Bonnie Koo, MD is here today to discuss Food, Money and Investing in Yourself. The decision to invest in yourself is an important one and often seems difficult to do. What price will you pay in 1, 5, or even 10 years if you don't invest in yourself today? And it turns out, our thoughts can be similar around money and around food--emotional eating is like emotional spending. A budget feels like a “money diet” according to Dr. Koo, and buying something to feel better is like eating something to feel better. Creating a restrictive budget OR diet creates an impossible situation that sets you up for failure and for you to rebel against it. Learning the skills you need is more important than forcing yourself into these restrictions. Dr. Koo will discuss these topics and share her top money-related tips today.   Bonnie Koo, MD is certified life coach, physician and founder of Wealthy Mom MD.

The law states that male and female physicians should be earning the same, but time and time again, the data has proven that this is not the case. Unfair pay structures and circumstances impact female doctors, and they all add up to an uphill battle for equal pay.  It's not just that female physicians are earning less generally.  The specialties we dominate are paid less. We are funneled away from the higher-paying specialties. There also aren't enough women in leadership advocating for equal pay, and we're conditioned not to rock the boat.  When it comes to getting paid what we're worth, there are biases and barriers that are layered in at every step of the process. How do leadership structures get in the way of advocacy? What are some of the societal structures we are battling? What can we do to empower ourselves?  In this episode, I'm joined by certified life coach, physician, and founder of Wealthy Mom MD, Bonnie Koo. We discuss some of the key issues that play into the gender pay gap.  Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode  The specialty pay gap There are some fields that are more associated with women than others. Those specialties not only earn less, but the female physicians within those fields earn less than their male counterparts. Not only are women being pushed into certain specialties, but once they enter those fields and become the majority, the pay in those fields also drops considerably.  Why female leaders in medicine are so important Data shows that if there's one woman in a group of men, she often doesn't speak up. If you have a token woman at the leadership table, and she's uncomfortable speaking up, she's not going to feel open to share her thoughts and impact the conversation. If women in leadership have no voice, their presence is more about optics than actual progress.  How the pay gap robs female physicians on two frontsClosing the gender pay gap isn't just about making things equal going forward. An equally devastating issue is making up for the lost potential and lost earnings from not earning what we're worth in the past. The past is even harder to fix and mitigate, and very often women don't have the resources to fight back and correct it.    Guest Bio  Bonnie Koo, MD is a certified life coach, physician, and founder of Wealthy Mom MD.

Dr. Michael Myers, not only saves lives due to suicide prevention, but also heals families that have lost doctors to suicide. He feels honored and humbled to sit with grieving families, who feel that their loved ones have taken the answers with them. Dr. Myers is also working to change the stigma that is associated with physicians asking for assistance, as they may be concerned about being judged and potentially impacting their medical licences. He speaks worldwide about physician health and physician suicide. He is the author of numerous books on this subject. Dr. Myers shares these powerful nuggets of life wisdom: - listen to others carefully in your everyday journeys - smile to strangers - show up - be present - talk less, listen more - be kind - be sensitive with your language to others and even yourself - for example, some individuals are more comfortable with the term "condition" than illness or disorder - let's try to show respect for individuals who are suffering or have suffered, as they have the determination and fortitude to get better Dr. Myers is Professor of Clinical Psychiatry and immediate past Vice-Chair of Education and Director of Training in the Department of Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences at SUNY-Downstate Medical Center in Brooklyn, NY. He graduated in medicine from the University of Western Ontario in 1966 and did residencies at Los Angeles County-USC Medical Center, Wayne State University (Detroit General Hospital), and the University of British Columbia. Since completing his residency training in 1973 and until June 2008, he taught half-time at the University of British Columbia and was in private practice half-time in Vancouver. He is board certified in Psychiatry by both the Royal College of Physicians & Surgeons of Canada and the American Board of Psychiatry & Neurology. Dr. Myers is the author or co-author of eight books: Why Physicians Die By Suicide: Lessons Learned From Their Families and Others Who Cared (Amazon 2017); The Physician As Patient: A Clinical Handbook for Mental Health Professionals (with Glen Gabbard, American Psychiatric Publishing, Inc., Washington, DC, 2008); Touched By Suicide: Hope and Healing After Loss (With Carla Fine, Gotham/Penguin Books, New York, 2006); The Handbook of Physician Health (with Larry Goldman and Leah Dickstein, American Medical Association, Chicago, 2000); Intimate Relationships in Medical School: How to Make Them Work (Sage Publications, Thousand Oaks CA, 2000); How’s Your Marriage?

Meg describes why the MOC process is so destructive to the practice of medicine and why non-physicians should care. Eric asks the important question: Everyone wants a board certified physician but do you want one certified through the National Board of Physicians & Surgeons or the American Board of Medical Specialties? If you can't answer that question then maybe we need to rethink what the American public really wants. Meg goes over a number of shady practices that physicians have to perform to stay board certified and how those are detrimental to physicians' lives and patient care. They also discuss Meg's Speed Bump Kitchen website, her recipe for Mickey's Ice Cream Sandwiches and how her children discover that cooking is hard. show notes National Board of Physicians and Surgeons : The main alternative physician board certification service serving as an alternate to the American Board of Medical Specialties.
