Pediatric hematology-oncology physician and co-founder of Pink Coat, MD Tammie Chang discusses the article "Unhooking from the ego in medicine." Tammie shares her personal journey through depression and clinical burnout, explaining how these challenges forced her to disconnect from a professional identity rooted in ego and achievement. She describes the neurological shift from a left-brain focus on analysis to a right-brain focus on intuition and interconnectedness. By choosing to show up as a loving presence in the exam room, Tammie found that she could complete her work with more joy and less exhaustion. This transformation allowed her to move away from being an automaton of productivity and toward a state of equanimity. Her experience suggests that physicians can find peace even amidst global uncertainty by reclaiming their true selves. True healing begins when we prioritize human connection over the need to always be right. Partner with me on the KevinMD platform.

This program was originally aired in June 2023. Abraham Verghese is a best-selling novelist, and a physician whose focus on healing and empathy stands out in an era when technology often overwhelms the human side of medicine. His novel Cutting for Stone is the story of twin brothers in Ethiopia coming of age on the brink of the country's revolution. That book remained on the NYT Bestsellers List for over two years. His newest novel, The Covenant of Water, tells much of the story of twentieth-century India through a single family. Verghese's nonfiction books are My Own Country: A Doctor's Story and The Tennis Partner. Abraham Verghese is Professor and Vice Chair for the Theory and Practice of Medicine at the School of Medicine at Stanford University.On May 11, 2023, Abraham Verghese came to the Sydney Goldstein Theater in San Francisco to be interviewed on stage by Michael Krasny, host of the Grey Matters podcast and former host of the award-winning KQED program Forum.

03/29/2026The Healthy Matters PodcastS05_E12 - Hyperbaric Medicine - What the Heck is That?With Special Guest: Dr. Thomas Masters Pressure makes a diamond, and as it turns out, higher atmospheric pressure can help our bodies heal, too! Welcome to the world of hyperbaric medicine, where patients climb into a chamber, breathe pure oxygen at higher-than-normal atmospheric pressure, and let their bodies do something remarkable — heal faster than they ever could at sea level. It sounds like science fiction, but it's been around since the 1600s, and today it's FDA-approved for everything from stubborn wounds, to carbon monoxide poisoning, to radiation injuries. But how does it work? Is it safe? And what's it like inside that chamber?!On Episode 12, we'll sit down with emergency medicine physician Dr. Thomas Masters, who will walk us through the basics of hyperbaric medicine, how it works, the conditions it treats, and of course, what it's like to spend time inside the chamber (bring a book...). This is a great chance to learn about a fascinating part of medicine, that most people have never even heard of, from an expert in the field.

America Out Loud PULSE with Dr. Randall Bock – Across the exchange, a shared premise emerges. Medicine requires structure, but it cannot rely on structure alone. It requires expertise, but it must remain open to challenge. It requires evidence, but it must preserve the process that produces it. The task, as Makam presents it, is not to eliminate disagreement but to manage it honestly...
In this episode of Longevity by Design, host Dr. Gil Blander sits down with Dr. Uri Alon, Professor at Weizmann Institute of Science. They explore a systems view of aging that treats longevity as a solvable model, not a grab bag of disconnected theories.Uri explains aging with a simple story: houses make garbage, trucks remove it, and the village has a threshold for how much damage it can handle. In the body, “garbage” can include damaged and senescent cells, “trucks” can include immune cleanup, and “houses” can include long-lived cells and stem cells that drift over time. The model links this balance to death, disease, and steady decline, and it helps predict which interventions actually change it.They also revisit the role of genes. Uri argues that lifespan looks closer to 50% heritable today after correcting for early, non-aging deaths in older datasets. The rest comes from the environment and biological noise, which regular sleep may help reduce.Guest-at-a-Glance

