Physician coaching is a key to culture change in medicine. Inegrating physician coaching into graduate medical education is an effective and impactful intervention.  In this episode, Dr. Tonya Caylor and Jessie share a vibrant conversation about the win-win of bringing coaching to training programs. Getting funding for coaching for your team, residents, and/or fellows doesn't have to be complicated. It also isn't hard. There are lots of different and creative ways to do it. In our experience, once in place- the ROI in coaching is obvious to all.   When trainees receive coaching as part of their training it normalizes a culture of getting help. And that carries forward. When attendings and faculty get coaching at the same time,  the impact is profound. We share why it is optimal to bring in a coach from outside your institution. We talk about gender vs mixed-gender coaching groups and the impact of coaching at different developmental levels of medical training.  Coaching helps trainees connect with presence and acceptance of where they are on the journey of being a physician. It helps them enjoy, appreciate, and optimize ALL the phases of a medical career rather than always waiting to arrive. Coaching helps lessen imposter syndrome, and let go of feelings that you are not enough, and/or don't belong. Actual feedback from fellows about coaching: "I now understand thought errors that perpetuate "imposter syndrome" and can break them down to change my internal beliefs about my own competence." " I was able to make a lot of progress in letting go of feelings of inadequacy and self-doubt." "I think this should be offered at every institution."   Listen to hear what's different between mentorship, therapy, and mindset coaching and why all physicians deserve to have a coach.  Coaching can help all physicians with transitions, job negotiations, and setting themselves up for a sustainable career in medicine. Tonya Caylor, MD, FAAFP, founded Joy in Family Medicine Coaching Services® after realizing physician coaching's power and seeing a paucity of it at the residency level.  Dr. Caylor has had 23 years of post-residency clinical experience, 14 of those years involving academic medicine at the residency level. If you want to bring coaching to family medicine residency programs, reach out to Dr. Caylor here: www.joyinfamilymedicine.com. If you want to bring coaching to a fellowship program (or a team of attendings), reach out to Dr. Mahoney. Dr. Mahoney is an Assistant Volunteer Clinical Professor of Pediatrics at UCSF.  She also has experience as a Department Chief, a Chief Resident, and a preceptor many different levels of medical education.  She has recently successfully advocated for and brought ongoing coaching to fellowship programs at Stanford University and at the Medical University of South Carolina.  She has presented the success of her coaching work at Stanford at the American Conference of Physician Health.  Working with fellows, and bringing coaching to fellowship programs is one of Jessie's greatest coaching pleasures. Reach out to bring this win-win to your program and institution by emailing jessie@jessiemahoneymd.com.

She owns and runs Joy in Family Medicine Coaching Services ® which partners with family medicine residency programs to help residents, faculty, and recent graduates enjoy all of life and thrive in their chosen careers.

She talks about her experience with coaching family medicine residents and faculty and the lightbulb moments she sees. Lastly, we dive into what it takes to change the culture of medicine.

Introducing Dr Tonya Caylor, family medicine doc, who relocated to Alaska from Florida. She describes her journey from academic medicine to independent practice and the recovery from burnout. Her passion is now to help residents and faculty with mindset training to equip them with the tools they need for longevity in their career in medicine. In our conversation, Dr Caylor gives examples of common things residents struggle with and what she has taught through private and group coaching to get them to shift into a perspective that works for them! Our favorite moments: "The one thing that I think was surprising to me, number one, is at the time I was unaware that that was a term or a phenomenon that happens. And it was so insidious, like I thought, in fact, I remember saying at a faculty retreat, like, I feel completely balanced in life. I remember pronouncing this. You know, the joy that I was experiencing in my role. And then it was a few years later, but I was in deep by the time I figured it out." "I had become like an approval addict. I was so over reliant on external validation that when all of my colleagues were super busy and not having the time to, you know, gimme a pat on the back. Really got in my head." "you wanna like work within the system and see if you can make it work for you. But there's a huge difference when a system is working for you rather than against you. And I think we're starting to see institutions recognize that now." "And if they think about the time, blood, sweat, tears, money that went into it, like realizing that coaching could give some tangible traction for them to re-discover the joy in their chosen career, that's how I ended up starting my coaching business."

