In this solo episode, Travis shares hard-won lessons from Paulo Coelho's classic book The Alchemist and connects them to entrepreneurship, parenting, and the journey of building a meaningful life and business. He distills years of publishing over 1,500 podcast episodes, reading 200+ books, and countless hours of listening into a focused breakdown of why the adventure—not the outcome—is what truly matters. On this episode we talk about: What The Alchemist is really about and why it resonates with entrepreneurs The concept of a “personal legend” and how it applies to your goals and dreams Why settling for a “good enough” life keeps you stuck and resentful How to think about risk, comfort, and the closed fist vs. open hand mindset Parenting as preparation: helping your kids face struggle, fear, and their own adventure Top 3 Takeaways If you are not willing to risk what you have for what you want, you will probably never get it. Settling for a “good enough,” dream-adjacent life slowly turns into resentment toward people, opportunities, and the belief that there's not enough out there. The real treasure is who you become on the journey—whether in business or parenting—and your job is to engineer struggle, growth, and adventure, not just comfort. Notable Quotes "If you're not willing to risk what you have to get what you want, then you probably won't get it." "It's not about having the thing. It's about who you become along the way of pursuing the thing." "The adventure is what makes life worth living."

Listen now to the latest episode of JCO Cancer Stories: The Art of Oncology, North Star, by Dr Manuela Spadea. As a pediatric oncologist, Spadea shares a luminous, gut-honest reflection that reminds us that beyond protocols and outcomes, the deepest medicine is presence. TRANSCRIPT Narrator: North Star, by Manuela Spadea, MD  Mikkael Sekeres: Welcome back to JCO's Cancer Stories: The Art of Oncology. This ASCO podcast features intimate narratives and perspectives from authors exploring their experiences in oncology. I am your host, Mikkael Sekeres. I am professor of medicine and Chief of the Division of Hematology at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami. What a pleasure it is to have joining us today Manuela Spadea, an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Turin in Italy and consultant oncologist at the Regina Margherita Children's Hospital in Turin, Italy. We will discuss her Journal of Clinical Oncology article and second place winner in our Narrative Medicine Contest, "North Star." At the time of this recording, our guest has no disclosures. We have agreed to address each other by first names. Manuela, thank you for contributing to the Journal of Clinical Oncology and to our Narrative Medicine Contest, and especially for joining us to discuss your winning article today. Manuela Spadea: Hi Mikkael. Thank you for having me today. It is a pleasure and an honor being invited to speak with you. Mikkael Sekeres: No, the pleasure and honor is mine, I promise. You know, on these podcasts, I often like to ask our guests to tell us something about yourself. Where are you from, and walk us through your career and where you are right now. Manuela Spadea: Sure. I am from Italy. I work in Turin, where I work as a consultant pediatrician, a consultant oncologist, and also as an assistant professor of pediatrics. So my work is divided in these two duties: clinical duties on one hand and on the other hand, research and also teaching activities. I was drawn to choose pediatric oncology because this sits at the intersection of science and humanity, in my opinion, of course. I think that in pediatric oncology, we face different and several challenges, so we need to perform at our best in diagnosis, treatment, and whatever. But also, we are asked to not forget being human and to connect always with our children and their families. So it was basically this intersection, this connection between science, research on one hand, and humanity and heart on the other hand that led me to what I am today. Mikkael Sekeres: It is a fantastic explanation, and it is interesting how you have framed that, that there is an aspect of arts and humanities that you have found in focusing on pediatric hematology oncology. I do think that is more so than what we face in adult oncology. Manuela Spadea: I think that it is kind of different because if you think about our world and you think about a sentence, just putting the words 'child', 'cancer', and 'death' in the same sentence is very hard to think about. An adult is someone that has already had the chance and the gift to grow up. Mikkael Sekeres: Huh. It is an interesting perspective on it. Manuela Spadea: Yeah. A child is someone who is growing up and cancer stays in between his possibility to become an adult or not. Mikkael Sekeres: So the emotional burden right out of the gate of having a child with cancer and the possibility of death and the reaction to the compromise of a full life and the shortening of a full life automatically invokes that extra step of humanity and arts and how we have to approach a medical situation. I had not heard somebody put that into a concise phrase like that before, but you are absolutely right. When did you start writing narrative pieces? Manuela Spadea: I started writing when I was an adolescent, basically. And writing for me was a way to cope with whatever kind of feeling I felt during my life and during what I experienced as a human beforehand. But thereafter, when I became a clinician, writing was a way to cope with difficult shifts or hard nights in which you are asked to make very hard decisions as a clinician. Mikkael Sekeres: Often, either on this podcast or outside of it, doctors will approach me and want to get into writing and write a piece. And I think what many people do not realize is it is entirely possible later in life to start writing and to be very skilled at it. Many of our authors for JCO's Art of Oncology, though, have been writing their entire lives. It is not like they woke up one morning and decided, "Today I am going to write and I am going to write creatively." We have all been working on it for decades. Manuela Spadea: Sure. Mikkael Sekeres: I wonder who are some of your favorite authors or are there writers who have influenced your own writing? Manuela Spadea: I would go with Paulo Coelho and Alda Merini. The reasons are very different because from Paulo Coelho, I learned how to express life as a journey and how to use and exploit, of course, symbolic images to express what we want to tell to our readers. From Alda Merini, I learned that pain and suffering are worthy of being mentioned and they still deserve a place in our writings. And she taught me how to collocate, how to find the right place and the right words to express pain and suffering that are parts of our life, of course, in pediatric oncology, of course, and are worthy being expressed in a manner that can reach our readers and touch them. Mikkael Sekeres: Well, as you have beautifully in your essay, I wonder if you could give us an example of a symbolic image. Manuela Spadea: For example, referring to my essay, "North Star." I chose the North Star because it is a very important image because it recalls to us about being a fixed point in a collapsing world. Basically, it is the world of our children that is collapsing and you are the one who represents this fixed point, this anchor. Mikkael Sekeres: So in your essay, which our entire editorial staff just loved, you write about, and I am going to quote you to you, which is always a little bit awkward, but here I go. You write about "the unbearable beautiful vulnerability of being a North Star for a child with cancer." And you write, "We never call it that, of course, not in rounds, not in protocols, but that is what we become: a fixed point in a collapsing sky. When nothing else makes sense, when numbers fail and outcomes blur, they look to us, not because we promise survival, but because we promise we won't leave." Wow. I mean, that is an incredible collection of sentences. I wonder, in our relationships with our patients, when does that happen? When do we become a North Star? Manuela Spadea: I think that we become a North Star when our patients experience our humanity because they can trust us, not only for our degrees or our experience as clinicians, physicians, researcher, whatsoever. They trust us as a North Star when they feel that we are empathetic with them, when they know that we are feeling what they are experiencing. And so they leave their feelings to us, they share their feelings and they begin to connect with us. Mikkael Sekeres: When does that happen in the timeline of when we meet a patient? Is that something that can happen at our very first meeting where a patient may identify us or a member of our team as their North Star, or is that something that only happens over time as we build trust and build empathy? Manuela Spadea: It is definitely something that happens over time, day by day. Sometimes, but only occasionally, in my opinion, it can happen on the very first days, for example, the days in which we give them the diagnosis. But these are only small occasions because in the majority of cases, in my experience, the trust is built day by day. Mikkael Sekeres: There are also times that doesn't happen, though, right? What are those scenarios like when either patients do not need us to be a North Star or when that deep connection never happens? Manuela Spadea: I think that these are very challenging situations. It can happen when outcomes blur, of course, because sometimes patients are experiencing too much suffering and they cannot share with us because they are not able of sharing with us their feelings. Sometimes it is just because you are not their North Star. Sometimes it is inexplicable, basically. "I do not trust you, not because you are not what I am looking for, but because I do not feel I can trust you. And I do not know how to explain because I cannot trust you." Mikkael Sekeres: It is interesting. It is complicated to develop that relationship where you become a North Star. It sounds like what you are saying is it is a combination of trust, first and foremost, honesty, attentiveness to a patient's needs, and time. Manuela Spadea:Sure. Mikkael Sekeres: In your piece, you write about a couple of patients you have treated, Eva and Cecilia, and you write, "In both Eva's and Cecilia's journeys, I was not the most experienced doctor in the hospital. I wasn't the one who had written the protocol they were enrolled in or published the paper that dramatically shifted their chances. But I was the one who stayed, the one they chose. Incredibly, this is both a gift and a responsibility." There is a lot in those sentences, Manuela. You give patients the agency to identify us as a North Star, not us. Can you talk about that a little bit? Manuela Spadea: I think that there is a word in pediatric oncology that could be used as recurrent. And this word is 'impossible'. Why I chose this word? Because we live impossible diagnosis. Let's be honest. Impossible diagnosis, impossible suffering, impossible losses. When you face the impossible, being a North Star without being burned out by this, it is accepting that you are going to face uncertainty just being present. Because you are not the one that will change the outcome, or you can't be sure that that child will have the chance to survive. So if you give the possibility to face the uncertainty, being sure that whenever it goes, you can just be present for your patient and remember every day to your patient that you are there for them. So basically you win. And on the other hand, you also need to protect yourself because being a North Star is a responsibility, as I wrote. And a responsibility can be overwhelming for the one who is responsible for that child. So in that case, the only thing that can protect you is taking the part of being a North Star with boundaries. So you should also try to maintain your objectivity as a clinician and protect that objectivity that allows you to also serve as a good clinician. Mikkael Sekeres: So I wonder if I could follow up on that a little bit. It is a lot of work to be a North Star, isn't it? I mean, we have to choose our words and our actions so very carefully when we are in a room with a patient and that patient's family. Do you think serving as a North Star contributes to burnout or is it actually the opposite? It keeps our work vibrant and real? Manuela Spadea: Good question. I think that it is both, indeed. I think that burning out comes not by being a North Star, but by being a North Star in isolation, without caring about yourself, without finding a way to cope with your grief, with your sense of fear because we are human, so it is basically we experience these feelings. I mean, if we do not have a way to cope and to protect our feelings, we can absolutely go into burnout. On the other hand, it can be very important thing for our work because it can give our work the possibility to be vibrant and real because we are allowed to take the journey of our patient in a moment in which their journey is very unbearable. This is also not only a responsibility, but also a very important place that we have in their lives. This is very beautiful for me. This is astonishing because we are allowed to enter our patients' lives in a very difficult moment, and we can walk with them. Basically, being present and walking through what cancer journeys reserve for them. Mikkael Sekeres: Well, I think that is a lovely place to end our podcast. What a real pleasure it has been to have Manuela Spadea, who is an assistant professor of pediatrics at the University of Turin, Italy, and consultant oncologist at the Regina Margherita Children's Hospital in Turin, Italy, to discuss her essay, "North Star."

