Podcasts about weili gray

What would you say if I told you that you're just a couple of "No's" away from getting the "Yes" that you want? With this in mind, most of us would likely persist when it comes to asking for what we want/need, right?It's all a part of the art of negotiation, and my guest today, Dr. Weili Gray, is an expert in finding the path to the "Yes!" She joins us in this episode to talk about how advocating for herself, learning to negotiate, and sticking to her asks, helped her overcome physician burnout on several occasions throughout her career.Dr. Gray is board-certified in anesthesia, sleep medicine, lifestyle medicine, and integrative medicine, and she is the founder/host of the Dare to Dream Physician Travel Podcast. She is also a certified life planner, and her driving goal is to help physicians live the life that they dream of as a way of honoring the beautiful gift of life that they've been given.At a certain point in her own career, she realized that she had become "numb" to the life that was happening around her, and was simply drifting through the years. A few life changing events made her think to herself that this isn't how she wanted to live, so she really intentionally decided to get in touch with what she wanted from her life. For her, this meant travel, spending time with family, and striking a balance with work that allowed her to appreciate how special the physician-patient relationship is.This episode is the story of her initial struggles in medicine, followed by how she learned to negotiate for the life that she now lives with enthusiasm and gratitude.

A lot of physicians, including Elisa, love to travel. Dr. Weili (pronunced "Way Lee") Gray, host of the Dare to Dream Physician Travel Podcast talks about her journey from burnout to life planning to traveling around the world while still enjoying working as a physician. A pivoting point in Weili's life was when she  volunteered at a conference for financial advisors for a life planning session.In this episode, Weili mentions the three questions of life planning. Elisa made a YouTube video on the three questions of life planning which you can find on her YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/c/wealthymindsetmd (the precursor to The Grow Your Wealthy Mindset Podcast), the direct link to the Kinder questions https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zFEqA6sU5OY&t=4s George Kinder's Three Questions:Question 1: Design Your LifeI want you to imagine that you are financially secure, that you have enough money to take care of your needs, now and in the future. The question is, how would you live your life? What would you do with the money? Would you change anything? Let yourself go. Don't hold back your dreams. Describe a life that is complete, that is richly yours.Question 2: You Have Less TimeThis time, you visit your doctor who tells you that you have five to ten years left to live. The good part is that you won't ever feel sick. The bad news is that you will have no notice of the moment of your death. What will you do in the time you have remaining to live? Will you change your life, and how will you do it?Question 3: Today's the DayThis time, your doctor shocks you with the news that you have only one day left to live. Notice what feelings arise as you confront your very real mortality. Ask yourself: What dreams will be left unfulfilled? What do I wish I had finished or had been? What do I wish I had done? [Did I miss anything]?Dr. Gray founded Dare to Dream Physician, a mission-driven endeavor empowering fellow doctors to dream big and embrace life through travel.

Dr. Gray recognized the value this would bring for everyone.A scribe would have an opportunity to grow in a medical environment while taking tasks off Dr. Gray's plate to allow her to do what she does best and loves most about her job as a sleep physician. Ultimately this arrangement would provide a thriving work environment and physician retention at the rural Vermont hospital where she's employed.Talk about WINS all around!And there's more.

When women come together, transformation happens. That's what I love about my group programs: they're full of women physicians who support, uplift, and encourage each other through all of the ups and downs that come with any kind of transformation journey. This is part one of a three-part series where I speak to some of the incredible women in my group programs.   Key Takeaways You are enough just as you are. You're worth it and you are enough.   A Supportive, Uplifting Community It's so common as teenage girls to want to be the thinnest, skinniest version of ourselves. But what happens when that's not your natural body type? When you first start on a transformation journey and start to build muscle strength, you will likely put on a bit of weight. The support from other women physicians is incredible. When this happened to one of my program participants, she heard a resounding, “Its muscle, let it go!” from the rest of the women physicians. This is the type of support and encouragement you get with my group programs. Instead of worrying about the weight you've gained, I encourage you to start feeling curious about what your body can do, instead. Be curious and find joy in your authentic body instead of trying to change it to be something it's not.   Transformations Take Time, but You're Worth It Body transformations don't happen overnight. They take time, dedication, and the will to not give up when you don't immediately see results. One of the biggest takeaways from my programs is that the journey IS happy! Embrace it! Part of the journey is finding joy in the grey zone and knowing that there are so many more transformations happening than just the physical ones you can see.  Invest in yourself. See your worth.