Welcome to In Reality—the podcast about truth, disinformation, and the media with Eric Schurenberg, long-time journalist and media executive, now the founder of the Alliance for Trust in Media.Here is the question of our information-saturated age: Why, when they have access to more information than ever in history, do so many people believe things that are demonstrably untrue? This is not just the gullible, not just “those people”—but also all of us who pride ourselves on thinking clearly. Today's guest has spent his career trying to answer that question. David Robert Grimes earned his PhD as a physicist, but switched over to public health and is now an assistant professor at Trinity College School of Medicine in Dublin Ireland. But it's his parallel career—as a science journalist and author—that brings him to In Reality.His book Good Thinking—published in the UK as The Irrational Ape—is one of the most readable guides at explaining why human reasoning fails us. In 2014 he won the John Maddox Prize for standing up for science in the face of adversity. In Grimes' case, that included death threats and campaigns to have him fired from his university post. He kept writing anyway.In Grimes' view the barrier is the cognitive architecture we all share—the confirmation biases, the motivated reasoning, the deep human need to protect our identity even at the cost of the truth. In this conversation we'll dig into why people believe what they believe, what even the most respected journalism institutions get wrong, what AI means for the information ecosystem—and what we can do about it.Website - free episode transcriptswww.in-reality.fmAlliance for Trust in Mediaalliancefortrust.comProduced by Tom Platts at Sound Sapiensoundsapien.com
This week we sit down and speak with noted non-invasive imaging expert Dr. Kelly Han of U. Utah about a recent work she co-authored on recommendations for the development of a congenital heart CCT program. What are the absolute essentials when considering offering these services in a center? How do different scanners differ from one another and how important is it to have single vs. dual source CT? Can good work be performed on 'older' machines? Who are the most important team members for a congenital CT team? Dr. Han shares her thoughts as well as the ideas of many of the thought leaders who co-authored this important statement paper. DOI: 10.1016/j.jcct.2025.01.003

Nutritionist Leyla Muedin discusses nutrition and menopause, defining menopause as 12 months without a period and noting it can occur naturally or due to surgery/medical procedures. She links declining estrogen to increased cardiometabolic risk, endothelial dysfunction, vascular aging, musculoskeletal pain, and higher risks with early menopause (including cardiovascular disease, chronic kidney disease, and dementia), and notes many estrogen-modulated conditions are associated with gut dysbiosis. She emphasizes lifestyle—especially nutrition—as key, highlighting anti-inflammatory, minimally processed eating and warning against ultra-processed foods, refined carbs, and excess omega-6. She cites research that high adherence to a Mediterranean diet improves markers like heart rate, lipids, triglycerides, CRP, and overall cardiometabolic risk, and mentions omega-3s lowering triglycerides while modestly raising HDL and LDL. She reviews diet approaches for hot flashes, suggests reducing caffeine, alcohol, sugar, and carbs, notes some women require (bioidentical) HRT, and describes clients improving symptoms with dietary change.
We're almost a month into autumn and there's a definite nip in the air which means that flu season - and the flu shot - isn't far away. Maybe you'll also be thinking about whether or not to get a COVID booster. But imagine if there was one vaccine that could protect you against both of those - and more. Well a recently published American study suggests that a universal vaccine may very well be possible. Dr Bali Pulendran is a Professor at Standford University's School of Medicine, Director of its Institute for Immunology, Transplantation and Infection and senior author of the study. He talks to Susie Ferguson about what this could mean in the face of another global pandemic.
Send us Fan MailHealthcare creates a paradox: we collect endless clinical data, publish important research, and still watch patients wait years for proven ideas to become routine care. We sit down with Donna Murray, PhD, to explain how Learning Health Networks (LHNs) are designed to fix that by connecting patients, families, clinicians, and researchers into a shared system that learns quickly and improves care faster.We walk through what an LHN is, why the Institute of Medicine's vision of a learning health system matters, and how networks scale the concept across multiple organizations. Donna breaks down the core problem LHNs tackle: silos. Clinicians are on the ground delivering care, researchers are producing findings, and the bridge between them is often weak. The result is slow translation, uneven implementation, and missed opportunities to focus on the barriers patients and families say are most urgent.From there, we get practical. We talk about “data in once” and why returning insights back to providers in near real time changes clinical decision making. When outcomes can be aggregated across sites, the network can identify which interventions work best for specific subpopulations, learn from high-performing clinics, and spot patients who are not improving even when guidelines are followed. We also connect the dots to audiology and hearing care, where evidence-based practice has to compete with pseudoscience and rapid-fire health claims online.If you care about real-world evidence, quality improvement, faster adoption of best practices, and patient-centered healthcare innovation, this conversation will give you a clear framework and a hopeful path forward.