“Il vero viaggio di scoperta non consiste nel cercare nuove terre, ma nell'avere nuovi occhi.”In questo episodio rifletto sul viaggio come cambiamento di prospettiva, non solo geografico ma interiore. Su come, col tempo, lo sguardo che posiamo sulla nostra vita possa diventare più duro, stanco, disilluso… e su come sia comunque sempre possibile rinnovarlo.Partendo da Proust e passando per L'Alchimista di Paulo Coelho parlo di lavoro, motivazione, creatività e quotidianità: di ciò che prima ci faceva bene e oggi ci pesa, e della possibilità di “trovare il nuovo nello stesso”.Un invito a fermarsi, a cambiare filtro, a guardare la propria vita con occhi più gentili. Perché a volte il vero cambiamento non è andarsene, ma imparare a vedere diversamente ciò che è già lì.Alla fine dell'episodio ti lascio tre domande da portare con te nella giornata.Puoi leggere di più sul mio Substack qui

«Un sitio en el Paraíso» es Coelho en su versión más juguetona y menos predicadora: una anécdota irónica que recuerda que, a veces, el camino al cielo pasa por ser engañado por la propia avaricia.

«Un cuento de Navidad» es Coelho reciclando sabiamente una leyenda milenaria para la era de la autoayuda: transforma un relato medieval sobre la devoción pura en un mensaje navideño de autoaceptación divina. No es su texto más original, pero sí uno de los más queridos en círculos católicos populares, perfecto para leer en misa de Gallo o compartir en familia.

«Los tres cedros» es Coelho en su versión más bíblica y menos new age: una parábola antigua pulida para el siglo XXI que, sin grandes pretensiones literarias, logra transmitir la esencia paradójica del mensaje cristiano de Navidad —Dios se hace pequeño para que lo pequeño sea grande— en apenas unas páginas.

«Las cosas nunca son lo que parecen» es Coelho haciendo lo que mejor sabe: tomar una perla de sabiduría antigua, pulirla con sentimentalismo moderno y entregarla envuelta en papel navideño.

En ese sentido, es literatura de confort contemporánea en estado puro.

«A, B, C, D» es el típico cuento navideño de Paulo Coelho: corto, emotivo, moralizante y políticamente inofensivo. Perfecto para leer en voz alta en una cena empresarial o compartir en redes, pero incapaz de soportar un análisisserio sobre la desigualdad real. Funciona porque promete lo que todos, ricos y pobres, deseamos creer en Nochebuena: que la bondad, y solo la bondad, puede cambiarlo todo en un instante.

Who & When It's For For dreamers standing at a crossroads. For anyone sensing a quiet pull toward something more — a new path, a deeper purpose, a life that feels aligned. Listen as you unwind before sleep, when the noise of the day fades and your heart can finally speak.What Makes It Unique Inspired by The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, this session blends cinematic storytelling, hypnotic breathwork, and poetic guidance to help you reconnect with your heart's inner compass. It's not about forcing direction ... it's about remembering that your heart already knows the way.How It Feels to Experience ItLike wandering under a starlit sky where each breath opens the next step of your journey, golden light moves through the body, quieting thought, softening the chest, and awakening a deep sense of trust. The soundscape flows with warm desert winds and spacious harmonics — soothing, sacred, and full of possibility.The Shift It Creates You drift into sleep feeling clear and guided, no longer chasing answers... simply listening. Your body rests; your intuition awakens. You begin to trust that the signs, the timing, and the path ahead are already unfolding exactly as they should.

I veckans avsnitt möter vi programledaren Agneta Sjödin, aktuell med UFO-serien Mindgap på Viaplay. Agneta delar öppet med sig av hur förlorade tv-jobb blev starten på nya kreativa vägar, och hur hon gått från att frukta förändring till att välkomna den som en möjlighet.Hon berättar om sin långa inre resa, som tog fart när hon skulle bli mamma och insåg att hon behövde bryta gamla mönster och stärka sin självkänsla. En avgörande vändpunkt kom under hennes pilgrimsvandring – en upplevelse som öppnade dörren till andlighet, personlig utveckling och betydelsefulla möten, bland annat med Paulo Coelho. Dessa erfarenheter uppmuntrade henne att lyssna inåt och våga gå sin egen väg, något hon fortsatt göra genom podden Så in i själen.Vi pratar också om relationer, anknytningsmönster och hur psykedelisk terapi hjälpt henne att läka, släppa gamla spår och landa i större trygghet. Agneta delar generöst med sig av sina vardagsverktyg: egentid, tacksamhet, mikro-pauser, affirmationer och modet att möta känslor i stället för att fly dem.Detta är ett djupt och inspirerande samtal om förändring, självkännedom och modet att leva i linje med sitt innersta.

Welcome back to The Nikki & Brie Show! In this episode, the twins dive into the sweet details of their Halloween. They recap trick-or-treating chaos—from the annual parental hustle of getting the kids into costumes to next-level neighborhood Halloween setups (popcorn machines, Dodger games, and wine tables?!). Brie shares some thoughtful tips on how to discard old costumes and pumpkins in eco-friendly ways, and reflects on the bittersweet sendoff to her season as Buddy's soccer coach.Nikki opens up about her latest Monday Night RAW match alongside Stephanie Vaquer and the momentum of her WWE comeback. With the Bella Army out in full force and her intensity on the rise (thanks to some coaching from Bryan!), she's more fired up than ever, even if after a in-ring defeat. The twins also share their go-to post-match rituals. Hint: they involve tiger balm, hotel room service, and sometimes wine in the shower. Priorities, of course.Then it's time for “Hold the L”, a hilarious new game where seemingly perfect scenarios take a wild turn and the twins have to decide whether to take the loss or walk away with their pride intact. It's petty, playful, and will make you bust out laughing. Brie drops a quote from Paulo Coelho that might become your new daily mantra, while Nikki has some empowering words for all the baddies. Hit play, and remember, if you're gonna hold the L… make it look good! Call Nikki & Brie at 833-GARCIA2 and leave a voicemail!

Et si l'alchimie n'était pas une légende ancienne, mais un art de vivre ? Dans cet épisode, on explore ce que signifie être une alchimiste — celle ou celui qui transforme le plomb de la vie en or vivant. À travers le prisme du roman mythique L'Alchimiste de Paulo Coelho (https://www.amazon.fr/LAlchimiste-Paulo-Coelho/dp/2253150908), des sagesses afro-diasporiques et des pratiques somatiques contemporaines, on plonge dans la puissance de la transmutation intérieure : comment chaque douleur, chaque ombre, chaque chute devient matière de lumière.