I'm just not inherently an ectomorph or a small human. I'm about average in build but I put muscle on very quickly. Muscle weighs quite a bit, so it doesn't matter what your body composition is if you're tied to a number on a scale.” [4:36] “Maybe I can really start to love myself for who I am rather than constantly battling whatever image I have ingrained into me about how I should be small or thin or skinny or tiny or some weak damsel in distress. I'm really comfortable carrying things by myself.” [8:58] “On my own, my focus is trying to spend more time in the present moment, accepting and non-judging, and working on meditation and mindfulness. But when I work with Ali, I take to the next step. Nobody's perfect. I still have millions of thoughts every day that take me away from the goals I have and want to achieve, but when I bring those to Ali, she helps me redirect and refocus.” [13:52] “I had friends, I had family, I had lots of success, and I even had lots of happiness, but I had trouble truly embracing joy. I told myself for so long that ‘I'll be happy when.' I was always trying to reach the next goal, being on that hamster wheel, constantly feeling that this was my reality, instead of learning the most important thing that I have learned in my time with Ali. The journey is the happy.” [21:01] “I'm worth it and I'm enough. Sometimes those are hard words to believe, but I still keep saying them.” [27:13] “Isolation is super common with women physicians, we feel like we're alone. The community that Ali builds proves otherwise.” [21:33] “When you invest in something for yourself, you're doing it for all the people that you love because you're committing to being the best version of you. That's when you can really embrace all the joy and all the things that you have in your life.” [33:56]   Resources Mentioned 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 100: Wisdom from my 32-Year Self-Experiment Episode 108: Dr. Weili Gray on Embracing Her Ectomorph Body Type Episode 107: Optimal Health Challenge Pearls

Having a growth mindset, prioritizing strength training, knowing your body type, and practicing regular self-care are the keys to taking control of your life. I'm joined by Dr. Weili Gray, a sleep and lifestyle physician who recently took one of my programs, to talk about the benefits she's seen in her life since adopting my recommended practices.   Key Takeaway Prioritize your self-care to improve all areas of your life. What do you do for your health, fitness, and well-being?   About Dr. Weili Gray Dr. Weili Gray is a board-certified sleep, integrative, and lifestyle medicine physician who practices in Vermont. She is also a Registered Life Planner and the founder of Dare to Dream Physician, where she offers life planning and hosts a weekly podcast.   The Importance of Body Types and Strength Training I've just met Dr. Weili Gray, but honestly, I feel like I've known her for a long time. What I love most about her, and it's evident in this conversation, is how much she values her self-care. She also has a growth mindset which helps her continuously develop herself, her life, and her goals. Dr. Gray says that she never used to prioritize strength training, but now that she does include it in her movement routine, she's seeing the benefits across her life. Not only did she learn about the importance of strength training during my program, but Dr. Gray also learned about different body types! She really stresses how much her knowledge of her own body's needs developed when she started understanding the different body types out there. She also learned that actually making time for exercise is so beneficial to her as an ectomorph, the naturally slender body type.   Prioritize Yourself for More Control in Your Life Dr. Gray explains why she prioritizes investing in herself. She says that it makes her a better person all around - she feels she improves in her roles as mom, wife, and physician when she practices self-care and puts her own needs first. When she practices regular self-care, including her four days of exercise, Dr. Gray says she feels more in control of her life. She's less stressed and better equipped to focus on everything she has going on. Dr. Gray also explains how she includes her family in her self-care routine and helps encourage their health and wellness, too. Finally, we talk about the importance of adopting a growth mindset. It's fine to know this stuff in principle, but to actually put it into practice takes dedication and a desire to grow as a person. Have you adopted a growth mindset to improve your life? How often do you include your self-care practices in your routine? What do you do? Let me know what works best for you in the comments on the episode page!   In This Episode  How strength training is a tool for wellness [4:45] The impact of learning about different body types [6:00] What happens when you make time to exercise [9:00] How investing in yourself impacts your goals and plans [18:00] How practicing self-care helps you feel more in control of your life [19:45] What happens when you include your family in your self-care journey [21:30] The importance of adopting a growth mindset [27:00]   Quotes “What I learned and solidified in your program is that running is great, it's good to move your body. Any kind of movement, even walking, as you say. But that's not enough. It doesn't address all the muscle groups. This was my lightbulb moment. This is my new step. I'm going to uplevel myself as an athlete. Not only am I going to be a runner, but I'm also so excited that [strength training] is going to be my goal!” [16:11] “I already feel that I am a better person. I'm a better mom, I'm a better wife, I'm a better physician because I actually feel and prioritize, at least four days a week, my self-care. Really putting that first is so important.” [18:48] “The little things that we do every day add up to how we feel. I want to continue that!” [19:38] “Once you find your why, it's so much easier to make decisions, prioritize your life, design your life in a way that's in full alignment with who you are, what you really want, and why you're on Earth.” [30:28]   Resources Mentioned Listen to the Dare to Dream Physician Podcast Find Dr. Weili Gray Online Follow Dr. Weili Gray on Facebook | Instagram | 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 96: Dr. Shillcutt on Discovering Self-Love Through Boundaries Episode 106: Honoring Your Authentic Body Episode 105: Go All-In On You