With a mix of pure motivational messaging and practical action you can start taking to deal with adversity, this week's episode of the Faculty Factory is a celebration of tenacity in the face of a tough time. We also feature some very important clips and snippets surrounding post-traumatic growth in this best of the Faculty Factory "greatest hits" episode. This "Best of the Faculty Factory" compilation episode features clips from three masterful episodes in the Faculty Factory archive. (If you're interested in hearing the full conversations, you can find the original episodes below.) Appearing in order are the episodes that were clipped for this podcast: What I Learned from the “Masters of Adversity” with George S. Everly, Jr., PhD, FACLP, FAPA: https://facultyfactory.org/masters-of-adversity/ New Roles, Change, and Post-Traumatic Growth with Wendy Ward, PhD, ABPP, FAPA, FNAP : https://facultyfactory.org/wendy-ward/ Vulnerability and Post-Traumatic Growth to Help Find Meaning in Medicine with Nicole Piemonte, PhD: https://facultyfactory.org/nicole-piemonte/ Although a lot of the conversation is shaped by a time of COVID (many of these interviews took place as we were still in the throes of the global pandemic, or emerging from it), there are gems of wisdom and storytelling throughout this broadcast that can help anyone looking to emerge from a challenging time. As Dr. Ward mentions, there are reasons to be hopeful, based on the post-traumatic growth literature, for many of us to emerge from a traumatic event as "better than baseline."
Historically Black Colleges and Universities are powerful American institutions. Cheryl Mango and Lisa Winn Bryan explore the culture, currency, and legacy of HBCUs.

Margaret Cox explores how writers like Percival Everett and Elizabeth Nunez reclaim and reshape these stories from the margins.
For more than a century, the Gulf seafood industry has shaped towns, cultures, and identities along the coast. Yet, if you talk to almost anyone who works on the water, they'll tell you the Gulf seafood story has changed more in the last 30 years than the hundred years before that. If you care about what's on your plate, what happens to this coast, or what kind of future we're leaving to the next generation of fishers and eaters, you're in the right place.Today, Sea Change travels to the Walter Anderson Museum of Art in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, for a lively live panel discussion about seafood. Host Carlyle Calhoun is joined by journalist Boyce Upholt, fisherman Ryan Bradley, chef Alex Perry, and off-bottom oyster farmer Matthew Mayfield to talk about the future of this rapidly changing industry. ---Sea Change is a WWNO and WRKF production.

Dr. Abid Hussain is a triple board-certified cardiologist in cardiology, internal medicine, and functional medicine. After years in the traditional hospital system in New Jersey, he walked away to focus on what actually prevents disease — and now practices at the Boulder Longevity Institute, combining conventional medicine with peptides, HRT, and longevity protocols.This is one of the most important conversations we've had on the podcast. If you're using hormones, peptides, or GLPs — or you're thinking about it — you need to hear what a real cardiologist has to say about all of it.In this episode, Hunter and Dr. Abid cover why cholesterol alone is a terrible predictor of heart disease, what APOB and particle size actually tell you, and why the AI-powered cardiac imaging most people have never heard of is the real state of the art. They break down the testosterone and heart disease myth — fully debunked — along with hematocrit, blood clots, and what's actually dangerous on TRT. They cover the Women's Health Initiative, why bioidentical and synthetic hormones are not the same thing, and what women of any age need to know about HRT.Then the conversation shifts to peptides — how BPC-157, TB-500, and Thymosin Alpha-1 benefit the cardiovascular system, what the SELECT trial proved about GLPs and heart health, why synthetic growth hormone and secretagogues are completely different, and how to think about cancer risk before starting GH protocols. They close with SS-31, Humanin, MOTS-C, and why the order you use mitochondrial peptides in actually matters — plus a deep dive into SGLT2 inhibitors, the most underrated longevity drug almost nobody in this space is talking about.Episode 3 of The Hunter Williams Podcast.https://hunterwilliamshealth.com/Podcast───────────────────────────CONNECT WITH DR.

In this episode, Matty sits down with Rob Herbert from R&N Blades for a conversation that goes well beyond knives. Rob shares his background growing up on a farm where hunting and using tools was simply part of everyday life — from trapping rabbits to learning how to keep a knife sharp from his grandfather. That early exposure eventually led him into knife making, but also into careers in the military, Victoria Police, and later the Game Management Authority. As the conversation unfolds, Rob opens up about the impact of trauma from his time in policing, and how making knives, along with time spent hunting, became a way to manage that mental load. There's a strong theme throughout the episode around hunting as more than just a pursuit… For many people it becomes a form of reset, a place to think clearly, and a way to reconnect with something real. The discussion also moves into the current state of hunting in Australia, including challenges around legislation, representation, and the need for a more unified voice across the broader outdoor community. Rob shares a grounded perspective on how hunters are perceived, the importance of presenting the right image, and why education matters more than emotion when it comes to protecting the future of hunting. There's also plenty of practical insight from Rob's own hunting journey, from traditional bows through to compound and rifle, and how changing tools can expose weaknesses and ultimately make you a better hunter. This is a wide-ranging, honest conversation about hunting, mental health, community, and the role it all plays in people's lives.

