Podcasts about women physicians

Ever make a perfect eating plan and then rebel against it by Thursday? You're not broken. You're not self-sabotaging. You're rebelling against diet culture telling you to do shitty stuff to yourself - and that rebellious streak is actually powerful. In this episode, I explain why rebellion shows up in our eating and how to harness it so it works FOR you instead of against you. Because that same rebellious part that got you through medical school? It's trying to protect you from unfair diet rules. I'll share my empowered eating approach plus the abundance strategy that may sound backwards but eliminates the need to rebel. If you feel like you're constantly fighting yourself around food or think something's wrong with you because you can't "stick to" plans, this episode is exactly what you need. Perfect for female physicians ready to stop battling themselves around food.

Ever thought “Maybe I just won't ever be able to lose weight..”? Then this episode is for you. I'm tackling that deep fear many of us have: what if your body will never respond to weight loss efforts? Learn what to do when it feels like your body's not responding.. This isn't about plateaus where you've seen some success and it stalls - it's about that gut-level fear that maybe it's never gonna work. Most physicians who come to me share this belief: "I don't know if I'll ever be able to lose weight."

In this episode of Caring Greatly, Diane talks about the research exploring why women physicians tend to reduce work hours or leave their profession at higher rates than their male counterparts. The reasons are far more structural and cultural than biological, including differences in expectations and accountability – both on the part of fellow team members and of patients. She shares the underlying data behind this trend that point to fixes that are less about training and conformity and more centered on a shift in healthcare culture that values relationships and connection over transactions. It's an approach that generally leads to better care outcomes. Diane concludes with her perspective on how structural and policy changes can support the long-term career viability and joy in practice for women physicians and other women clinicians.  Please visit www.heartofsafetycoalition.com for links related to this episode. The views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Stryker.

Send us a textIn this episode, I explore the concept of Human Giver Syndrome, a term coined by Emily Nagoski, PhD, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, in their groundbreaking book Burnout: The Secret to Unlocking the Stress Cycle. This deeply ingrained societal expectation pressures women—especially women physicians—to be endlessly selfless, cheerful, and giving, often at the expense of their own well-being.Many of us have experienced pushback for being “too negative” or “not a teamplayer” when we've tried to meet our own needs. Today we unpack three specific ways Human Giver Syndrome shows up in the lives of women physicians: the silencing of your voice, the invisible labor of emotional support, and the relentless drive to be “perfectly” selfless. Finally, we envision what life could look like if you broke free from these expectations.In This Episode, You'll Learn:What Human Giver Syndrome is, as defined by Emily and Amelia Nagoski in Burnout.How this toxic expectation impacts women physicians and contributes to burnout.Three ways it shows up in your life—and how to recognize the patterns.Your plan for breaking free of Human Giver Syndrome; there's hope!Resources Mentioned:Unbound: Women Physicians Reclaiming Their LivesIf you're ready to break free from burnout and reclaim your life, check out Unbound: Women Physicians Reclaiming Their Lives. This transformative coaching program is tailored specifically for women physicians, helping you rewrite the narrative of self-sacrifice and step into a life of fulfillment and joy.

The Science Behind Why Fast Weight Loss Isn't the Answer Host and Obesity Expert, Ali Novitsky MD, is thrilled to be back with you today. If you saw the title "Lose Weight Fast," you might be wondering what's going on with Dr. Ali these days. Rest assured, nothing has changed - today's episode is all about why losing weight fast is not a good idea. If you're struggling to believe that slower weight loss is better, you're in the right place. The Misconception of Rapid Weight Loss We live in a society that conditions us to believe faster is better, especially when it comes to weight loss. We're promised happiness, better relationships, and an overall better life if we lose weight quickly. However, this is far from the truth. Fast weight loss is not a great goal because it doesn't align with the journey of adopting a healthy lifestyle. Sustainable weight loss happens naturally over time. Muscles and Mindset Program Announcement Before diving deeper, Ali has an exciting announcement. On June 17th, she's launching the Muscles and Mindset program. This year-long program offers three new workouts every week, tailored to different fitness levels. Whether you're a beginner needing chair support or an advanced athlete, there's something for everyone. The program is incredibly affordable, and you can get on the waitlist through the link in the show notes. Why Fast Weight Loss is a Bad Idea Physical Disservice Fast weight loss can be physically detrimental. When you lose weight quickly, you often lose muscle mass along with fat, which lowers your basal metabolic rate (BMR). This makes it harder to lose more weight and easier to gain it back. Additionally, rapid weight loss can leave you feeling weak, dehydrated, and generally unwell. Emotional Disservice Emotionally, fast weight loss can be devastating. Hunger can make you moody and anxious, disrupting your emotional stability. This is because our biological response to hunger is to increase anxiety and restlessness, driving us to find food. Mental Disservice Mentally, losing weight quickly doesn't allow for the necessary mindset changes. You won't develop a better relationship with your body or food in just 30 days. Sustainable weight loss requires time to establish new thinking patterns and habits. Personal Experience with Quick Fix Diets Dr. Ali shared her personal journey with dieting, starting from the age of six. She went through numerous diets, including an extreme 800-calorie diet at the age of 12, which led to rapid weight loss and subsequent weight gain. Her experience underscores the importance of a sustainable, long-term approach to weight loss. Optimal GLP-1 Weight Loss Program For those on GLP-1 medications, Dr. Ali offers the Optimal GLP-1 Weight Loss Program. This program combines medication management with nutrition, exercise, and mindset coaching. It's designed to help you maintain muscle, lose body fat, and build a supportive community. Transform® 8.0 for Women Physicians If you're a woman physician, check out Ali's Transform® 8.0 program, starting on July 9th. They offer a scholarship application to make this program accessible. Optimizing your health can significantly benefit your patients, and Ali is here to support you in that journey. Conclusion In summary, fast weight loss is not the answer. Sustainable, long-term weight loss is the way to go. We're living longer, and it's never too late to start your journey to better health. Thank you for joining Ali Novitsky MD today, and until next time, take care!