Meet today's guest, Dr. Weili Gray, a board-certified sleep and lifestyle medicine physician who practices in the Northeast. She is also the founder of Dare to Dream Physician, where she offers life planning and hosts a weekly podcast. In this episode, Dr. Weili highlights the idea of knowing your "why?", which she describes as "Life Planning", to identify the true drive behind most of our daily pursuits in life, and to achieve the dream life of fulfillment and satisfaction. Notes Although externally it seemed that things were perfect for Dr. Weili but she didn't feel that way especially with changes at her workplace following the pandemic. She signed up for a Life Planning class out of curiosity and had an awe-inspiring experience. This was how she got into Life-planning. The clarity from the experience helped her get over those feelings she had earlier on. Although a lot of people describe their reasons for work as their kids or financial security, it is important to keep asking why. The more you ask, the deeper and more heartfelt your answers are, and the more warmth you feel in your heart. For Dr. Weili she has always loved connecting with patients but over time, with the demands of medical school and other aspects of her work, she started to lose track of her 'why?'. She had to remind herself not to get bogged down chasing perfection in those other aspects but to draw energy from the areas of her work that she enjoyed. "I think it's fully possible to be an engaged physician and follow my ‘why?'" About Life-planning: Life-planning can be formal during sessions but may also include daily practices and questions. There are 3 questions used in Life-planning;Firstly, if you were financially secure, what would your life look like? This question aims at uncovering the 4 main resources people have including money, time, energy, and talent. Once you figure out your 'why?', the next step is to start to align those 4 resources with it. While a lot of people focus so much on the limited nature of money, they forget that all the other resources are also limited and need to be harnessed efficiently. The second question: “if your doctor told you that you only had 5-10years to live, what would you do in the time you had left to live? How would this change how you prioritize things in your life?” The third question: if your doctor told you that you only had one day to live, what feelings arise as you confront your mortality? Here you ask yourself, 'what did I miss? who did I not get to be? And what did I not get to do?' The goal of these questions is to give deep insight from reflection Rules of thumb in facilitating people to get their dream life:The first step is that they have to know what their dream life is. This is achieved through the reflective exercises in Life Planning and they will feel the energy surge driving them to go for it. The next step is that to go for it, they have to step out of their comfort zone, which would make them different from other people around them. Dr. Weili has had to step out of her comfort zone to start running, motivated by the clarity she has about being in shape. Although it was out of her comfort zone, she has started to see the benefits in her personal life and family interactions.

As female physicians, negotiation is a process that stirs up some uncertainty, hesitation and even intimidation. It feels like something only businesspeople do, and that advocating for ourselves is the opposite of what a “good doctor” should do.    This is reflective of the socialization we've received, and we need to do a hard reset to our mindset to get comfortable with negotiation, and actually feel confident about it.    In today's episode, I'm joined by a physician who went from being afraid of negotiation to straight up killing it at the negotiating table, and today she shares her secrets!   What pivotal moments made the shift possible? How did she start seeing the merits of negotiation? In today's episode, Board Certified Sleep Physician, Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine expert, life planner, and founder of Dare to Dream Physician, Weili Gray reveals how she changed her mindset on negotiation. Three Things You'll Learn In This Episode    - The mindset block that makes negotiating difficult As physicians, we're taught to show up and make everyone's lives easier, so negotiating feels like stirring up unnecessary trouble. Why does this hold us back from getting what we deserve?    - How a physician realized that negotiation is a good thing Life has a way of reminding us what our priorities are. What are the life-altering moments that put Weili Gray on the path to advocating for herself? - Why you should own what you bring to the table Even on your first day out of training, you already offer a tremendous amount of value. How can you actually start believing that?     Guest Bio    Dr. Weili Gray is a Board Certified Sleep Physician, and an Integrative and Lifestyle Medicine expert, and a life planner. She is the founder of Dare to Dream Physician.  Many physicians today are feeling overwhelmed and unfulfilled living a busy life based on someone else's terms and expectations.    Dr. Gray helps physicians figure out what they really want out of life and how to make their dream life come true sooner than they ever imagined.    Life Planning with Dare to Dream Physician visit https://daretodreamphysician.com/.