I just got back from the most beautiful weekend workshop called Celtic Medicine Storytelling, and I have to tell you, I didn't fully know what I was walking into when I signed up. What I walked away with has been sitting with me ever since. The whole purpose of the course was to honor the oral tradition of storytelling and to explore it through a Celtic lens, because the Irish, the Welsh, the English, they have always loved a good story. And honestly, who doesn't? There is something so timeless and so human about gathering together and sharing a story. What really struck me was how the instructors used folktales that we all grew up with, like the Tortoise and the Hare, or the Ugly Duckling, or Red Riding Hood as examples of how stories can actually serve as medicine for the soul. We all know these stories, maybe just vaguely, tucked somewhere in the back of our memory. But when you stop and really think about them, those morals run deep. Slow and steady wins the race. Never judge based on appearance. Stay true to yourself. These weren't just bedtime stories. They were quietly shaping the way we see the world, the way we treat others, and honestly, the way we treat ourselves. This got me thinking about the stories we carry with us, the ones that made an impression on us as kids and the ones we now have the opportunity to pass on. Whether you're a parent or a grandparent, an aunt or uncle or maybe just someone who has a young person in your life that you love and want to influence, give the gift of sharing these stories. In helping that next generation feel connected to something so much bigger than themselves. On today's Wise Walk, we're going to slow down and explore how the stories we tell can truly become medicine for our lives. When you reflect back on your childhood, what were some of the folktales or stories that really impacted you? What ones stuck with you, and what ones do you want to share with the younger generation in your life? How did those stories influence you, and how do they make an impression on you now as you reflect back? What are the ways you are continuing to honor this oral tradition of storytelling, maybe sharing stories from your own life in a folk style way so that others feel the moral is relatable and tangible? How are you using stories in your life to support you? How are you taking a folktale you heard and relating to the moral of that story, applying it in your life, or giving yourself some grace because you connect with it on some level? Where can you stop judging yourself for being different or unique, and how can you give yourself the patience and the grace and the space to become the hero in your own story? Over the next several days, can you listen to whatever stories come your way with this perspective of how you can feed the story that someone is sharing, noticing what resonates and how you relate? Can you also feed yourself with that awareness in a way that supports your own growth, your own ability to be kind to yourself, and to just be at peace with whatever surfaces? When was the last time you told a story about how you struggled, what you gained, and how you got to the other side? Whatever is going on in your life right now, how can you hone the craft of your oral storytelling and share your stories with vulnerability, carving out the essential details so your listener stays engaged? How can you speak from your heart, allow awareness to surface, and then welcome the listener to feed the story back to you? What are the stories you want to continue to share because they are so resonant that you could apply them at various phases of your life and give yourself the grace and acceptance that you deserve? Stories are medicine. That is truly the gift I took away from this experience, and I hope it feels just as resonant for you wherever you are and however your day is unfolding. I want you to know that you are medicine for me too. When you share your feedback, when you share what surfaced for you after an episode, you are feeding this story that we are all building together. I would love to hear what you took away from today and what is coming up for you in your own life. Until next Thursday, I look forward to our next Wise Walk together. In this episode: [03:48] I've always been athletic, but I haven't always been the fastest. I really connected with the story of the tortoise and the hare. [05:15] Accepting that I'm not always the fastest one has given me peace. [07:17] At the Celtic Medicine Storytelling workshop, they would tell Celtic stories and then ask us to share how we related to the stories. Feeding the story. [08:18] I love how when we hear stories during different phases of our lives, we relate on different levels. [09:00] We're constantly trying to engage with others. [11:19] I also had an opportunity to share a personal story in a folk style way. There was a moral and contrast or climax. [13:34] We were also to honor the tradition of oral story telling. The oral tradition is more freeing with our speech and rhythm. [16:03] After I published my book, Heart Value, there were several who reached out to me and said they could completely relate to the stories. [18:23] I also appreciated the opportunity to be vulnerable and stretch outside of my comfort zone. [19:30] I named my character, Brigid and incorporated the use of my drum. [20:17] We are all looking for connection and relatability but may identify differently with the characters. [21:04] One of the participants said my story was medicine for her. This was powerful for me and something I hold dear in my heart. [22:41] How can we get back to the oral tradition and relating to stories? [24:21] I didn't know what I was getting into, but the idea of a story as medicine was a gift. Memorable Quotes: "Stories are medicine.

