Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith welcomes Dr. Tracey O'Connell, a radiologist whose career journey took a transformative turn when she left a toxic private practice after 16 years. Together, they dive into Dr. O'Connell's path from aspiring psychiatrist to radiologist and ultimately to her work focusing on vulnerability, shame resilience, and expressive writing—especially among physicians and marginalized groups. Dr. O'Connell opens up about her early influences, the emotional challenges of medical training, and how technological shifts in radiology contributed to feelings of isolation. She shares her personal experience of grappling with shame and the toll that unsustainable work practices can take on mental health. Dr. O'Connell also discusses how discovering expressive writing and the work of Brene Brown helped her reconnect with herself and build resilience—insights she now brings to her coaching and writing workshops. If you're a clinician looking for ways to create a more sustainable career and life, or interested in how vulnerability and self-reflection can transform your wellbeing, this candid conversation offers inspiration, tools, and hope. Let's dive in! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Vulnerability is Key to Physician Well-being: Dr. O'Connell highlights that being vulnerable with ourselves is a crucial first step. This can be made more accessible through expressive writing, providing a safe space for self-reflection before sharing with others. Redefining Career “Success” in Medicine: Her story challenges the idea that conforming to traditional work patterns is the only path forward. Doing things differently to protect personal well-being sometimes feels isolating, but it's a vital part of creating a sustainable career. Expressive Writing as a Healing Tool: She describes how non-judgmental self-reflection through writing can unlock growth and be a gateway to real change—especially for those struggling with burnout, shame, or isolation in clinical settings. Meet Dr. Tracey O'Connell: Tracey O'Connell, MD is a radiologist, professional certified coach, consultant, educator, and facilitator of expressive writing and Brene Brown's shame resilience programs. She provides tools for good people having a hard time, tired of feeling lonely, negative, or out of place. After many years of feeling "not enough" as a person, a physician, a parent, or partner, her work fosters positive self-worth, psychological safety, and shame resilience for others. She is currently adjusting to life as an "empty nester" and is curious about what's next for her.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith is joined by Dr. Heather Signorelli—pathologist, business leader, and founder of a medical billing company—to dive into the practical side of billing, optimizing clinical workflows, and turning inefficiency into sustainability. Together, they tackle one of medicine's most vexing issues: how to make sure you're getting paid for the important work you do—all while reducing frustration and freeing up more time for life outside medicine. Dr. Signorelli shares her journey from clinical pathology to the business end of healthcare, drawing on years of experience in workflow optimization and billing stewardship across the U.S. and Canada. Tune in as they break down key points about revenue cycles, documentation, avoiding common billing mistakes, tackling administrative burdens, and leveraging teamwork for better compliance and less personal stress. Whether you're struggling to keep up with billing, navigating complex healthcare systems, or just looking for actionable tips to make your practice more efficient and financially sustainable, this conversation is packed with real-world insights and resources. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Understand the "Language" of Billing: Mastering billing is about learning a new language that isn't taught in medical school, but is essential for ensuring you're paid appropriately for your work—whether salaried or fee-for-service. Optimize Workflow and Delegate: Sustainable and efficient practices rely on setting clear priorities, leveraging team members' strengths, and building strong processes—especially for things like data collection, documentation, and patient billing. Audit and Education Matter: Regular internal audits and ongoing education around coding, compliance, and payer rules can save you from costly errors, denials, or paybacks—and reduce the administrative overwhelm over time. Meet Dr. Heather Signorelli: Dr. Heather Signorelli is a board-certified pathologist and physician executive with over a decade of experience leading healthcare teams. She co-founded NatRevMD, a physician-led medical billing company that's been in business for 3 years, now supporting 26 practices with a team of over 65 billing and coding experts.