For residents making the leap into their very first job, navigating interviews, contracts and salary negotiations can feel like a minefield. On one hand, you want to make sure the value you bring to the table is reflected, but on the other hand, you're socialized to take whatever's offered because of your inexperience.    How do we make sure we're not short-changing ourselves at the negotiating table? What are some of the unique pieces of the contract we need to consider?    In this episode, I'm joined by Academic Physician Coach, speaker, and founder of Joy in Family Medicine Coaching Services®, Dr. Tonya Caylor. We talk about setting yourself up for success in your first negotiation.  Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    - Why you shouldn't use your newness to discount yourself  When our employers say there's no room for more money in our packages, should we advocate for ourselves or just accept what's on the table?    - What we have to consider about sign-on and moving bonuses How do we insulate ourselves from complications if the job doesn't work out long-term?    - The power of internal marketing Why do we need to put ourselves in work environments that allow us to highlight what we love about medicine?     Guest Bio    Dr. Tonya Caylor is an Academic Physician Coach for Family Medicine Residencies and Speaker for Physician Professional Fulfillment and well-being. She founded Joy in Family Medicine Coaching Services® after realizing physician coaching's power and seeing a paucity of it at the residency level.   Dr. Caylor developed a curriculum and coaching program to give physicians the tools they need to enjoy their lives and thrive in their chosen careers.

If you have just started a coaching business or if you are thinking about starting one then the issue of choosing a niche is paramount. Choosing a niche is a very important decision that can affect how successful your business will be or if it will even survive at all.  If you choose a niche that is not compatible with your personality, skills and abilities then chances are very high that you will fail in it.  Dr. Tonya Caylor found an area in medicine that could benefit from coaching but whose needs were not being addressed:  the resident.  Medical residents may benefit from coaching because they are often overwhelmed by the amount of work that has to be completed within their shift. Coaching enables them to achieve this objective as it helps them become more organized and efficient in what they do.  Coaches also show medical residents how they can improve their communication skills so that they can better collaborate with other health care providers. She founded Joy in Family Medicine Coaching Services® after realizing the power of physician coaching, and developed a curriculum to give physicians the tools early in their training to sustain a life-long career and find wholeness and joy in the journey.  You'll learn from her amazing journey to tap into an audience that was previously ignored. Dr Tonya Caylor offers a 6 week reset 1:1 coaching program for the struggling resident or faculty, along with a 6 session hybrid coaching for resident or faculty groups that involve some short toolbox talks, group coaching along with 1:1 coaching for each physician in the group.  Learn more at www.joyinfamilymedicine.com   Follow Dr. Tonya Caylor's blog at: https://www.joyinfamilymedicine.com/blog   Dr. Tonya Caylor's  Physician Coaches Profile: https://www.physiciancoaches.com/coaching-category/tonya-caylor   _________________________   PhysicianCoaches.com The #1 Doctor Directory for Physician Coaches, Consultants, and Mentors https://www.PhysicianCoaches.com   FREE Masterclass: How to Become a High Paid, In Demand Physician Coach or Consultant  https://www.positionedphysician.com/f/highly-paid-masterclass   Now an Amazon Best Seller!  The Positioned Physician:  Earn More, Work Smart, and Love Medicine Again, 2nd Edition: Updated with over 50 pages of new content including  new chapters on goal setting, mindset, and sales strategies for a successful online business! https://www.amazon.com/Positioned-Physician-Updated-Smart-Medicine/dp/B08QFBMWC

