On June 29, a pipeline ruptured in West Tennessee, spilling approximately 200,000 gallons of crude oil. It was the second-largest spill in state history. But at the time, there was no public announcement of the spill, which came very close to contaminating Tennessee's largest aquifer. Environmental activists say this incident goes to show that the state needs to do a better job of maintaining its existing oil and gas pipelines, rather than building new ones. But a new state law just made it easier to build this kind of infrastructure. What do we know about the state of pipelines in Tennessee? And how are efforts to block new pipelines going to work in the future? But first, we look at the race to replace controversial Rutherford County juvenile court judge Donna Scott Davenport, who was the subject of a WPLN-Pro Publica report that revealed decades of illegal jailing of children. Guests: Paige Pfleger, WPLN criminal justice reporter Sarah Houston, Executive Director, Protect Our Aquifer Scott Banbury, Conservation Program Coordinator and Lobbyist, Tennessee Chapter of the Sierra Club Justin Pearson, Memphis Community Against Pollution

Notes - Becoming & Thriving as a Fellowship Program Director with Dr. Katie Berlacher and Dr. Julie Damp Drafted by Dr. Victoria Thomas. 1. What does it mean to be a big “E” when people say they are a clinician Educator? It can mean teaching students directly at bedside.  However, it is also a sacrifice of daily mentoring and listening to students' challenges and difficulties.Being a clinician educator is just as much of a calling as is serving in medicine.Clinician Educators focus on medicine but also the science and best practices of teaching the art of doctoring. 2. What is physician burnout? Why is this important for to CardioNerds? Physician burnout is a syndrome of chronic workplace stress that leads to emotional exhaustion and a sense of dissatisfaction and disconnection personally and professionally. 30-45% of cardiologists have reported physician burnout. 3. What factors affect physician burnout? Emotional and physical exhaustion often lead to physician burnout. First year of training as an intern or fellow and first year of serving as an attending are particularly high-risk periods. This is largely due to learning a new system and responsibilities mixed with a sense of decreased accomplishment.The sense of decreased accomplishment can lead to physicians suffering from impostor syndrome.Grit can be defined as a perseverance for long-term goals.  The level of grit was not associated with burnout among first-year Internal Medicine residents. 4. What are some of the solutions to prevent or address physician burnout? Physicians need to feel a sense of belonging and should be supported and celebrated when they have accomplished something by their colleagues and administrators. Fellows and attendings want to feel listened to and supported.Destigmatizing this idea of “perfection in medicine”. Physician should share with each other their accomplishments but also their mistakes to create a community of personal and professional connection and acceptance.Practicing mini acts of gratitude such as exercise or therapy can...

Pediatricians get up every day thinking about how to meet the needs of children. And very often we forget about our own health. In this episode of Pediatric Meltdown, Dr. Lia and Dr. Michelle Fiscus discusses physician burnout, what it means to face identity challenges as a physician, and overcoming these challenges.  Dr. Michelle Fiscus is a board-certified pediatrician who practiced general pediatrics in Franklin, TN for 17 years before joining the Tennessee Department of Health in 2016. She most recently served as medical director of the Tennessee Vaccine-Preventable Diseases and Immunization Program until she was terminated from that position for sharing a memo regarding a 34-year-old case law that allows certain minors to consent for their own medical care. Dr. Fiscus was thrust into the national spotlight after she released a statement shedding light on the choice of those in leadership in Tennessee state government to place their political agendas over the best interest of the people they serve. She has used this platform to support the work of public health and reinforce the importance of vaccines and other public health measures in ending the COVID-19 pandemic. Dr. Fiscus is an associate clinical professor in the Department of Pediatrics at the Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt. She is a past president of the Tennessee Chapter of the American Academy of Pediatrics and now serves on the Board of Directors of the American Academy of Pediatrics as District IV Chair.   [00:01] Dr. MIchelle Fiscus Shares Her Story With Us Why she went into pediatrics  Suffering from significant burnout that led her to Public Health Going into the Vaccine-Preventable Diseases and Immunization Program [11:52] Covid-19, the Vaccine Rollout, and Controversy  Dr. Fiscus' role in COVID mitigation and responses Tennessee's hesitation in promoting COVID-19 vaccines Controversy and pushback regarding vaccination in Tennessee Dr. Fiscus choosing to acknowledge the expiration of her executive service [21:06] The Interference of Politics and Public Health The overstepping of political opinion into COVID-19 management  Dr. Fiscus' exposure to National and International news  How it's been for Dr. Fiscus and the difficulty and challenges of this exposure The toll on mental health when facing criticism and pushback  [32:54] Being a Disruptor in Pediatrics What's next for Dr. Fiscus?   Pediatricians taking the darkest punches and overcoming challenges  If you could go back to when you were in residency what would you tell yourself?   [42:57] Closing Segment   Connect with Dr. Michelle Fiscus on twitter @drfixus Final takeaways: Pursue your passion  Burn out looks like exhaustion  and unhappiness Being a pediatrician can look like many things  The right thing keeps me going; I can move the needle, I am a problem solver, I will hold others accountable in the face of misinformation Key Quotes: “If you know that there's something that you would just love, then figure out how to go get it. You have to make yourself a little bit vulnerable to get there. But don't be afraid to pursue the thing that you think is going to make you happiest.” - Dr. Michelle Fiscus “I honestly couldn't stomach the interference of politics in public health. Just the unwillingness to understand that the decisions that are being made affect real lives and are causing real deaths and real suffering, and real orphans and real impact to our healthcare system.” - Dr. Michelle Fiscus “As you get up every day and think about how to meet the needs of kids, remember to give yourself a moment of grace. “ - Dr. Lia Gaggino  Connect with Dr. Fiscus on twitter @drfixus If you'd like to connect with me, you can find me on https://www.linkedin.com/in/dr-lia-gaggino-80322a31/ (LinkedIn), https://www.facebook.com/DrLiaGaggino/...