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Peter Baum, a family medicine physician, medical director, and physician coach with a special focus on negotiation for early career doctors. Dr. Baum opens up about his personal journey through burnout—sharing his struggles with long hours, the pressures of perfectionism, and the impact these challenges had on his well-being and family life. He discusses how coaching helped him reclaim his time, shift his mindset, and develop practical strategies for more sustainable charting and patient care. Together, Dr. Smith and Dr. Baum also explore the often-overlooked world of physician contract negotiation. Dr. Baum shares his mission to empower doctors—especially new grads—to advocate for both their worth and their time, and provides insight into the evolving landscape of physician employment in the U.S., including pay models, wage gaps, parental leave, and the importance of setting healthy boundaries. Whether you're feeling overwhelmed by your clinical workload, wondering how to approach your next contract negotiation, or simply searching for ways to make your medical career more sustainable, this episode is packed with real-life stories, practical advice, and hope for a better balance inside and outside of medicine. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Perfectionism in Charting Can Lead to Burnout Baum described how striving for "perfect" documentation and internalizing imposter syndrome left him stuck—late nights, missed family time, and growing dissatisfaction. He emphasized the importance of mindset shifts, letting go of perfection, and embracing efficient workflows. Sometimes, “good enough” really is best for our own wellbeing. Setting Boundaries Is Essential for Sustainable Care Learning to set healthy boundaries with patients—through strong agenda-setting and recognizing what truly requires immediate attention—was a game-changer. Dr. Baum shared practical scripts and reframes, allowing for quality care, but not at the expense of personal wellbeing or family life. Negotiate Your Worth Early (and Don't Forget About Non-Salary Benefits) Baum now coaches physicians in contract negotiation, with a special focus on early-career docs who often accept lowball offers out of fear or lack of information. He reminds us to ask about salary, workload, parental leave, and compensation for inbox management—ALL aspects that affect career sustainability and satisfaction.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this special cross-pollinated episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Siobhan Key and Dr. Jessie Mahoney—two fellow physician coaches and long-time collaborators—for a candid conversation about reframing life and work in medicine for greater sustainability. As the panel reflects on the past year and looks forward to 2025, they open up about personal growth, big life transitions, and how each of them is intentionally crafting a more fulfilling and balanced life both inside and outside the clinic. Listen in as Dr. Smith shares her journey of returning to Australia and embracing new adventures, Dr. Mahoney discusses building a retreat center and leaning into new opportunities, and Dr. Key explores the importance of replenishment, self-reflection, and pursuing passions beyond medicine. Together, they offer practical insights on adapting to change—whether it's integrating new technologies like AI scribing or simply surviving a new EMR rollout—and they speak honestly about the discomfort, excitement, and learning that comes with growth. This episode is filled with tips for creating sustainable routines, reflections on personal and professional development, and encouragement to embrace both the challenges and rewards of transformation. Whether you're a seasoned physician or just starting your practice, you'll find reassurance and inspiration in the stories, strategies, and camaraderie shared in today's discussion. Let's dive in! