In this Facebook Live episode, Shana shares how she naturally lowered her total cholesterol by 58 points and LDL by 41 points in just 11 weeks—without statins—by addressing insulin resistance and easily adding 7 different fibers with the Feel Great System. You'll learn what causes "high" cholesterol beyond diet, how insulin and inflammation play a bigger role than fat intake, and how strategic nutrients like soluble fibers, phytosterols, and chlorogenic acid improve both lipid and glucose metabolism. What You'll Learn The real root of high cholesterol: insulin resistance and poor metabolic signaling. Why statins don't fix insulin resistance—and what they actually do. How Balance (soluble fiber matrix) supports healthy LDL, satiety, and blood sugar control. Guar gum, beta-glucans, gum arabic, citrus pectin → lower LDL, stabilize glucose, support gut microbiota. Phytosterols → reduce LDL and raise HDL. Chromium → enhances insulin sensitivity, reduces sugar cravings. Niacin → supports HDL and energy metabolism How Unimate (yerba mate extract) enhances GLP-1, focus, and fat metabolism. Chlorogenic acid → reduces LDL/triglycerides, improves insulin sensitivity, and supports mitochondrial energy. Theobromine → improves HDL/LDL ratio, boosts mood and alertness without jitters. Mate saponins and polyphenols → lower visceral fat, protect the liver, and calm inflammation How improving GLP-1 naturally helps you feel full longer, lose weight, and stabilize blood sugar. Simple lifestyle rhythms—light, sleep, meal timing—that magnify your results. Key Takeaways Fixing insulin resistance improves both cholesterol and blood sugar markers. The Feel Great System is listed in the Physician's Desk Reference (PDR) and backed by published studies. You can partner with your clinician to explore reducing or avoiding cholesterol meds as metabolic health improves. Supporting GLP-1 naturally with Feel Great can mimic some benefits of popular medications—without side effects. Products Mentioned

Welcome to another episode of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith is joined by Dr. Archana Shrestha—an emergency physician, certified coach, author, and founder of the Mama Doc School and Physician Wellness Solutions. Together, they dive deep into the journey of physician burnout, particularly from the perspective of emergency medicine. Dr. Shrestha shares her personal story of navigating the double burden of clinical and parental burnout, and how she transformed her approach to wellness by addressing not just physical exhaustion, but also the crucial mental and emotional components. Listeners will hear about practical strategies for reclaiming energy, building emotional resilience, and making time for life outside of medicine. Dr. Shrestha opens up about the challenges women in medicine face, the importance of self-stewardship, and why addressing the dread around tasks like charting can have far-reaching impacts on personal health and quality of life. Whether you're looking to overcome burnout, manage stress eating, or simply feel more fulfilled in your medical career, this episode is packed with insightful advice and real-life inspiration for making clinical practice more sustainable. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Burnout has multiple layers: It isn't just physical exhaustion. Addressing mental and emotional fatigue is just as crucial for true recovery and lasting wellness. Processing emotions is a skill, not a luxury: Dr. Shrestha details a practical method (the “H & P” approach) for health professionals to name, rate, and process difficult emotions—crucial in high-stress environments like the ER. Self-stewardship is essential: True self-care goes beyond the occasional treat; it's about reclaiming basic needs like sleep, movement, healthy food, and time for yourself—so you can give your best at work and at home. Meet Dr. Archana Shrestha: Dr. Archana Shrestha is an emergency physician, certified coach, author, and speaker who is passionate about helping physicians create lasting wellness. She is the founder and Chief Wellness Officer of Mama Docs School and Physician Wellness Solutions, where she leads programs designed to reduce burnout and help doctors reclaim their health, energy and joy in medicine.

Physician and coach Jessie Mahoney discusses her article "Stepping down in medicine is an evolution." In this episode, Jessie challenges the cultural belief that stepping down from medical roles is a sign of weakness, reframing it instead as "graduating." She explains how physicians often hold onto positions out of fear, habit, or identity attachment, even after the role no longer fuels them. Jessie shares how recognizing restlessness, depletion, or loss of joy can serve as invitations to evolve rather than warnings of failure. She introduces tools like Martha Beck's Body Compass to guide decision-making and advocates for normalizing transitions as a courageous act that benefits both physicians and their colleagues. Listeners will learn how letting go before burnout can open space for new growth, fulfillment, and trust in the medical community. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

In mid-September, the UN issued a report stating that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza. Israel vehemently denies the charge. Genocide is the crime of crimes. It is a highly charged and loaded word.  To verify it requires clear and unambiguous evidence. The term was coined by the Polish Jewish lawyer Raphael Lemkin. Genocide combines the Greek prefix “genos” (race, tribe) with the Latin suffix “cide” (killing). Lemkin was aware of the Armenian genocide carried out by the Turks earlier in the 20th century. During the Holocaust, he lost many family members. Lemkin and others were responsible for the Genocide Convention, which was passed unanimously by the UN in 1948. In addition to the recently released UN report, Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch, the International Association of Genocide Scholars, as well as two prominent Israeli rights organizations, B'Tselem and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, declared that Israel's military actions in Gaza constitute genocide.

Have you ever made a detailed plan to change everything at once, only to find yourself back where you started weeks later? Grand plans often look inspiring, but they rarely hold up in daily life.

You'll learn how perfectionism, impatience, and the belief that small steps mean weakness keep you in cycles of all-or-nothing effort. I'll share a simple, practical approach to goal-setting that helps you stay consistent and build trust with yourself over time.   Get full show notes, transcript, and more information here: https://habitsonpurpose.com/194   Join the Habits on Purpose newsletter for extra tools, prompts, and stories between episodes: https://habitsonpurpose.com/

Veteran attorney Dennis Hursh discusses his article "Private practice employment agreements: What happens if private equity swoops in?"