Phil Svitek and Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) unpack Paulo Coelho's Brida, a spiritual coming-of-age novel that blends witchcraft, love, and the search for destiny. We trace Coelho's remarkable journey—from rebellious lyricist and political prisoner to world-renowned author of The Alchemist—and how his fascination with faith, mysticism, and personal legend shaped Brida's twin paths of the Sun (reason, discipline) and Moon (intuition, ritual). We explore the novel's central relationships—Brida, Magus, Wicca, and Lorens—and what they reveal about soulmates, free will, and spiritual growth. Along the way, we discuss memorable quotes, recurring symbols, and whether Brida's ultimate choice reflects courage or denial.Up next in our Bookmarked series:Exile and the Kingdom – Albert Camus (Nov 2025)Violet Thistlewaite Is Not a Villain Anymore – Emily Krempholtz (Dec 2025)Marisa pick (Jan 2026)Marisa pick (Feb 2026)The Lost Bookshop – Evie Woods (Mar 2026)Marisa pick (Apr 2026)How to Solve Your Own Murder – Kristen Perrin (May 2026)

Welcome back to *Makes Sense with Dr. JC Podcast. Where confusion dies and Progress thrives. Today, we're making sense of the climb, the personal legend story of Maddye Trew. This is not a story of just her climb up the charts, but the climb every dreamer faces on the way to building their personal legend story. My two very special guests are Miss Maddye Trew and Jeff McMahon.  Maddye Trew is an up-and-coming country recording artist whose latest single, “Single of the Year,” is quickly climbing the Country Breakout Chart. In this song, Maddye vulnerably shares her struggle with being single, and ironically, it's her singleness that's pushing her toward success on the very charts she's climbing. Born in Memphis, Maddye has already performed on American Idol, appeared on CMT, taken the stage at The Bluebird Café, and opened for Big & Rich. Now she's preparing to release her debut EP, Here Goes Nothin'. Alongside her is her Alchemist, guide, and mentor, Jeff McMahon, a musician and industry veteran who spent 18 years touring with Tim McGraw, performed on six Billboard #1 singles, and was nominated for ACM Musician of the Year. Today, Jeff isn't just playing keys; he's guiding rising talent like Maddye, helping her navigate the unpredictable climb of the music business. I first met them in Chicago, at a personal growth and creative self-mastery event that I am affiliated with. At first glance, when I heard Maddy's beautiful voice and acoustic guitar strumming, alongside McMahon on the keys, I knew I was in for an outstanding musical performance.  But what unfolded for the audience was something unexpected by everyone, including Maddye and Jeff. Let's say that the keys on Jeff's piano were not the only ones we experienced. Their story, coupled with their beautiful sounds and songs, began laying the foundation for an epic journey of personal growth, unlocking life lessons that opened doors to some of the most common struggles we face in this fast-paced, overstimulated world full of confusion and concern.  Together, their story mirrors the timeless journey of the main character, Santiago, in Paulo Coelho's timeless book, The Alchemist, where he is a young seeker guided by a wise mentor on the path to his destiny. It's a story about commitment, perseverance, mentorship, vulnerability, belief in the process, and learning to see magic in the blind spots along the way. This isn't just a story about becoming a country star. It's a story for anyone climbing their own mountain of success, learning to handle criticism with grace, to turn failure into fuel, and to recognize that sometimes, you've already arrived.

This isn't just a book review; it's a toolkit for learning to trust your own instincts and live your deepest purpose—your Personal Legend. We break down the core idea of spiritual duality: how to keep your focus on what matters most ("the oil") while actively enjoying the world's beauty and navigating its challenges. You'll hear the simple, yet unforgettable story of the Wise Man and the two drops of oil.  We also share compelling personal stories, including one about overcoming life-altering paralysis, to demonstrate a crucial truth: unexpected adversity often leads to a better, more fulfilling outcome than you could have ever planned.