Last week, I hit a wall. I was deeply tired, burned out, and seriously questioning the right next steps. Then life started guiding me in soft, practical, and supportive ways. In this episode of the Luminary Life Podcast, I share a deeply personal reflection on: - reaching for support when I felt bound and weighed down - a powerful encounter with a young owl and the message it carried - a spring walk to a waterfall and meaningful nature time - what it means to release old emotional weight, trust what you see, and cultivate the courage to be seen I also guide you through a simple practice to tune into your body and listen closely as you explore the phrase: 'I have the courage to be seen.' This episode is for anyone standing at an edge — tired, uncertain, and yet sensing that it is time to stop hiding and begin standing more clearly in their wisdom, work, and voice. If this episode speaks to you: I'd love to hear what resonated. You're welcome to share in the comments what the phrase “I have the courage to be seen” stirred in you.

For nearly two decades, HRT carried a shadow. After the early interpretation of the Women's Health Initiative study in the 1990s, the message across medicine was clear: hormones were dangerous.Millions of women were left in a “hormone desert,” navigating menopause with little more than advice to just grin and bear it.But recently, the initiative was reassessed, and the data tells a far more nuanced story. HRT may play an important role in improving symptoms and supporting cognitive and mental health during midlife. The problem is: the mindset around HRT may now be swinging just as dramatically in the opposite direction.Scroll through social media, and you might believe every woman should be on HRT. Brain fog, mood swings, poor sleep, weight changes, and hormones are increasingly framed as the universal solution.But menopause isn't a single experience, and hormone therapy isn't a single intervention. Some women benefit enormously from it, while others may not need it at all.So how should women and their physicians approach hormone therapy? What do we know about HRT and its effects on mental health?In this episode, I'm joined by the physician president of Obstetrics and Gynecology Associates and menopause-society certified practitioner, Dr. Krista Olsen.We explore how the medical understanding of HRT has evolved and what the evidence actually says about mood, cognition, and mental health during menopause.Things You'll Learn In This Episode From common treatment to medical tabooThe Women's Health Initiative reshaped women's medicine almost overnight. How did its interpretation leave an entire generation of women navigating menopause without support?HRT isn't a one-size-fits-all solutionHormone therapy is increasingly being framed as a universal solution for midlife women. When everyone is told they should be on HRT, what important clinical questions risk getting overlooked?Hormone depletion vs. hormone fluctuationMany of the most disruptive symptoms of perimenopause come from dramatic hormonal swings, not simply low estrogen. How does that distinction change how clinicians approach treatment?Symptom-based care matters more than hormone levelsIn an era of hormone testing kits and online wellness protocols, many women are being told to “optimize” their hormones. But what happens when treatment focuses on numbers instead of lived experience?About the GuestDr. Krista Olsen is the Physician President for Obstetrics and Gynecology Associates and a Board Member of i-Health.

In this episode, we welcome Kirollos Hanna, PharmD, BCPS, BCOP, a recognized leader in oncology pharmacy practice and research. Dr. Hanna shares insights into the evolving landscape of antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) and the unique challenges they present in managing chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV). As ADC use expands, oncology teams are observing new and sometimes underrecognized patterns of nausea and vomiting, particularly with HER2-directed therapies and delayed-phase symptoms that extend beyond the traditional monitoring window. This discussion highlights how these patterns differ from conventional chemotherapy and what that means for clinical practice. Dr. Hanna also reviews emerging pharmacokinetic data and clinical trial evidence supporting the use of NK1 receptor antagonist–based antiemetic strategies. The conversation emphasizes practical, actionable approaches for optimizing supportive care, improving patient quality of life, and ensuring proactive symptom management within the medically integrated oncology team. Learning Objectives: Describe emerging patterns of chemotherapy-induced nausea and vomiting (CINV) associated with antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs), with emphasis on HER2-directed ADCs and delayed-phase nausea beyond day 5 Discuss pharmacokinetic and clinical trial evidence on NK1 receptor antagonist–based antiemetic strategies when optimizing CINV prevention for patients receiving ADC therapy.