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Embrace Change at Your Own Pace: Whether it's new technology like AI scribing or a shift in your clinical environment, remember that adapting is a process—not a race. Give yourself grace and patience as you work through the inefficiencies and discomfort that accompany change (you're not alone in feeling overwhelmed at times!). Intentional Reflection Fuels Growth: Instead of traditional resolutions, try reflecting on the past year—what you're proud of, what challenged you, and what you truly want in the year ahead. For us, themes like connection, adventure, belonging, and “more me” set the tone for 2024. Connection & Coaching Matter: Sharing your struggles and wins—whether in group coaching, with a colleague, or through community—reduces isolation and leads to creative solutions. Investing in yourself (through coaching or peer support) isn't just valuable, it's transformative for your career and well-being. Letting Go of Frustration and Embracing Change Dr. Jessie Mahoney, a mindfulness coach and yoga instructor, shared a powerful analogy from her life. She recently moved to the countryside, where a creek outside her home serves as a daily reminder of how life ebbs and flows. Some days, the creek is calm and quiet; other days, it's noisy and chaotic. She's learned to embrace these shifts, recognizing that frustration only makes the hard moments harder. For physicians, this perspective is invaluable. Whether it's navigating a new workflow or dealing with workplace changes, letting go of frustration and focusing on what you can control can make all the difference. Asking for What You Need Dr. Sarah Smith has been adjusting to life and work in a new country, and she shared a simple but effective strategy: step back and ask yourself, What do I need to make this work for me? Whether you're facing a new team dynamic or adapting to technological shifts in your practice, pausing to evaluate your needs—and advocating for them—can help you approach change with confidence instead of overwhelm. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Jessi Gold, psychiatrist, author, and Chief Wellness Officer for the University of Tennessee system. Together, they delve into Dr. Gold's fascinating journey through medicine—from her early days resisting the pull of psychiatry, despite her father's influence, to finding her true calling in supporting healthcare workers and college students through mental health challenges. Dr. Gold shares candid stories about her own mental health struggles, the barriers to seeking help in medicine, and how the COVID-19 pandemic reshaped her clinical focus to frontline healthcare workers. She opens up about recognizing burnout in herself, the subtlety of its symptoms, and the lessons she learned about self-care, connection, and setting boundaries. Along the way, Dr. Gold offers practical strategies for identifying burnout early, building resilience, and creating sustainable ways to care for ourselves and each other in healthcare. If you've ever wondered how to stay well while caring for others—or found yourself feeling isolated in your own struggles—this episode is for you. Join us as Dr. Gold brings wisdom, vulnerability, and humor to the vital conversation about humanity in medicine, and learn simple, actionable steps you can take to support your own mental health. Let's dive in! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Burnout Creeps in Subtly: It's rarely one big event. The signs can include relentless fatigue, irritability with routine work tasks (like inbox overload!), and gradual withdrawal from friends and family. Often, they go unnoticed until things become critical. Check in With Yourself—Intentionally: Gold emphasizes the importance of pausing after tough clinical interactions to genuinely ask yourself, “How am I doing?” This simple self-awareness practice is more powerful than it sounds and is a foundational skill in building emotional resilience. Connection is Medicine, Too: Vulnerability among colleagues and strong social connections are not just “nice to have”—they're protective against burnout. Sharing how you're really doing creates a culture of support and reduces feelings of isolation in tough times. Meet Dr. Jessi Gold: Jessi Gold, MD, MS is the Chief Wellness Officer of the University of Tennessee System and an Associate Professor in the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center. This inaugural leadership position encompasses all five University of Tennessee campuses, UT Knoxville, UT Chattanooga, UT Southern, UT Martin, and UT Health Science Center, and includes over 62,200 students and 19,0000 faculty and staff. In her clinical practice, she sees healthcare workers, trainees, and young adults in college. Dr. Gold is also a fierce mental health advocate and highly sought-after expert in the media on everything from burnout to celebrity self-disclosure.