Burnout comes up a lot in the physician's space, and for a good reason. As women physicians, we are constantly exhausted from progressing our careers while doing everything society expects of women. The good news is that with a few mindset shifts and practices, you can get out of the box of burnout and start feeling like yourself again.   If You Want To Prevent Burnout, You Should: Get clear on what your passion is and create a plan to help you go after it Surround yourself with a supportive and inspiring community Ditch the all or nothing mentality and focus on taking small baby steps towards your goals   Preventing Burnout With Dr. Karen Hoffman Karen Hoffmann, MD, FAAOA, is board certified by the American Board of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery. Since joining Piedmont Ear, Nose, Throat, and Related Allergy in 2007, Dr. Hoffmann has specialized in the medical and surgical treatment of patients with Eustachian tube dysfunction, ear fullness, sinus, and allergy disorders, and hearing loss and chronic ear disease. She has successfully integrated compassionate and innovative care in private practice with clinical research and is passionate about helping others take care of themselves.   You Are In Control of Your Own Outcome Being a mother, wife, and physician, Dr. Hoffman got to a breaking point when she realized that her all-or-nothing mentality and internal dialogue were contributing to her burnout. By taking small baby steps to move away from this mentality and towards a long game strategy, she was able to change her thinking and change her life.  Now, Dr. Hoffman shows up to work every day excited, which reflects back onto her and onto her patients. By finding clients that push her out of her comfort zone and inspire her to approach medicine in a new way, she is pursuing her passion in an inspiring way.   Find Your Passion and Run With It One of the best ways to feel supported going forward in your journey is to find a community of other women and women physicians. If you don't have support, you will feel like you need to do it all. And while your imposter syndrome may be holding you back from finding a community, showing up authentically and making yourself a priority is the best way to overcome it.  The changes you will notice when you start to take care of yourself can be drastic. By getting clear and focusing on your passion, creating a plan to get there, and surrounding yourself with other women who continue to lift each other up, anything is possible.   Homework for Women Physicians Are you ready to prevent burnout by thinking outside of the box and prioritizing yourself?

There are so many myths about the scale and what the ideal body weight is. Some of the biggest are ideal weights, competition weights, and what weight actually looks like on a body. Coach Missy Henry joins me to bust these myths and destigmatize talking about weight.   How to Make Lasting Body Composition Changes Figure out your body type Find realistic weight ranges associated with your body type Set realistic goals Work with an honest coach   About Coach Missy Missy was born and raised in Omaha, NE. She received her Bachelor in Exercises Science and Masters Degree in Health Promotion/Health behavior change from the University of Nebraska Omaha (UNO). She was a full-time faculty member in the Department of Health, Physical Education & Recreation (HPER) at UNO, teaching undergraduate Exercise Science courses for 5 years.  Missy opened Edge Body Boot Camp, a strength and conditioning facility, in December of 2014. Missy and her husband Rob, welcomed their daughter Sawyer in May of 2016. She continues to run the gym and coach people on nutrition and changing health behaviors both in-person and online.   Behind the Scale Myths Coach Missy Henry joins me to talk about some of those myths behind the scale and the truth of body weight. As someone with a background in fitness and athletics and who now coaches women on weight loss and body transformation, Missy knows firsthand how much misinformation is out there. First, we talk about the importance of knowing what your body type is and why you need to understand it at a fundamental level. This leads to a conversation about comparing what you're doing with what your friends are. Missy says you're never going to look like anyone else, so the only thing you actually need to focus on is what works best for your body.   Destigmatizing Weight Once you know your body type, Missy talks about setting realistic goals. This means looking at what weight actually looks like on bodies. We might think we want to weigh 125lbs, but that might not be realistic or healthy for your body.  Missy is passionate about breaking the stigma of talking about “your number,” aka what you weigh. Not only will this open the conversation, but it will also help everyone understand that there's no such thing as a “good” or “bad” weight - weight simply is. It's the same as food: food simply exists, it's neither good nor bad. Finally, Missy talks about why we should all curate our social media feeds. If you find yourself looking at Instagram models feeling bad about your own body - stop following them!   Homework for Women Physicians How are you setting realistic goals for your body? Will you join the movement to destigmatize “the number”? Let me know in the comments on the episode page.   In This Episode  The importance of knowing your body type [6:15] Why you should focus on what works for you, not what your friends are doing [7:15] Why you need to define a realistic goal [8:00] Redefining what “good” and “bad” food and weight is [10:15] Why you should curate your social media feeds [17:15]   Quotes “If you're not going after something individual to you, you're going to spin your wheels. You could be doing the exact same workout and eating the exact same food as your friend, and you will never look like your friend and your friend will never look like you. It's because of your body type. Everybody has a healthy version of themselves.”  [7:29] “People have an unrealistic expectation of what they should weigh and what a healthy weight should weigh. I like to give people a much more realistic range to start getting them out of that box of what healthy is. This lets us form much more appropriate healthy expectations of where they'll go in the process.” [9:04] “Every single bit of your food that you're eating, you should enjoy and should be packed with flavor. You should be doing exercise that adds enjoyment to your life. Performance stuff is a job.” [16:30] “The more you talk about how much you weigh, the less you feel like it embodies you. Ladies, say your number. You are not your number. 175, 205, 315: say it and say it more. You don't have to say it to everybody, but you need to know. You are not your number. Let that stigma go.” [24:40]   Resources Mentioned Join G.O.A.L.S.