They explore why a one-size-fits-all approach to longevity falls short and how personalized data, from biomarkers to genetics, can spot early signs of disease before symptoms appear.Florence explains her “Nof1” method, which uses deep testing, wearables, and personal history to craft precise health plans. She highlights how sleep, more than exercise or diet, shapes long-term health but remains hard for most people to optimize. Using real-world examples, Florence shows why tracking markers like insulin and hormones matter, and why most people need support to turn health knowledge into action.The conversation covers the limits of standard medical care, the value of knowing your family history, and how even the best routines must adapt over time.

Audit your NPI quarterly via the NPPES registry, check CMS PECOS for unauthorized enrollments, and set Google Alerts for your name + NPI to catch misuse early.  Supervise Mid-Levels Actively: Supervising NPs/PAs means legal accountability—Dr. Woo-Ming stresses customized agreements, documented chart reviews, and malpractice coverage for supervisory roles. Start by maintaining logs of reviews and communications to prove oversight, avoiding liability gaps.  Prioritize Digital Compliance: A five-figure ADA lawsuit over uncaptioned videos taught Dr. Woo-Ming to ensure website accessibility. Use tools like WAVE Accessibility Checker, add captions to all videos, and work with vendors for accessible patient portals to avoid litigation.   About the Show: Bootstrap MD is the ultimate podcast for physician entrepreneurs looking to escape traditional healthcare and control their financial futures.

Life insurance is becoming a standard benefit for employers to offer, but is the group policy enough for a doctor like you? Nate Reineke is joined by Brian Leet, who helps families across the country navigate life and disability insurance. We discuss what to consider when calculating a life insurance policy, and when group life insurance through an employer isn't enough. We also break down when a permanent policy may make more sense compared to a term policy, and how a conversion rider on a term policy could be beneficial to physicians who are just starting. If you'd like to work with Brian, he can be reached at brian@incomepa.com or 503-928-4103.

Packers Head Physician Dr.Mike Ryan Joins Inside Wisconsin Sports With Trevor And Josh. They discuss dealing with NFL injuries, making sure players don't come back to early, and more.

In the shadows of war-torn Paris, a charming young doctor lived a double life. Physician by day, and resistance fighter by night, his underground network promised salvation to those desperate to escape the Nazi grip. But in a time where trust was at a premium, the truth was not necessarily as it seemed. When Dr. Marcel Petiot's home at 21 Rue Le Sueur became a concern to his neighbours as a sickly smelling smoke rose from his furnace, the illusion began to unravel. A resistance fighter, a Gestapo set up, or the scene of countless heinous crimes, the truth was as complicated to the police as it was for those who knew the doctor's friendly smile, and kind bedside manner.

"By 2030, 2035, they're saying we're gonna have more older adults than children in this country. And if Medicaid cuts happen, where are people gonna get care? Their first resort is gonna be going to the emergency department." Dr. Sarita Mohanty knows exactly what's coming—she sees it every shift in urgent care. As President and CEO of The SCAN Foundation, she's racing to transform how America ages while still practicing medicine because, as she puts it, "clinical work gives me an opportunity to really engage on the ground versus being at the 50,000 foot level." Her non-linear journey from LA County General Hospital—where patients waited for days with lines wrapping around the building—through health plan leadership at LA Care and Kaiser Permanente, to now running a major philanthropy, taught her one crucial lesson: the system wasn't built for the people who need it most. Now, with potential Medicaid cuts threatening services like adult day health centers and in-home support, she's watching decades of progress hang in the balance. "When everything costs money, many people just avoid going to see a doctor if they can," shares one older adult through The SCAN Foundation's "People Say" platform—a stark reminder of what's at stake. In this episode of Inspiring Women with Laurie McGraw, Dr. Mohanty reveals: Why she still practices urgent care despite running a major foundation ("I get to see how patients come in, what their challenges are") The coming demographic crisis that will reshape America's healthcare system How COVID proved what's possible when stakeholders drop their silos and move fast Why she went back to business school with three small kids to transform her leadership The power of elevating older adults' voices directly to policymakers How impact investing can catalyze innovation when traditional approaches fail after 30 years Her philosophy: "Leadership isn't about having all the answers, but by listening and collaborating" "Medicine teaches you to avoid mistakes. But leadership requires you to take risks and sometimes fail forward," Dr. Mohanty reflects on her transformation from exam room to boardroom. From treating uninsured patients at LA County to leading a foundation that's reimagining aging in America, Dr. Sarita Mohanty embodies the physician-leader who refuses to choose between ground-level care and systems change. At The SCAN Foundation, she's not just preparing for the silver tsunami—she's ensuring that when it arrives, America's older adults can age with the dignity, purpose, and support they deserve. Her mission isn't just professional—it's personal. With three kids and an aging mother, she's fighting for the healthcare system she wants them to inherit. One where aging isn't a crisis, but a universal reality we're prepared to honor.

What is most important for today's celebration, is that Luke was a physician. Dr. Luke, as I always like to call him, had a particular view that is seen in his gospels and we see it even today. That view is an incredibly compassionate way to look at everyone he meets. His gospel and his second volume, the Acts of the Apostles, portray Jesus as the divine physician.  (Read more…)Here is the Homily from the Twenty-Ninth Sunday of Ordinary Time.

Today we are chatting with a physician who helped her parents pay cash for their car for the first time in their lives. She was vulnerable with us and shared that her parents don't have great financial habits and are going to need a lot of financial help from her. She has begun to educate them around how to be wise with their money and paying cash for the car was a big step for them. She knows that her parents want to be independent and she sees helping them learn what she has learned about money is a kindness to them that will allow them to be independent longer.