Whether you're feeling overwhelmed or simply ready to put more life back into your days, this conversation is packed with practical strategies and inspiring stories to help you create a more sustainable, joyful approach to medicine. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Prioritize YOU, Not Just Your Patients: Kustec realized that saying yes to everything led to severe burnout and personal sacrifice. She flipped the script by learning to prioritize her own needs—without guilt—so she could bring her best self to both medicine and life. Small Changes = Major Impact: You don't need a drastic overhaul to see results. Whether it's carving out just five extra minutes in your day, cutting unnecessary meetings, or handing off responsibilities, every little bit lightens the load and gives you space to thrive. Rewrite Your Inner Narrative: Through mindset work and coaching, Dr. Kustec changed her deeply ingrained beliefs about “not being enough.” She even wrote a new life script and practiced affirming it daily—leading not only to a more sustainable practice, but also meeting her life partner, starting a family, and rediscovering joy outside the clinic. Meet Dr. Vanessa Kustec: Originally from Montreal, Dr. Kustec is currently a family physician in Stratford, Ontario where she lives with her husband and baby girl. She also works as a hospitalist and long-term care physician. Over the years, she's also held various administrative positions such as Chief Hospitalist at Stratford General Hospital, HPA Ontario Health Team Implementation Committee Physician Representative and the STAR Family Health Team Lead Physician. Her areas of interest include primary care, hospital medicine, long-term care, dermatology, and quality improvement, and she also enjoys teaching. Most recently, she pursues all this with a newly created work-life balance. She is now passionate about empowering others to do the same as a physician work-life balance coach. Her vision is for every doctor and healthcare worker to access coaching and acquire these vital skills, as they have the power to revolutionize our entire healthcare system. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this inspiring episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Linde Corrigan, a family physician practicing in Ontario's Ottawa Valley. Dr. Corrigan shares her journey as a rural generalist, juggling family medicine, care of the elderly, and specialized clinic procedures—all while navigating the unique challenges of ADHD within the medical profession. Listen in as Dr. Corrigan opens up about overcoming imposter syndrome, adapting her workflow to suit her learning style, and the tools and reframing strategies that have helped her create a more sustainable clinical day. She and Dr. Smith discuss practical solutions—from using timers and EMR hacks to embracing positive self-talk and gamifying the most dreaded tasks. Whether you're facing your own clinical challenges or just looking for ways to make your workday more manageable, this conversation is packed with actionable insights and relatable stories. Tune in for an honest, uplifting, and strategy-filled episode designed to help you reclaim time for your life outside of medicine! Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Make the Most of Your Strengths: Recognizing personal strengths and challenges (like leveraging visual memory or adapting workflows for ADHD) can be a game-changer in both career direction and daily efficiency. Reframe the Hard Parts: Shifting mindset—from “I have to finish this report” to “I'm almost out the door!”—makes a huge difference. Reward yourself, gamify tasks, and see the power of a positive reframe. Gamify for Focus and Flow: Small hacks (timers, shortcut tools like Magical, or breaking tasks into manageable chunks) help combat time blindness and overwhelm, making even inbox management feel like a win. Meet Dr. Linde Corrigan: I am a rural family physician with enhanced certification in care of elderly. Currently, I work part-time in my family medicine practice in Petawawa, as well as part-time at the hospital, as well as in local long-term care homes in the area.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In today's episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Sarah Lea, a family and addiction medicine physician based in Victoria, BC, to discuss her deeply personal and transformative journey through medicine. Together, they dive into Dr. Lea's experiences navigating medical training, motherhood, and a rewarding but complex clinical career—including her candid account of facing and working through burnout. Dr. Lea shares how she balanced demanding clinical roles, built an innovative perinatal addiction medicine program, and ultimately made tough decisions to prioritize her well-being and her family. Listeners will hear about the support systems and strategies she used, like coaching, therapy, and honest conversations at home, as well as her passion for supporting other physicians facing burnout. Plus, Dr. Lea discusses her ongoing work in coaching, retreats, and her own podcast—all aimed at helping clinicians lead more sustainable and fulfilling lives. If you're looking for inspiration, practical tools, and validation that you're not alone in the challenges of practicing medicine, you won't want to miss this insightful and heartfelt episode. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Burnout is often invisible on the outside: Lea describes how, even while “holding it together” at work, burnout showed up at home—as irritability, distraction, and feeling disconnected from family. It's a powerful reminder to check in with how we're actually feeling, not just performing. Support and coaching are essential tools: For Dr. Lea, reaching out to a coach and counselor helped her gain clarity and prioritize her needs, both professionally and personally. Finding or building your support system can be career-saving. Teamwork matters—at home and at work: Whether it's sharing responsibilities with a partner or building multi-disciplinary teams in healthcare, sustainability comes from collaboration. Delegating tasks and honest conversations can lighten the load for everyone. Meet Dr. Sarah Lea: Dr. Sarah A. Lea is a family and addiction medicine physician, executive coach, and wellness champion based in Victoria, BC. With a background in women's health and over a decade in clinical practice, she blends science, storytelling, and soul in her talks and workshops. Whether she's coaching burned-out docs, speaking on perinatal addiction, or helping teams build real-deal resilience, Sarah brings both the evidence and the empathy. She's also a certified meditation instructor and TEDx speaker who believes that well-being is the secret sauce to sustainable healthcare—and she's on a mission to help others lead with energy, authenticity, and heart. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Small Wins & Self-Compassion Matter: Shifting from self-criticism to celebration of even tiny wins each day (like finishing one tough chart, or supporting a grieving patient) helps change the narrative and builds resilience over time. The System is Broken, Not You: The impossible demands of modern medicine make it crucial to set boundaries and redefine what “good enough” looks like for you, rather than striving for unattainable perfection.

