career. If you've ever questioned what it means to thrive in medicine, or wondered how to reclaim your empathy and joy for the profession, this conversation is packed with insightful stories and actionable advice. Tune in for a message of hope, transformation, and the reminder that a sustainable career in medicine is possible. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Medical training often normalizes unhealthy patterns: Dr. Chen-Joea highlights how the culture of self-sacrifice and hierarchy during medical training can introduce trauma, shaping physicians to ignore their own needs. Breaking these cycles is essential for lasting well-being. Redefining your career is possible—and necessary: Whether through coaching, boundary-setting, or exploring new roles, Dr. Chen-Joea emphasizes that medicine can be sustainable. Small, intentional changes—like building in non-negotiable personal time—can have a huge impact. Trauma awareness matters (and it's practical): Understanding your own “activation” responses (like fight, flight, freeze, or fawn) is key. Recognizing these signs allows clinicians to proactively care for themselves and model healthy behaviors for colleagues and patients alike. Meet Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea: Dr. Cynthia Chen-Joea is a physician career and life coach dedicated to helping early-career physicians finding sustainability in medicine by achieving their “career by design” goals while cultivating a healthy work-life balance. She is a double board-certified physician in family and obesity medicine. Dr. Chen-Joea currently serves as a Medical Director of Copa de Oro Medical Group and Inpatient Director at the Charles Drew Family Medicine Residency Program. In addition to her clinical work, Dr. Chen-Joea has held numerous leadership roles, including her past position as Department Chair of Family Medicine, Secretary-Treasurer of the Medical Staff and Physician Advisor at Emanate Health. She is also very active in advocacy on her local, state and national specialty organizations, and currently represents her peers as the New Physician Director on the American Academy of Family Physicians (AAFP) Board of Directors. Dr. Chen-Joea is passionate about advancing physician wellness, advocating at the systemic level, and providing individual coaching support to empower physicians in achieving sustainable careers in medicine. Her interests include inpatient medicine, leadership, advocacy, procedures and women's health. Outside of work, Dr. Chen-Joea enjoys quality time with her two-year-old daughter and her nine-year-old pup, traveling and exploring new cultures with her husband, savoring delicious foods, practicing yoga and Pilates, and indulging in the occasional Netflix reality TV binge.

This episode of Perimenopause: Head to Toe features Dr. Sameena Rahman, an OB-GYN and specialist in sexual medicine and menopause. She is also the founder of the GYN and Sexual Medicine CollectiveDr. Rahman highlights that women in their mid-40s often experience confusing bodily changes. Symptoms include: Menstrual Changes: Unpredictable periods, with some becoming heavier or stopping for months. Physical & Emotional Symptoms: Intimate dryness, reduced libido, sleep issues, hot flashes, brain fog, and irritability.Systemic Issues in Women's HealthcareThe conversation addresses challenges within the medical system. A Patriarchal System: The doctors agree that the healthcare system is historically patriarchal, resulting in a lack of research and understanding of women's health. Medical Training Gap: The doctors note that medical school training often overlooks the significant emotional and cognitive effects of perimenopause, focusing instead on hot flashes and irregular periods. The "Double Whammy": They point out that because the OB-GYN field is largely female, there's an unspoken expectation to manage all aspects of women's health with limited resources, leading to provider burnout and inadequate patient care.Cultural Differences and BiasDr. Rahman, who is South Asian, discusses unique challenges for women of color. Earlier Onset: Women of color, including Black and South Asian women, often experience perimenopause and menopause earlier. This is linked to allostatic load, the cumulative "wear and tear" from chronic stress. Stigma: Cultural factors like stoicism and taboos around sex lead to a reluctance to seek medical help. Health Disparities: The episode notes higher rates of heart disease and diabetes in the South Asian population.About Dr. Rahman's Practice and BookDr. Sameena Rahman is a board-certified OB/GYN, sex-med gynecologist, menopause specialist and a clinical assistant professor of OB/GYN at the Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine. She is the founder of the Gyn & Sexual Medicine Collective, a successful concierge practice that emphasizes evidence-based medicine and an affiliate of Ms. Medicine. Dr. Rahman is dedicated to evaluating and treating each patient with compassion, trauma-informed care, and an awareness of personal bias. Additionally, she hosts the podcast Gyno Girl Presents: Sex, Drugs & Hormones.Her upcoming book, "Brown Girls Disease? A Guide to Sexual Health and Empowerment Through a South Asian Lens," explores sexual health issues from a unique cultural and religious perspective.