Listen to JCO's Art of Oncology article, "A Fight Bigger Than Myeloma” by Dr. Adeel Khan, an Assistant Professor of Medicine and Public Health at UT Southwestern. The article is followed by an interview with Dr. Adeel Khan and host Dr. Mikkael Sekeres. Dr. Khan shares the story of a patient whose multiple myeloma diagnosis and treatment serves as a reminder of the civil liberties progress we've made and that we have more to go. TRANSCRIPT Narrator: A Fighter Bigger Than Myeloma, by Adeel M. Khan, MD, MPH, MS  I met her during the early part of my clinical training in hematology/oncology. She was in her late 70s, dressed in a rust-colored cardigan and a headwrap with patterns that reminded me of Ghanaian kente cloth. Her eyes were sharp, her tone polite but direct. You could tell from the moment she spoke that she had lived a life where she had to advocate—for herself, for her family, for her place in rooms that were not always welcoming.  Her chart said “multiple myeloma, R-ISS II,” but it did not say that she had first come to an emergency room at least a year earlier complaining of back pain and fatigue and had been told it was probably arthritis or old age. It did not mention that she had seen three different doctors before someone ordered the laboratory tests that finally began to work up her anemia and increasingly compromised kidney function. It would take another trio of doctors to eventually order a magnetic resonance imaging whose ghostly lytic lesions led down the path to a bone marrow biopsy and her cancer diagnosis. When I brought this up gently during one of our early appointments, she looked at me and said, “They don't hear pain the same when it comes from someone like me.” As a Black woman from the Deep South, she had grown up learning how to navigate a health care system that did not always believe her. She told me stories about being dismissed, misdiagnosed, and interrupted. She was born into an era of structural violence where she would be ignored at best and mistreated at worst. She carried the weight of those moments, but she also carried strength, and clarity, and the kind of dignity that made people sit up straighter in their leather chairs when she entered the room. She was one of the most quietly revolutionary people I have ever known, having grown up during a time of civil rights activism. She had even taken part in bending Dr King's long arc of the moral universe toward justice and could share story upon story from her glory days. Her myeloma treatments were not easy. Chemotherapy rarely is. She shared that there were days when her body was tired of fighting, when her bones ached, her blood counts dropped, and her neuropathic pain throbbed. In the back of my mind, I thought how tragic it was that her delayed diagnosis added unnecessary complications and whether she too thought of that. She was fully mindful of the issues people with her skin color faced in our American healthcare system and society as a whole and revealed how that motivated her to carry forward. “If I don't take up space here,” she told me once, “then someone else like me won't either.” Over the course of our visits, I came to understand that she did not see her myeloma as the hardest fight of her life. Not by a long shot. Her primary struggle was centered on life in Birmingham in the 1950s where separate but equal was still the law of the land; her mother cleaned houses, her father worked odd jobs, and her own prospects were uncertain. She admired the writings of Richard Wright and Jean Toomer and was not shy in sharing her passions. One day, during a particularly tough visit—her disease had progressed and we were down to limited options—I found myself meandering. We went through the usual workup and discussions: laboratory test results, symptoms, and treatment options. I offered the prospect of clinical trials, but she shook her head gently and said, “I've done my time in experiments—I can't give myself to a system that gave my people so little.” I paused. It was the first hint of what would become a larger conversation—not just about medicine, but about history. She was well aware of the atrocities of the Tuskegee syphilis trials in her home state, the Kligman experiments on incarcerated Black men, and the forced sterilization of women of color. As dependent upon medicine as she was in her old age, it carried a bloody stain of dehumanizing racism that soured her against it. Outwardly, I had little in common with her. As a young South Asian man growing up in times more conscious of racial injustice, I was far removed from these historical crimes. Although I learned of them during my education, I did not internalize their impact on the patients in front of me in clinic. But through her I came to comprehend just how scarring and enduring these events can be and how they can rob someone of trust. And the truth is the health care system had not treated her well. She had personal stories of doctors who did not believe her pain, nurses who assumed she was uneducated,  and being passed over for better options, better care, and better answers. “But I kept showing up,” she said. “Because that's what we do. We show up even when we're not wanted.” Her stories to me were revelations. In her younger years, she had helped organize teachers at her school when they tried to fire a fellow Black teacher who seemingly spoke too loud in a meeting. She had lived through redlining, through the crack epidemic, through watching young Black men vanish into prisons, and still she rose every day and worked as a public school teacher for decades. She worked for a system that largely did not work for her. I came to admire that about her—that in simply living day-to-day life with plain dignity and acute awareness of society's issues, she promoted change by living it. “You want to talk about cancer?” she once said, half laughing. “Try walking into a bank in 1972 with a good credit score and a Black face. That's a disease this country still hasn't cured.” Curiously, she did not say these things with bitterness. Not even anger, really. Just clarity. Like someone who had long ago made peace with the truth, even if it was sharp. In clinic, she challenged my every assumption—about treatment tolerance, about compliance, about who is difficult, and who is “advocating.” And she taught me to look differently at the ways bias lingers in medicine. Not just in data or policies, but in subtle moments: the tone we use when explaining options, the hesitations in our tests and referrals, and the assumptions we may not even realize we are making. And she did not just expect good care—she demanded it. She told me early on, “Don't you treat me like I'm anything other than your mother.” That landed. And in seeing patients before me now, I remind myself to wonder who they were in their past lives, what baggage burdens them, and how it all shapes their perspectives. So from my view, she fought multiple myeloma with everything she had, but from hers, she fought something bigger: an entire system shaped by inequality. And ultimately, she made me better to realize that, not just as a doctor, but as a human being. In my years since knowing her, completing my training, and beginning my practice, I reflect on her grace. I think not just about her life, but what it means to practice medicine in a world that often forgets what patients carry with them into the clinic—generations of weight, of injustice, of strength. Mikkael Sekeres: Welcome back to JCO's Cancer Stories, The Art of Oncology. This ASCO podcast features intimate narratives and perspectives from authors exploring their experiences in oncology. I'm your host, Mikkael Sekeres. I'm Professor of Medicine and Chief of the Division of Hematology at the Sylvester Comprehensive Cancer Center, University of Miami. I am so happy that today we are joined by Adeel Khan, who's Assistant Professor of Medicine and Public Health at UT Southwestern in Dallas to talk about his Journal of Clinical Oncology article, “A Fight Bigger than Myeloma.” Our guest's disclosures will be linked in the transcript. Adeel, thank you so much for contributing to JCO and for joining us to discuss your article. Adeel Khan: Thank you so much for having me. It's a pleasure to be here. Mikkael Sekeres: Adeel, I don't want to be disingenuous to our readers by acting as if we've just met. You and I have known each other for a decade since you were still in your training. I wonder if for our listeners you can tell us a little bit about yourself, where are you from and and walk us through your career so far. Adeel Khan: More than happy to. So, I grew up mostly in Oklahoma, but I've sort of lived around in the Northeast and here in the Southwest where I am currently. I did college at the University of Oklahoma. I did medical school at the University of Michigan. I did residency with good fortune at the Cleveland Clinic where I happened to get to know you and have continued to know you since. I did my fellowship then in hematology oncology at Beth Israel Deaconess in the Harvard system and along the way of all that I did a Masters of Public Health at Harvard and a Masters of Science and Epidemiology at Columbia, and that pinball finally settled here to UT Southwestern here in Dallas which I am very happy to make my second home. Mikkael Sekeres: That's great. I will say just for our listeners you've been a superstar since the moment you were a resident. It's been a real treat for me to get to know you over the years. Adeel Khan: Thank you so much. Mikkael Sekeres: Can you tell us a little bit about your own story as a writer? You're a good writer. We get submissions from some really good writers every single week. It's a real privilege to be an editor for the Art of Oncology section and it's always reinvigorating to me to see how many good writers there are in medicine. How did you start your journey as a writer and how long have you been writing reflective narrative pieces? Adeel Khan: I would say if I went back to let's say high school, you know, people tend to be divided into kind of like the sciency types versus the literary arts types and you're kind of an either/or, you know, you didn't really have as much crossover then. But you know, I actually didn't mind when we had an essay due and I liked writing back then, and when I entered college I did a minor in English because I actually did enjoy that and I just liked the idea of being able to put your thoughts on paper in a way immortalizing them. Adeel Khan: And then as I sort of pursuing medicine more and more, publishing is really- it has all kinds of flavors to it and scientific publishing is obviously what has been emphasized, but you know, there's so many things to talk about within medicine. There's the science and the art of the field, and as I've moved along, I've written different pieces focusing really on patient stories and interactions. And I think my motivation has always been that as I have gotten particularly nowadays increasingly busy, I've had the fortune and misfortune of becoming more and more busy, it's easy to lose the opportunity to really connect with people that makes what we do meaningful. And so in those times when you know, and they can be rare, but when you really get to connect with someone in front of you who you're helping to care for, it's really refreshing and it's rejuvenating and I've tried to keep that with me as long as I can as I've gone through my journey. Mikkael Sekeres: There's a lot of jumping off points from what you just said, Adeel. I wonder if I can start with do you consider yourself an English major who's good at science or do you consider yourself a scientist who's a good writer? Adeel Khan: I think I'm too humble to say either. I think I was really a science major who just happened to like writing and reading and kept that as a part of myself. Mikkael Sekeres: Because I think there are a cadre of doctors who are actually English majors and have learned to turn science into storytelling and that's their entrée into science and medicine. I remember I talked for a while with David Scadden about this. He's a brilliant translational scientist who's based at Mass General who also teaches a writing course to the Harvard undergrads and who was an English major when he was an undergrad at Case Western. We've talked about this, about how there are people, I'll include myself in this, who just think different, who probably have these liberal arts brains and they figured out a way to convert science into a way a liberal arts person can understand it. Adeel Khan: Yeah, I mean narrative medicine has been I think around all along and it has only kind of been recently named as a field, but I mean it very much speaks to that that there's so much more than just G proteins in medicine. Mikkael Sekeres: I'm thrilled to hear that by the way. You mentioned you were an English minor. Are there particular writers who