The falling out between Donald Trump and Elon Musk has been playing out very publicly on social media, with back and forth insults and threats. Sarah Smith, Marianna Spring, Justin Webb and Anthony Zurcher unpack how the row intensified with Trump threatening to revoke Musk's government contracts and Musk claiming, without evidence, that Trump appeared in the unreleased Epstein files. Musk also suggested that Trump should be impeached. But why does a row between the world's richest person and one of the most powerful, the US president, matter to America and the rest of the world?

Does the public take more notice of the opinions of male or female economists? We know that female experts, whether in science, politics or the media, suffer from an authority gap: their expertise is often not given as much weight by the public as opinions held by less qualified men. But does the gap persist for the very highest achievers? And, if it closes or even reverses for them, what lessons are there for other female experts?  Sarah Smith of the University of Bristol and CEPR recently conducted an experiment about which expert economists are most likely to influence public opinion. She tells Tim Phillips about a signal that reverses the authority gap, and how this insight can help other female economists to communicate their expertise.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this inspiring episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Ellen Tsai, a pediatric critical care physician educator and coach with a rich and varied career spanning over two decades. Ellen shares her journey from the high-intensity world of pediatric critical care to her work in bioethics, legal medicine, and now physician coaching. They dive deep into strategies for sustaining well-being in demanding medical fields, building strong team dynamics, and the importance of honest, compassionate communication with families facing tough decisions. Ellen also opens up about her own experience with burnout, the role coaching played in her recovery, and how she continues to support fellow physicians navigating similar challenges today. Whether you're interested in practical tips for creating a more sustainable clinical day, curious about the intersection of medicine and ethics, or seeking inspiration for your own path in healthcare, this episode is full of insights you won't want to miss. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Investing in Team Communication & Safe Learning: Effective care in high-stress environments depends on open collaboration and psychological safety. Creating a space where team members—especially trainees—can ask questions and admit when they don't know something is essential for both patient outcomes and professional growth. Embracing the “Gray Zone” of Bioethics: Ellen Tsai's experience teaching bioethics reminds us that medicine is full of ambiguous, emotionally charged situations. Cultivating curiosity, empathy, and respect for differing values helps clinicians support families while navigating complex decisions—sometimes, just “having the conversation” is more important than reaching a quick decision. Proactive Self-care & Seeking Support: Burnout often surfaces quietly and insidiously. Ellen Tsai's candid discussion of her own journey highlights the need for early recognition, reaching out for help, and the value of coaching. She also emphasized that medical-legal events can be devastating, but do not define your competence or worth as a physician.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. AJ (Amjed) Kadhim-Saleh, a dynamic family physician and entrepreneur from Toronto. Dr. AJ shares his inspiring journey from dreaming about building his own clinic during residency to actually opening the doors of his practice—starting with just a concrete slab and a vision of long-term sustainability in medicine. The conversation dives into the nuts and bolts of setting up a clinic from scratch, the importance of efficient systems, and the sometimes-overwhelming administrative burden that comes with being both a physician and practice owner. Dr. AJ openly discusses the challenges he faced with paperwork, how it began to impact his family life, and the pivotal moment that led