Dr. Hoffman continues his conversation with Dr. Ramona Wallace.

For many, integrative medicine has become an unattainable luxury, and healthy diet and lifestyle the prerogative of the privileged. Today's guest, Dr. Ramona Wallace, is attempting to change that. Trained conventionally as a DO, she undertook additional training and certification via the Institute for Functional Medicine to broaden her clinical skills. She practices primary care in an underserved community in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she incorporates diet and lifestyle recommendations to address her patients' chronic conditions. Careful nutritional assessment has revealed that many of her patients, while overtly overweight, are decidedly malnourished. She has documented a wide range of deficiencies—of B vitamins, vitamins A, C, and D, critical minerals like zinc and magnesium, even full-blown scurvy. These are precisely the patients who are most likely to benefit from nutritional support. Discovering obstacles to compliance is a key element to effect their health transformations. Dr. Wallace believes that individualized care is the key to reversing long-standing health conditions. She mentors medical students in the first-of-its-kind Functional Medicine program at a medical school. She has also co-authored a landmark paper arguing for wellness self-care by doctors, to stave off burnout and to help them be better role models for patients.

Welcome back to Ditch the Labcoat with Dr. Mark Bonta! In this episode, we dive into the world of burnout—what it really looks like, how it creeps into even the most resilient among us, and, most importantly, what we can do to prevent it. Dr. Mark sits down with Dr. Judy Wright, a physician, performance strategist, burnout survivor, and the founder of JW Health Consulting. Dr. Wright brings a unique blend of medical expertise and personal experience to the conversation, sharing hard-won insights and practical tools that go beyond the surface-level “self-care” advice.From the silent lessons learned in medical school anatomy labs to the coping strategies (and comical dinner table conversations) that help healthcare workers weather the toughest shifts, Mark and Judy unpack what it really means to build resilience in high-stress environments. But these lessons aren't just for doctors and nurses. Whether you're managing a team, running a classroom, or simply juggling daily life, you'll find actionable advice—from five-minute reset techniques to the importance of building a support network before you desperately need one.Get ready for a candid, insightful, and wide-ranging conversation that will challenge you to rethink your approach to stress, burnout, and what it means to truly look after yourself at work and beyond.Episode HighlightsProactively Build Support Systems – Don't wait for crisis—establish a network of support inside and outside work to safeguard mental health and resilience.Normalize Emotional Boundaries – Healthcare workers are taught to compartmentalize; this is protective but needs healthy awareness to prevent detachment or apathy.Coping Skills Should Be Taught – Resilience and compartmentalization should be addressed directly in training, not just absorbed by osmosis or workplace culture.Talking Helps Heal Trauma – Debriefing difficult experiences with colleagues, friends, or professionals significantly boosts emotional processing and resilience.Early Self-Awareness Is Critical – Recognizing feelings of overwhelm or burnout early on is the best prevention, allowing intervention before serious harm is done.Burnout Is a Slow Erosion – It's not sudden; burnout creeps in gradually. Regular self-checks and honest reflection prevent it from taking root.Self-Care Is Individualized – Effective self-care goes beyond popular trends; it must be meaningful and restorative specifically for you.Small Pauses Make a Difference – Taking even a five-minute break—for breath work, movement, hydration, or reflection—can disrupt stress accumulation.Burnout Affects All Life Areas – Professional burnout inevitably spills into personal life, impacting thinking, relationships, and daily functioning.You Can Reinvent Your Career – There are multiple fulfilling paths beyond traditional clinical roles. If the current job isn't right, change is possible.Episode Timestamps 06:02 – Adapting to Cadaver Work 09:05 – Healthcare Workers' Emotional Challenges 10:03 – Emotional Detachment and Coping Mechanisms 13:16 – Debriefing's Role in Mental Health 17:02 – Early Healthcare Career Challenges 19:44 – Balancing Emotions in Medical Training 25:50 – Work-Life Interconnection Dynamics 29:33 – Importance of Building a Support System 30:18 – Integrating Self-Care with Work 34:30 – Exploring Diverse Medical Careers 39:30 – Prioritize Individualized Self-Care 40:54 – Authentic Self-Care Beyond Mani-Pedis 43:29 – Self-Care for Post-Work Recharge 47:40 – Workplace Energy and Self-Assessment 51:10 – Grounding Techniques for Resilience