are an influence on you or can you talk about what's the most recent book or article you've read? Adeel Khan: Oh, that is a great question. Paulo Coelho is someone I've liked for a long time, The Alchemist. I really liked it because I read it after I had lived in Egypt. I lived in Egypt between college and med school as a study abroad program, and I had actually been to the Faiyum Oasis where the protagonist in that story ends up. And so it was just a fascinating story to me that I could trace some of the steps that are discussed in the book and it's so much- it's a story about self discovery which at that phase of life that I was in was you know, very much a theme of my own life. And so that's one that definitely stands out in my head. Mikkael Sekeres: Do you think reading pieces outside of medicine makes you a better scientist? Adeel Khan: I think absolutely. I think it makes you a better human being. In some ways I lament that so much of what I do reading now is so much just about what's in the field, what's new in myeloma, what's new in hematology oncology and I sort of miss the escape to reading other things and being able to pursue it. And even broader than just what a novel really offers. I mean, I grew up reading comic books too and I've always loved superheroes and fiction whether it's Star Wars and other things. And really they're just stories and the medium- there might be connotations whether it's a comic book or a or a novel, but they're just different mediums, but the fact that they're just stories is fundamental. I actually think to myself that it's so fascinating that the earliest piece of writing that we've really retained as human beings is we believe, the Epic of Gilgamesh, which is really a story of a superhero when you think about it, you know, and it's it's fiction, it's phantasmic in so many ways. But it speaks to how stories are just vital as people. Mikkael Sekeres: And what is it about graphic novels or my kids now of course call them graphic novels. We're not allowed to call them comic books. Adeel Khan: As they've been renamed, yeah. Mikkael Sekeres: What is it about graphic novels or comic books or the story of a hero that appeals to us in medicine? Adeel Khan: I think it's in some ways a parable of what we're doing. There's something so powerful and fundamental about this idea of good-evil and we can rename it in different ways, but that you're trying to overcome something that's an issue, an obstacle. And when you think about what we do in- particularly in oncology, that's very much what we're trying to do. We're trying to overcome an illness, a disease, to try to help the person in front of us. And it has different aspects to it. It could be someone pursuing something in a lab, it can be treating someone in front of you in clinic, but that simple dichotomy of there's something good about what you're doing because there's something bad in front of you is just the fundamental that runs through it all. Mikkael Sekeres: It's fascinating. I wonder if 30, 40, 50 years ago people would have said, “Oh, it's because the doctor is the hero,” but we don't view ourselves that way anymore. The patient is the hero. I love how you posit this as a good versus evil, the evil of course being cancer and the good everything that our patients do and that we try to to help to do to overcome that. Adeel Khan: For sure. Mikkael Sekeres: You wrote a really great essay about a woman who was a patient of yours. Can you tell me a little bit about what inspired you this time to make this connection and to write about this woman? Adeel Khan: Within the past year or so as I had been just really- the fortune and misfortune of getting busier, I lamented that I just wasn't able to spend as much time with patients in the way that I used to. One of the beauties of medical school and you know, to some degree residency and certainly fellowship is that you just have a little bit more time as a trainee, student and trainee where you can really bond with your patients I think a little bit more. And so in trying to kind of refresh my motivation, I was thinking about just kind of randomly some stories that I've kept in the back of my mind and this patient's story is one that stood out to me as I was recalling things. It was so fascinating to me because she had the disease which I now focus on. And the way that she viewed it and the way that she viewed it as a part of her life was just so different than what I think most people think of. And in that way it was very revitalizing that her focus in her life was part of a broader theme of the way that I think she viewed society. And this was just one piece of her own part of that much, much larger puzzle. Mikkael Sekeres: You really write lovingly about her and about how meaningful her context was in how you cared for her and what her experience was in the medical system. I wonder if I can read a little bit of what you wrote because it really did grab me as well. I'm going to start out by quoting you where you say, “Outwardly, I had little in common with her. As a young South Asian man growing up in times more conscious of racial injustice, I was far removed from these historical crimes. Though I learned of them during my education, I did not internalize their impact on the patients in front of me in clinic. But through her, I came to comprehend just how scarring and enduring these events can be and how they can rob someone of trust.” Wow, there's a lot there. Could you start with what was your perspective as a young South Asian man growing up in Oklahoma and what your view was of racial injustice compared to what her experience was of racial injustice? Adeel Khan: Yeah, I have to admit I don't know that I thought that much of it back then and I think that that's part of what it is. You know, being someone who was South Asian, I'm Pakistani, I have Indian roots, and coming into American history and as we learned about it there's so much about slavery and the theme of slavery unfortunately and and the struggles that enslaved peoples have. And you know, as a relatively recent immigrant, I didn't see myself in that narrative. I didn't see myself in that historical reality. But I knew about it intellectually, you know, I knew about the Tuskegee Syphilis Experiments, you know, I learned about all these things and and you learned about how atrocious so much of it is. But again, not being so directly connected, I did not put myself in that same role as someone to view it so close to myself. I will say it hit a little bit more after 9/11 when you know, I was randomly stopped at airport security a little bit more often in those days and again, I think that speaks to racial injustices, you know, I was certainly profiled looking back then, I've been held by TSA in the past, but even that is very minor compared to what African Americans have dealt with here. And this patient in just kind of sharing her tidbits during our time together, I was not directly asking her so much of this. She was really offering a lot of it to me as we would talk and she would be very generous in sharing parts of her story. And over time I kind of understood the broader narrative of her life. You know, it was clear how much of all that was actually in the forefront of her head. Adeel Khan: And I think she might have been a little bit more unique in the way that she kept it there, but she was hyper vigilant of issues of society and the roots that brought a given society to where it is here. I kind of got to know her, this is during the COVID pandemic and this was after the injustice of what happened to George Floyd and so it was a theme that I think people were talking about more and so I think she felt comfortable in saying really what was quite a bit that was stewing in the back of her head seemingly at all times. Mikkael Sekeres: It's so interesting you talk about what you endured after 9/11 as being, I'm going to quote you now, “minor” compared to what she's been through, but even a minor affront like that can really compromise your trust. You write about her, “As a Black woman from the deep South, she had grown up learning how to navigate a healthcare system that did not always believe her.” Can you expand on that a little bit? How is it that the healthcare system didn't believe her and what can we do going into interactions with patients from different backgrounds where we're incorporating that there's a compromise of trust and we have to make up for that? Adeel Khan: Yeah, and I think you know, it's so unfortunate that so many people have stories like this where, in her case really it was back pain that was her presenting symptom. This is long before she knew me. And she'd had the back pain for quite some time, but being an older woman, she was in her 70s at that time, she was not in phenomenal health for other reasons. It sounds like she was just kind of ignored, told that it was old age, tendon changes, she did not have meaningful imaging for some time. When she finally did after seeing a slew of different providers, that's when it was revealed like there's something more significant here. And then when you kind of piece that a little bit retrospectively and I think she certainly sensed this and I did when I- hindsight's always 20/20, when I looked through things, it's like, well, this probably could have been caught much earlier. It's just that no one really I think listened to what she was speaking to with her pain and the gravity that was actually behind it. And it just speaks to the fact that I think we have to be more thoughtful in what we take away from patients and not to ignore even small comments because they might be revealing of something much bigger behind them. Mikkael Sekeres: You quote her, you have some really great quotes in your essay where you just listen to what she says and transcribe it because what she says is very meaningful. And one of the quotes you provide from her is, “They don't hear pain the same when it comes from someone like me.” Wow. “When it comes from someone like me,” someone like her, how was it that people weren't hearing her description of pain, something that was different that was going on in her body and how can we be more attentive to people when they complain about things like pain? Adeel Khan: It's unfortunate that there's even known data to show how depending upon a patient's melanin content in their skin, how likely they are to get pain medications and what happens to them is different and this is an unfortunate example of that where I think she just wasn't heard properly. And so it wasn't addressed properly and she was not shy about saying that. I mean I think she sensed that. She was very clear in feeling that herself and in wanting to have better care, she was still prevented and hence why she had to go from provider to provider. Mikkael Sekeres: You've lived in a bunch of different places in the country. I mean, following your path, you've been in Oklahoma, you've been in Michigan, Ohio, Massachusetts, and now Texas. Do you think that we as providers have to have different levels of sensitivity depending on where in the country we're practicing and how some of our patients' trust in healthcare may have been compromised in those different parts of the country? Adeel Khan: I think absolutely. I mean this particular patient was from Alabama which has a heavy history that she was again very aware of and for those of us reading history books are also very aware of too. And it's interesting how, while the U.S. is in some ways- has some aspects that are monolithic, but it's very much not so. It's very patchy and people are different, you know, if I take one theme that we're talking about here is obviously racial injustice, but if you take something like obesity, you know, prevalence rates are very different throughout the country and attitudes surrounding it are also very different. And I think we do- ought to be mindful that in treating the patient in front of us, it's not done without context. And so how they view their illness and their situation is going to be different depending upon the state, depending upon the city, depending upon actually even the era that they grew up in. So I would say now, if you took actually a similar patient, but you put her in a very modern context post-year 2000, she's likely to have different feelings of the situation around her than someone who was born in this case in the 1940s. And that just speaks to the fact that circumstances change and we should be recognizing that as providers, even though it's not always easy to. Mikkael Sekeres: Well, it just emphasizes how very important it is to know the history of the place where we practice and how it's affected our patients' perceptions of healthcare and trust and being cared for, particularly now as there's such a movement to whitewash that history and eliminate it from major institutions like the Smithsonian.