Establishing boundaries is one of the healthiest practices you can do for yourself as a woman. Dr. Sasha Shillcutt joins us for her second episode all about boundaries. Why we set them, how to set them, and how life unfolds once we do.   Where to Set Boundaries At Home At Work With Yourself In Your Community With Your Relationships   About Dr. Sasha Shillcutt Sasha K. Shillcutt, MD, MS, FASE is a tenured and endowed Professor and the Vice-Chair of Strategy in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC). Sasha is the CEO & Founder of Brave Enough, a well-published researcher in cardiac anesthesiology and gender equity, author, and international speaker.  Sasha's greatest passion is empowering and encouraging others to achieve well-being in their professional and personal lives. She speaks frequently to executives and leaders on the topics of professional resilience and gender equity. Her TEDx talk titled Resilience: The Art of Failing Forward has been viewed by thousands of people. Her writing has been published in both the New England Journal of Medicine and JAMA.  She leads conferences and retreats for professional women through her organization, Brave Enough. Her first book, Between Grit and Grace: How to be Feminine and Formidable, was released in February 2020.   Setting Boundaries Societal expectations conditioned women not to have boundaries. The world actually relies on a woman's lack of boundaries to exist. Think about it: childcare, housework, lower wages, and so much more.  Dr. Sasha Shillcutt believes that setting boundaries is the first step towards gender equity. But boundaries are not easy to set - and even harder to stick to once we have set them. You need to be firm, especially when you haven't had any boundaries in the past. You might think that the first place you need to set boundaries is at your place of work. But Sasha disagrees; the first place to set your boundaries is at home. Rely on the people who share your home to take their part in the housework and childcare.   Enforcing Your Boundaries When you start to establish and uphold your boundaries, you'll notice that other people will assert theirs, as well. Not only is this a healthy practice that might help you learn where you're overstepping, but it also helps to reaffirm and build more trust in your relationships. It's also natural to get angry when someone crosses or doesn't respect your boundary. But, as Sasha points out, you have to ask yourself if they know about your boundary.  While some boundaries might seem obvious, and you feel like you don't actually have to say anything about them, that isn't always the case. You can never overstate your boundaries. And if someone keeps pushing past yours when they know them, then that person isn't respecting you!   Homework for Women Physicians Do you struggle to say NO or unsubscribe from toxic situations? Take the free quiz and learn what kind of boundary-setter you are and discover resources that will teach you how to transform your to-do list to get more done and learn how to say NO and live guilt-free! Let me know in the comments on the episode page what your result is!   In This Episode  Why the world currently relies on women not having boundaries [2:30] Why you constantly have to practice setting your boundaries [8:45] How setting your own boundaries helps relationships grow [14:00] Why you have to set boundaries at home, first [16:00] Why you get angry when someone crosses your boundaries [24:45]   Quotes “90% of the time when you have conflict or pain in your life, issues with people, or you have stress, it's because you lack boundaries.” [1:29] “We have to set boundaries, we have to change. Boundaries are the first step of gender equity.” [10:00] “The biggest thing that I tell women is to start with their biggest pain point. All of us have a pain point. It could be a person, a family member, a project at work, or something that we're avoiding like the plague because we don't want to say no to it. It could be anything: part of our job, our community, whatever it is, I guarantee that you lack boundaries around it. Just start there. Just start asking yourself what boundaries be like? What would it look like to have boundaries around this?” [23:32] “Your boundary does not exist unless you speak it into existence.” [26:16]   Resources Mentioned How To Create Boundaries Around Social Media and Overcome Backlash Find Out More About the Brave Enough Master Class 5th Annual Brave Enough CME Conference Between Grit and Grace: The Art of Being Feminine and Formidable by Dr. Sasha Shillcutt  Find Dr. Sasha Shillcutt Online Follow Dr. Sasha Shillcutt on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn Check out the full episode page here Find Life Coaching for Women Physicians Online Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Facebook | Instagram  Subscribe to Life Coaching for Women Physicians on Apple Podcasts Podcast production by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Episode 59: Dr. Tonya Caylor on Thinking Outside The Box  Episode 60: Dr. Ashley Sandeen On Finding Herself Again  Episode 52: Dr. Stephanie Byerly on Healing the Healers