him to co-found Pippin AI, an innovative AI scribe designed to support family doctors. Along the way, Dr. AJ and Dr. Smith explore the often overlooked business side of medical practice, the need for practical education in practice management, and how embracing change (with a little entrepreneurial grit and a supportive team) can help create a more sustainable clinical day—and a life outside of medicine. Whether you're a new resident thinking about your future, a physician looking for inspiration to build a more efficient practice, or just curious about how technology is shaping the future of primary care, this episode is packed with insights, practical tips, and plenty of encouragement to pursue your vision. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Build with Vision & Community: Starting a clinic from the ground up is about more than architectural plans—it's about designing systems, choosing supportive partners, and cultivating a team invested in sustainable change. Embrace Technology for Sustainability: Efficient tools—like secure patient portals and AI-powered documentation—can relieve the paperwork burden, free up precious hours, and allow us to focus on quality patient care (and our lives outside the clinic!). Change is a Team Sport: Successful practice transformation hinges on bringing your people along for the ride. Clearly communicate the “why” behind changes, tailor solutions to their needs, and foster an environment of ongoing collaboration and support. Meet Dr. AJ (Amjed) Kadhim-Saleh: Dr. Amjed Kadhim-Saleh (AJ for short) is a community family physician, clinic owner, and health technology entrepreneur in Toronto. AJ graduated medical school from the University of Ottawa, and completed his family medicine residency at the University of Toronto.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this special episode, Dr. Sarah Smith joins forces with Dr. Priyanka Venugopal from the Unstoppable Mom Brain Podcast for a deeply insightful conversation all about reclaiming time and creating more sustainable clinical practices. Together, they dive into the real-life struggles physicians face when it comes to finishing work at work—and not letting charting and paperwork spill into precious family time. Dr. Smith shares her own journey of burnout, the “aha” moments that changed her approach forever, and the practical strategies that helped her—and now hundreds of other clinicians—conquer endless documentation and interruptions. This episode is packed with actionable gems, from simple mindset shifts to rethinking workflow, delegation, and team dynamics. Whether you're a physician, a professional working mom, or anyone craving more balance between career and home, this conversation will inspire you to rethink what's possible. Tune in for tangible tips, relatable stories, and a whole lot of encouragement to create those “bucket loads of time” you've been searching for. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Redesign Your Workflow—One Small Step at a Time: Challenging your status quo doesn't require a massive overhaul overnight. Dr. Smith emphasizes starting with one thing you wish were different, then getting curious about how to make that change—whether it's charting as you go or setting clearer boundaries for finishing tasks before heading home. Choose the 'Goat Track' over the 'Superhighway': Our brains crave familiar (often inefficient) routines. Breaking those habits will feel awkward and slower at first, but staying consistent creates more “bucket loads of time”—those open evenings and weekends we all crave. Teamwork and Delegation Create Freedom: Whether you have a team or work solo, look for ways to delegate, systematize, and create assets that make recurring tasks easier. Training others (or even your future self!) means you spend your best energy on what truly requires your expertise. Episode 102: Burn Stress. Lose Weight. Podcast (Formerly the Unstoppable Mom Brain Podcast) In this episode of the Unstoppable Mom Brain Podcast, I have Dr. Sarah Smith sharing her journey from being a rural family physician to becoming an expert in optimizing work-life balance for physicians, particularly focusing on completing tasks efficiently during clinical hours.