They want robots.” “If you're going to embrace AI in the school system, you have to allow and enforce critical thinking.” “Lead by example. That's always been a core belief of mine, that I'm not just going to bark orders at you. Anything that I tell you to do is based on something that I've previously done or have experience with first.” “Don't be a content creator. Be a business owner who creates content.” BOOKS MENTIONED: Buy Back Your Time: Get Unstuck, Reclaim Your Freedom, and Build Your Empire by Dan Martell (https://a.co/d/hgFEgso) The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho (https://a.co/d/4Q9XT6C) AI TOOLS: ChatGPT (https://openai.com/ ) Claude (https://www.anthropic.com/claude ) Grok (https://grok.com/) Copilot (https://copilot.microsoft.com/chats/kyux5V4Rhz2VTzzW7AcRT ) LLaMA (https://www.llama.com/ ) Futurepedia.io (https://www.futurepedia.io/ ) FutureTools.io (https://www.futuretools.io/ ) There's An AI for That (https://theresanaiforthat.com/ ) Product Hunt (http://producthunt.com )  G2 (http://g2.com ) USEFUL RESOURCES: https://austinarmstrong.ai/ https://syllaby.io/ https://aimarketingworld.co/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/austinarmstrong90/ https://www.linkedin.com/company/trysyllaby/ https://www.facebook.com/Owwstin/ https://www.facebook.com/trysyllaby https://x.com/trySyllaby https://www.youtube.com/@syllaby https://www.tiktok.com/@syllaby.ai CONNECT WITH JOHN Website - https://iamjohnhulen.com    LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnhulen Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/johnhulen    Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/johnhulen    X - https://x.com/johnhulen    YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCLX_NchE8lisC4NL2GciIWA    EPISODE CREDITS Intro and Outro music provided by Jeff Scheetz - https://jeffscheetz.com/ 