Sometimes it's necessary to stop what you're doing and figure out the next step. Dr. Sasha Shillcutt calls this process a pause and pivot and she believes it's essential to move forward.   What Happens When You Pull Back and Pause Get space to examine your life and figure out what you want Release yourself from what's holding you down and back Experience your emotions Move forward   About Dr. Sasha Shillcutt Sasha K. Shillcutt, MD, MS, FASE is a tenured and endowed Professor and the Vice-Chair of Strategy in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC).

The internet can be a harmful place and Dr. Sasha Shillcutt talks about her experience with running her first Facebook group. Sasha talks about how miserable she was while running her Facebook group. She explains how she was keeping it a positive experience for all the group members, but at a detriment to her own mental health. She knew she had to pause and pivot, but the idea of closing her group scared her. But when Sasha finally did pull back from what she was doing, she realized what a good decision it was.   What Happens After a Pause When Sasha took her pause and pivoted, she truly felt free to make better decisions for her life and business. She was no longer tied to something that didn't feel aligned with her values and caused her more stress. It wasn't easy, but Sasha broke free from what held her back. Sasha describes the pause as not being easy - at all - and one of the hardest things she's done, but also one of the most worthwhile. She encourages everyone to pause and pivot when they feel it's necessary. While she was in this space of pause, she also allowed herself to feel her entire range of emotions, including those perceived negative ones she tended to aggressively push aside.   Homework for Women Physicians It's time to grow deep in self-awareness, set clear boundaries, and develop strong time management skills to create the work-life balance you desperately need (and deserve!). In the Brave Enough Masterclass Brave Balance, you will learn tools to live an empowered life and create a long-lasting work-life balance so you live a life you love. Have you ever taken a pause to pivot your life and move forward in a different direction? I'd love to hear about it if you'd like to share. If you haven't, is this something you feel might benefit this era of your life? Let me know in the comments on the episode page.   In This Episode  Why pulling back is a good thing [6:00] What a pause can allow you to do [15:15] How to break free from what's holding you down [20:00] What happens emotionally after a pause [21:30] Why it's okay and essential to feel your whole range of emotions [22:00]   Quotes “Give ourselves permission, as women, every year of our life, or every minute if you feel like it, to pause and pivot. Pull back to have to move forward. Success isn't linear, it doesn't just move from one axis to another, there's a lot of stops and pauses along the way.”[5:20] “The pause hurts so bad. If you think about your success in life, you probably didn't learn much from it. But if you think about the times in your life that were horrible, you probably learned the most life lessons.” [10:34] “I think it's so easy to get sucked into likes, followers, and people-pleasing. But it's a really dangerous, risky place to be. It's so easy to cross that line and make it be unhealthy.” [25:37]   Resources Mentioned Find Out More About the Brave Enough Master Class 5th Annual Brave Enough CME Conference Between Grit and Grace: The Art of Being Feminine and Formidable by Dr. Sasha Shillcutt  Find Dr. Sasha Shillcutt Online Follow Dr. Sasha Shillcutt on Facebook | Instagram | Twitter | LinkedIn Check out the full episode page here Find Life Coaching for Women Physicians Online Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Facebook | Instagram  Subscribe to Life Coaching for Women Physicians on Apple Podcasts Podcast production by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Episode 59: Dr. Tonya Caylor on Thinking Outside The Box  Episode 60: Dr. Ashley Sandeen On Finding Herself Again  Episode 52: Dr. Stephanie Byerly on Healing the Healers