“You know, the government has told us that we have to put children in car seats, we have to wear seat belts, we can't drive when we're drunk. There are lots of ways in which the government has intervened on behalf of public health, and this is really one of the most important ones that we've ever had.” Dr. Michelle (Shelley) Fiscus, Chairperson of the Board of Directors of the American Academy of Pediatrics District IV (Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina), Associate Clinical Professor in the Department of Pediatrics at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt University, former Medical Director of the Tennessee Department of Health's Vaccine-Preventable Diseases and Immunization Program In today's episode, Dr. Jen Barna speaks with Dr. Michelle Fiscus to hear a cautionary tale that is very relevant to the times we are living in today.

Mark Campen expresses the importance of farmer's markets in discussing the book Gaining Ground: A Story Of Farmers' Markets, Local Food, And Saving The Family Farm by Forrest Pritchard. Pritchard grew up on a farm but didn’t know much about farming. Fresh out of college with a degree in English and geology, he decided he could save the family farm from financial ruin, a farm his parents have been barely keeping up by using all expendable income from their full time jobs in the city. Beginning with his initial attempt to raise money selling firewood, he tells an engaging story of his career as a nonconventional farmer. Mr. Campen explains, "This book is about family, community and a will to successfully carry on the farming lifestyle, albeit in a different way. Knowing where our food comes from and our potential role in the food system is ‘gaining ground’ here in Knoxville." Mr. Campen serves on Knoxville's City Council representing the 5th district and is Executive Director of the Tennessee Chapter of the Izaak Walton League of America.

November is lung cancer awareness month. Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer death in the U.S., due in part to the fact that so few cases are diagnosed at an early stage when cancer is most curable. Today we're hoping to shed light on a type of cancer that carries a stigma—even though 80% of people diagnosed with lung cancer are former or never-smokers. Joining us for the show is Amy Copeland, the Associate Director of Medical Outreach at Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA), and Jenny White, a lung cancer survivor who never smoked who is now the Director of LCA's Tennessee Chapter.

Within the Trenches is back with episode 35! This episode was recorded at the National NENA Conference and Expo at the Charlotte Convention Center in Charlotte, North Carolina. In this episode I had the pleasure of speaking with Jennifer, Director of Loudon County 9-1-1 in Tennessee and she is also the NENA President for the Tennessee Chapter. Jennifer shared her 9-1-1 story beginning with her time as a telecommunicator to her rise up to the position of director. We also touch on how important 9-1-1 is as the main link in each call and how 9-1-1 is pushed to the back of the emergency services chain. This was the last episode that I recorded at the National NENA Conference in Charlotte, North Carolina. The entire week was amazing and I came out with some new friends and fans of the show. Thank you all for everything and the participation! As always you can email the show at thejcast@thejabberlog.com. Episode topics – How Jennifer got into 9-1-1 Calls that stick with her (i.e. Officer involved shooting) Getting closure from calls taken over 9-1-1 Why 9-1-1 is put off to the side when it comes to the chain of 9-1-1 Services