When you think about building wealth in medicine, do you picture yourself working at one job until retirement? My guest today, Kristin Burton, proves there's a better way. She began her career like many of us, buried in student loan debt and working long hours. After paying off $161,000 in just 16 months, she realized financial freedom was about more than debt elimination. Kristin shares how she shifted her focus from paying bills to building assets, investing aggressively in her twenties, and eventually creating income streams outside of medicine. We talk about the mindset shifts healthcare professionals must make to get ahead, and Kristin also shares how she helps other PAs, NPs, and PharmDs rethink their financial journey, create sustainable wealth, and avoid burnout in medicine. If you're wondering whether it's possible to thrive in your career, grow your wealth, and still have time for family and passions, this episode is for you! “If you can create a gap between your expenses and income and then create some assets with the gap, it's almost inevitable that you're gonna end up building some wealth.” ~ Kristin Burton In This Episode:- Kristin Burton's journey of paying $161k in student debt- What steps did she take toward becoming a millionaire?- Why your income level doesn't matter in building wealth- What Kristin would do differently and her current beliefs- Biggest client "head trash": PSLF myths and the 4% 401k mindset - How do you help healthcare professionals avoid lifestyle inflation?- Kristin's book recommendations - Redefining wealth: from net worth goals to "what is enough?" - How to find out more and join Kristin's community Book Recommendations Mentioned in the Episode: The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho: https://a.co/d/3yayzkg 10x Is Easier Than 2x by Dr. Benjamin Hardy & Dan Sullivan: https://a.co/d/hlbLEbG Who Not How by Dr. Benjamin Hardy & Dan Sullivan: https://a.co/d/2Ol8RjwThe 5 Types of Wealth by Sahil Bloom: https://a.co/d/6SMYeNH Die With Zero by Bill Perkins: https://a.co/d/6ae8TSq Join The Millionaires in Medicine Club!Learn how to clear debt and build wealth as a PA, NP, or PharmD: https://www.millionairesinmedicine.com/community Connect with Kristin Burton: Website: https://www.millionairesinmedicine.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kristin-burton-pac `Resources:➡️ Free community of high-performing physicians: the Physician Wealth Accelerator - https://limitless-md.mn.co/➡️ Check out my programs - https://vikramraya.com/coaching/➡️ Apply to become a Limitless MD -