Academic physician executive William Wertheim discusses his article, "America, our health care workforce training isn't evolving alongside our needs." He argues that the U.S. medical system is training professionals who will not meet the needs of the country's rapidly aging population. With the number of Americans over 65 expected to reach 82 million by 2050, specialties like geriatrics are in decline, with only 42 percent of fellowship positions filled in 2023. William explains that this problem extends to projected shortages in primary care, oncology, and other specialties, which is especially acute in rural areas where "distance decay" limits access to care. He identifies a critical bottleneck in the training pipeline: while medical school enrollment is high, a lack of corresponding residency positions prevents qualified doctors from entering the workforce. While tools like AI and telehealth can help, they cannot replace the need for a comprehensive strategy to expand training capacity and align medical education with the demographic realities of today and tomorrow.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions In the first of a three-part interview, Dr. Emily Wood, a board-certified psychiatrist and PhD neuroscientist, discusses the complex links between neurodevelopmental conditions such as ADHD and autism, and chronic pain syndromes like fibromyalgia and chronic fatigue syndrome. Dr. Wood, who heads Spectrum Psych LA, sheds light on why these conditions are often overlooked in high-masking individuals and women and explains the sensory processing differences that contribute to chronic pain. The conversation touches on the shortcomings in traditional psychiatric training and the importance of reevaluating medical education to better serve neurodivergent individuals. Dr. Wood also shares insights from her unique training path and discusses the broader implications of misdiagnosis and lack of understanding in the medical community.00:00 Introduction to Dr. Emily Wood and Her Unique Expertise01:11 Exploring Overlooked Neurodevelopmental Conditions in Women01:55 The Intersection of Neurodevelopmental Disorders and Chronic Pain02:52 Dr. Wood's Journey and Insights into Psychiatry06:27 Challenges in Medical Training and Diagnosis15:54 Implications of Misdiagnosis and the Importance of Listening26:11 Concluding Thoughts  International Conference on ADHD in November 2025 where Dr. Lenz will be one of the speakers. Support the showWhen I started this podcast—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind. Office visits are short, but understanding complex, often misunderstood conditions like fibromyalgia takes time. That's why I created this space: to offer education, validation, and hope. If you've been told fibromyalgia “isn't real” or that it's “all in your head,” know this—I see you. I believe you. You're not alone. This podcast aims to affirm your experience and explain the science behind it. Whether you live with fibromyalgia, care for someone who does, or are a healthcare professional looking to better support patients, you'll find trusted, evidence-based insights here, drawn from my 28+ years as an MD. Please remember to talk with your doctor about your symptoms and care. This content doesn't replace personal medical advice.* ...

“Very often, doctors try to suppress what they feel or don't even have the vocabulary to describe their emotions,” says Professor Alicja Galazka of the University of Silesia, an observation based on decades of work with physicians to enhance their emotional intelligence and resilience. Galazka, a psychotherapist, psychologist, lecturer and coach, believes this deficit is rooted in part in a lack of instruction in the internal and external psychological dimensions of being a medical provider. “There is not enough space created in medical school for teaching and training students about how to deal with their own stress and all of the skills connected to building relationships with patients,” she tells host Michael Carrese. Those same skills are also critical to working effectively as a member of a care team, which is an increasingly common arrangement in hospitals and clinics. Galazka employs simulations, dramatic role-playing, mindfulness, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and other methods in her work with an eye on increasing the emotional agility and sensitivity of her trainees and clients. Tune in to this thoughtful episode of Raise the Line to hear Galazka's ideas on how to reshape medical training, why she is a proponent of narrative medicine, and the merits of embedding psychologists on care teams as a resource for both patients and providers. Mentioned in this episode:University of SilesiaInternational Association of Coaching Institutes If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.
