Palliative care physician and author Alen Voskanian discusses his article, "Discover the secrets to regaining joy in medicine," based on an excerpt from his book. Drawing from his personal experience with burnout where he felt isolated and like a failure within the demanding medical industry, Alen strongly emphasizes that burnout is a common result of a broken health care system, not an individual failing. He offers key advice points for physicians and health care workers: recognize burnout isn't your fault, engage in fixing the system, always prioritize patients ethically, let go of harmful comparison and competition, seek help without shame, make time for loved ones and important life events, prioritize personal health and wellbeing through nutrition, sleep, exercise, and mindfulness, practice gratitude, curb perfectionism, and continually reconnect with your core purpose for entering the field. Alen urges colleagues to understand that joy is their right and to actively reclaim it for themselves, their families, and their patients. Our presenting sponsor is Microsoft Dragon Copilot.

In This Episode: In this inspiring episode of The Ops Experts Club, Aaron and Terryn sit down with Brett Swartz, founder of Capital Gains Tax Solutions and author of the Amazon bestseller Building a Capital Gains Tax Exit Plan. Brett shares insights from his book and his passion for helping entrepreneurs and investors achieve financial freedom through innovative tax strategies. He also dives into the power of goal setting, drawing from his and his wife Melanie's mission-driven approach to life, family, and business.   Key Highlights: The Book: Building a Capital Gains Tax Exit Plan: Brett discusses his Amazon bestseller, co-authored with industry titans like Kevin Harrington (Shark Tank), Don Winter (DLP), and CPA Tyler McBroom. The book blends Brett's expertise in the Deferred Sales Trust—a strategy to defer capital gains taxes and replace the 1031 exchange—with stories of entrepreneurship, real estate investing, and mentorship. It offers practical guidance on building a tax-efficient exit plan and assembling a dream team for family-office-style wealth management. Deferred Sales Trust (DST): Brett explains how the DST empowers business owners and real estate investors to defer taxes on multi-million-dollar exits, unlocking capital to multiply freedom and impact. The book highlights real-world applications, from multi-family properties to mobile home parks, making it a must-read for entrepreneurs and investors. Goal Setting and Living on Mission: Brett shares his and Melanie's intentional approach to goal setting, rooted in their faith and family values. With five kids (ages 6-14), they prioritize a clear family mission, including a bold goal inspired by Don Winter: “1,000 extraordinary days in 100 unique locations” before their kids turn 18. Brett emphasizes defining a clear vision, building systems, hiring coaches, and embracing grit to sustain momentum. He advocates for a growth mindset over a goal mindset, citing John Maxwell and Craig Groeschel to underscore the power of momentum in achieving lasting success. Practical Advice for Aspiring Wealth Builders: For listeners not yet part of the wealth transfer wave, Brett offers actionable steps: clarify your calling, write down and visualize goals, seek mentorship, and implement systems to track progress. His journey from Cheesecake Factory to financial freedom post-2008 crash exemplifies the resilience needed to build a legacy. This episode is a must for entrepreneurs, real estate investors, and operations professionals looking to scale their businesses, plan for tax-efficient exits, and live with purpose. Brett's heartfelt story, practical strategies, and infectious passion make this a motivating and actionable conversation.

What if flexibility at work wasn't a luxury—but the very thing that made your business successful?In this episode, host Natalie Benamou, Founder of HerCsuite®, talks with Kym Insana, a CEO who didn't just build a 7-figure company—she built it around her life. After stepping away from a corporate career to raise her family, Kym knew she still wanted to contribute in a meaningful way. What she created next was something powerful: a business that gives both her and her employees the flexibility to thrive.Kym opens up about what it took to start again, why she prioritized people over hustle, and how a culture of trust and flexibility helped her grow a business that truly works—for everyone involved.3 Takeaways from Kym's Story:Flexibility isn't a perk—it's a foundation. When people have the freedom to work in a way that fits their lives, they show up stronger and more committed.Starting over can be the beginning of something better. Kym left a job she loved, but she didn't lose her sense of purpose—she redirected it.Culture is built by example. When leaders lead with empathy and trust, teams follow suit.✨ Action Step: Ask yourself: If I had complete freedom in how I work, what would it look like? What's one small change I can make today to move closer to that vision—for myself or my team?Keep shining your light bright. The world needs you.Thank you to Kym for being on the show.

Send us a textToday we're talking about energy management and why it's our responsibility to manage our own energy levels.Key Points:Two of my physician clients shared calling out sick as weekly wins in coaching sessions – highlighting how we're trained to always put patient care first, often at our own expenseEnergy management is each of our personal responsibility, and no one else can see our energy levels or tank sizeOur energy tanks change throughout life stages (residency vs. parenting young children vs. empty nesting)Medicine falsely pretends we all have the same energy capacityWhen we choose to take a sick day when truly needed, we help change the unhealthy culture of medicineNotable Quotes from Today's Episode:"We are trained to put ourselves last, always. We are trained to work through, push through, ignore our bodies, ignore anything that we're feeling or experiencing... in order to put patient care first.""No one can see the energy that we do or don't have. They can't see how big the tank is, they can't see how big the spigot is that's draining.""Who we are and what we do matters. It matters and it makes a difference. We're going to figure out a way that we can do this and manage our energy in a sustainable way."Practical Advice for All of Us:Let's assess our current life stage and energy capacity realisticallyWe need to recognize when our tanks are depleted and take necessary breaksWe should set proactive boundaries with our teams about our limitationsWe might need to consider whether our practice environments match our energy stylesRemember that chronically pushing through low energy is unsustainable for all of usFinal Thoughts:Finding alignment between patient care and self-care isn't mutually exclusive. By being responsible stewards of our own energy, we can create sustainable pathways to continue practicing medicine effectively while honoring our human needs.Need more support?