In episode #83, we are celebrating the 80th birthday of Raul Seixas [1945-1989], and the release of his fourth album, "Novo Aeon", on November 1975. The most popular Brazilian rock artist, Raul's music is characterized by intense guitar riffs, soulful vocals and blend with several music genres, including forró, baião and afrosounds. Novo Aeon is an album signifacantly inspired by Alistair Crowley in its lyrics, with the exploration of themes such as individualism, sexual liberation and freedom.We also explored Raul Seixas' music beyond the album by talking about all four albums written in partnership with bestselling author Paulo Coelho. We talked about all of Raul's chameleon portraits: the hitmaker, the esoteric, the storyteller, the rockstar, the alcoholic, the copycat, the madman, the activist, the human.

Prieteni, suntem bucuroși că Radu Jude, unul dintre cei mai apreciați regizori din România, a poposit în studioul Vorbitorincii.

Hi Mamas, If you've ever found yourself reheating the same cup of coffee for the third time—while RSVP-ing “sure, I'll bake 48 gluten-free, dairy-free, unicorn-shaped cupcakes”… today's episode is for you. We're diving into Paulo Coelho's reminder: “When you say ‘yes' to others, make sure you're not saying ‘no' to yourself.” Because every yes comes with an invoice… paid in sleep, sanity, or that bedtime snuggle you promised your kiddo. This week, I'm handing you a tiny, mighty tool called The Empowered Pause so you can protect your time like your toddler guards the last sprinkle donut. In this pep-talk: ✔️ Why defaulting to yes bankrupts your energy account ✔️ The 3-step Empowered Pause (breathe… scan… ask) that keeps guilt in its lane ✔️ How modeling healthy limits teaches our kids that they don't have to do it all ✔️ Real-life boundary scripts you can swipe (straight from my Boundaries Made Simple freebie) ✔️ The truth about “good moms do everything” … and why that voice needs an exit pass

In today's episode of "Shark Theory," host Baylor Barbee delves into profound life lessons from Paulo Coelho's renowned novel, "The Alchemist." With a metaphor that pits camels against horses, Baylor explores the dangers of pushing oneself to the brink of exhaustion and the importance of recognizing our human limitations. This episode is a wake-up call to reassess the pressures we self-impose and the societal narratives that glamorize relentless endurance. Baylor tackles the often misunderstood concept of strength, urging listeners to move beyond the stoic resilience of a camel and adopt the steady, self-aware approach of a horse. Through his experience in leadership coaching and mental health advocacy, Baylor shares how acknowledging fatigue and seeking help are crucial to personal growth and long-term success. His rich insights are supported by his analogies and real-life examples, like the detrimental effects of rental car treatment on individuals. Key Takeaways: Recognize the detriment of glorifying unyielding endurance; like a camel, this can lead to sudden burnout. True strength lies in understanding your limits and asking for help before reaching exhaustion. Effective leaders identify when their team members are struggling and take proactive steps to offer support. Assess if you are being treated as a replaceable commodity or a valuable asset deserving of care and support. Acknowledge that acknowledging fatigue is not a sign of weakness but a step towards sustainable productivity. Notable Quotes: "Camels are traitorous; they walk thousands of paces and never seem to tire, then suddenly they kneel and die." "We've been taught that it's weak to show that we're tired, that we're struggling, but true strength is asking for help." "If you start to lose your grip, don't you think I want to know that in advance so we can set it down?" "Just because you can do it, doesn't mean you should." "Your thresholds in life are there to help you grow."