Coaching is such an important practice, and it’s one that has proven benefits for physicians. Dr. Tonya Caylor joins me to talk about group and private coaching, releasing other people’s expectations, and the importance of self-care.   The Benefits of Coaching Group Coaching:  You know you’re not alone struggling with that issue You can help troubleshoot other’s problems which might help you Private Coaching It’s a safe space to talk about problems you don’t want everyone knowing   About Dr. Tonya Caylor Tonya Caylor, MD, FAAFP is a family physician in Anchorage, Alaska. She founded Joy in Family Medicine Coaching after realizing the power of physician coaching and seeing a paucity of it at the resident level.  She developed a systematic curriculum and coaching program to give physicians the tools early in their training to not only sustain a life-long career but also to find wholeness and joy in the journey. Tonya continues to enjoy her clinical practice and remains an on-call faculty for the Alaska Family Medicine Residency Program.  Dr. Caylor has 21 years of post-residency clinical experience, 12 of those years involving academic medicine at the residency level. She completed the faculty development fellowship through the University of Washington. Dr. Caylor is a certified culinary coach through Harvard's Institute of Lifestyle Medicine as well as a Certified Professional Coach through the Life Coach School.  She has completed additional coursework at the Co-Active Training Institute. She coaches medical students through the AMWA-Ignite program, residents, early-career physicians, and faculty through her own program. She is a generalist at heart and sees her clients as whole, capable and resourceful.    Coaching is for Everyone You don’t have to hate your life to invest in a powerful life transformation through coaching. In fact, that’s exactly what happened when Dr. Tonya Caylor came to me for coaching. She said, “I like my life,” and how powerful is that? Coaching helps you apply all those tools you read about in self-help books. Coaching gives you a sounding board, in either a group or private setting, to figure out your next best steps to take. Tonya offers both private and group coaching. She shares the benefits of group coaching and why she loves it so much. In group coaching, you can bounce off the other folks, learn from what issues they’re receiving coaching on, and work on your own critical thinking skills while figuring out what you’d do in their position.   The Importance of Self Care As a self-branded “woo coach,” Tonya worried how other people saw her. But she’s also started releasing other people’s expectations of the type of person and coach she should be. This is one of the reasons you should approach coaching with an open mind; you never know if a certain approach to coaching is exactly the type you need. One of the most common complaints Tonya works with her clients about is burnout. As physicians, it’s so common to experience burnout due to the nature of the job. But by prioritizing self-care and filling your own cup first, you can avoid, or at least minimize, burnout. Self-care is so important! We both urge you to prioritize your self-care. Do what lights you up, make time for what rejuvenates you, and take care of yourself. You will absolutely be a more effective and present physician.   Homework for Women Physicians How are you prioritizing self-care this week? What are some of your favorite self-care activities?

But what coaching does it take those tools and helps you apply them. Without that coaching piece, you’re just reading nice things that tell you what you should think. But the coaching really makes it tangible.” [9:48] “There’s evidence out there. Mayo Clinic, Harvard - There are published studies, evidence-based, randomized controlled trials showing the benefit of physician coaching.” [20:21] “You have to prioritize whatever it is that rejuvenates you and take care of yourself. Then you can be more effective and more present for those you serve.” [22:48]   Resources Mentioned Check out the full episode page here Find Dr. Tonya Caylor Online Follow Dr. Tonya Caylor on Facebook | LinkedIn | YouTube | Twitter Find Life Coaching for Women Physicians Online Follow Dr. Ali Novitsky on Facebook | Instagram  Subscribe to Life Coaching for Women Physicians on Apple Podcasts Podcast production by the team at Counterweight Creative   Related Episodes Episode 51: Dr. Daisy Ramirez-Estrada On Learning to Prioritize Self Care  Episode 53: Dr. Harita Raja on Mind-Body Transformation  Episode 52: Dr. Stephanie Byerly on Healing the Healers