Through her coaching, she helps physicians reclaim their time, reduce stress, and prioritize their well-being while excelling in their careers.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this compelling episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson—known as Dr. Toya—to discuss her transformative journey through medicine, from her beginnings in Trinidad and Tobago to her training as an OB/GYN in the US, and ultimately her bold decision to step away from clinical practice. Dr. Toya candidly opens up about her experiences with burnout in residency and corporate medicine, the toll it took on her personal well-being, and the moments that sparked real change in her career and life. She shares how a leap into entrepreneurship during the COVID-19 pandemic rekindled her confidence and purpose beyond clinical work, eventually inspiring her to become a coach for physician moms navigating medicine and motherhood. Dr. Toya reveals practical tools she used for efficiency, like templates and support systems, and emphasizes the importance of advocacy, boundaries, and accepting support—whether at work or at home. Tune in for an honest, inspiring conversation about resilience, redefining success in medicine, and the power of community and self-compassion in building a sustainable clinical career. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Support Matters at Work and Home: Whether advocating for yourself in a tough clinical environment or building a support system at home, allowing yourself to be supported is crucial. As Dr. La Toya shared, “We have worked so hard to get where we are. Allow yourself to be supported.” Efficiency and Boundaries Fight Burnout: La Toya emphasized the power of systems, templates, and boundaries, both in patient care and personal life. Tackling the inbox right away, leveraging dictation and templates, and having clear work/home boundaries helped her stay efficient—and sane. Burnout Isn't the End—It's a Call to Innovate:Experiencing burnout multiple times gave Dr. La Toya new perspectives and fueled her pivot into entrepreneurship and coaching. She now empowers physician moms to carve their own pathways—inside or outside medicine: “They can stay in medicine if that's what they want. They can leave medicine if that's what they want. They can find their balance.” Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson Bio: Dr. La Toya Luces-Sampson aka Dr. Toya, is a wife, mother, board-certified Obstetrician and Gynecologist, perinatal mental health specialist, and Coach. She helps Physician Moms thrive in medicine and motherhood without complete self-sacrifice. With over a decade of experience in women's health, Dr. Toya empowers physician moms through private and group coaching and her podcast, ✨Stethoscopes and Strollers✨ a space where physician moms can feel a little more seen and a lot less alone. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In this episode, Dr. Sarah Smith is joined by Sue Peters—a healthcare improvement leader with a background in audiology and extensive experience in quality improvement for clinical teams. Sue and Sarah dive into the day-to-day challenges clinicians face, from the dreaded in-basket workload to the complexities of team communication and patient care coordination. Together, they explore practical strategies to streamline processes, clarify roles within clinical teams, and leverage everyone's unique skills to create more efficient and sustainable practice environments. Sue shares actionable tips on offloading non-physician work, optimizing EMRs, and effectively onboarding patients—all while ensuring that both providers and patients benefit from these improvements. Plus, they chat about breaking old habits, embracing true teamwork, and even finding ways to take things out of everyone's overloaded "backpack." Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Embrace Team-Based Care: Don't try to shoulder all the work alone. By clearly defining roles and empowering every member of the care team—from RNs and LPNs to MOAs—practices can improve patient access, reduce wait times, and allow clinicians to focus on what matters most. Optimize Your EMR Processes: Standardizing how we populate and use EMR data not only improves patient care, but also makes it much easier to delegate and manage population health. Consistency in documentation enables actionable reporting—and lets the right team member handle the right task. Involve Everyone in Change: Successful quality improvement requires all voices at the table, not just physicians. When team members participate in designing solutions, they're more engaged, invested, and open to new ways of working. Sue Peters Bio: Sue Peters is a Healthcare Improvement Leader working with Primary Care and Specialty Teams to achieve true team-based care through Quality Improvement. Imagine a team where every member has a critical role in patient care and is working to top of scope, allowing you to focus on the work for which you are highly trained - It is possible. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In today's episode, Dr. Sarah Smith tackles a challenge every clinician knows all too well—the dreaded backlog. Whether its unfinished charts, lab results waiting for review, or paperwork accumulated from a busy week, backlog is that persistent weight that follows us home and keeps us up at night. Dr. Smith gets real about the emotional toll backlog can take, from the shame and overwhelm to the constant struggle to find time amidst ever-increasing clinical demands. You'll hear practical tips for managing your backlog, transforming bonus moments in your day into productive opportunity, and making a concrete plan that helps you finally clear that In-basket. Plus, learn more about Backlog Buddies, Dr. Smith's virtual co-working sessions designed to keep you accountable and in good company as you power through your outstanding tasks.

Tune in and discover how to turn backlog from an endless chore into a manageable—and even occasionally satisfying—part of your clinical routine. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Plan Ahead for Backlog: Don't wait for the “right moment”—schedule dedicated sessions to tackle backlog and decide ahead of time what you'll work on first. Use Bonus Time Wisely: Take advantage of unexpected lulls or no-shows by knowing in advance which quick tasks you can clear off your list in those smaller pockets of time. Celebrate Small Wins: Set a clear end time for backlog work, then acknowledge your progress—even if you only get a few tasks done. Being kind to yourself is crucial for sustainability. Backlog Buddies: Backlog Buddies is A Virtual Co-Working Space for Physicians and Clinicians to get their incomplete tasks and charts done. Set aside procrastination, work hard alongside peers for 2 hours and be delighted in what you can achieve with dedicated time and friends.

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast! In today's episode, Dr. Sarah Smith sits down with Dr. Judy Wright—family physician, wellness and performance strategist, and passionate advocate for clinician well-being. Dr. Wright shares her own journey through various sectors of medicine, from community health and academia to the insurance industry and corrections, highlighting the personal costs, challenges, and ultimate evolution of her approach to sustainable practice. Listen as Dr. Wright opens up about the pressures of double-booked schedules, late nights spent charting, and the emotional load that follows physicians out of the clinic. She discusses pivotal moments when she realized the need for boundaries, respect, and realism in her work environment, and how major life changes—like becoming a parent—helped her reframe her priorities. Dr. Wright offers candid advice for clinicians who feel overwhelmed, sharing practical insights on setting boundaries, advocating for personal needs, and creating those vital pauses during the clinical day. Whether you're struggling with burnout, searching for ways to make your career more sustainable, or simply want to hear an inspiring story of transformation, this episode is packed with wisdom you won't want to miss. Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode: Real-Time Documentation is a Game-Changer: Dr. Wright reflected on her early practice of writing notes after hours, leading to burnout and late nights. Switching to real-time documentation (even with patients waiting a bit longer) was transformative, allowing her to finish on time and reclaim personal time. Advocacy Matters—Both for Patients and Yourself: Whether she was fighting for patient care in a health insurance setting or setting boundaries with administration about workload and safety, Dr. Wright emphasized the importance of clear, respectful communication and realistic expectations in clinical practice. Your Pause is Essential (Not Optional): Dr. Wright's mantra: “No one is going to give you your pause—you need to create it.” Intentional breaks and boundary-setting aren't just self-care—they're vital for sustainability and preventing burnout. Dr. Judy Wright Bio: Dr. Judy Wright is a practicing Medical Director, international speaker, and wellness strategist who helps healthcare professionals build sustainable careers without sacrificing their wellbeing. Following her own cancer diagnosis that forced her to confront burnout, Dr. Wright developed practical frameworks that transform how medical professionals approach self-care and stress management. Drawing from over 20 years of experience in healthcare, she created the Life Balance Blueprint™ methodology, which has been implemented by physicians and nurses across multiple hospital systems. Her signature "pause breaks" approach teaches medical professionals how to integrate micro-recovery moments into even the most demanding clinical environments. Dr. Wright has presented her evidence-based strategies at the American Academy of Family Physicians and numerous healthcare institutions. As founder of JW Health Consulting, she partners with hospitals and healthcare organizations to create cultures where medical professionals can thrive. Her mission is simple but powerful: healthcare can only deliver exceptional patient care when providers themselves are well. -------------- Would you like to view a transcript of this episode?
