Dr. Dael Waxman sits down with Dr. Dennis Mihale, a physician whose career has spanned clinical medicine, healthcare leadership, and corporate innovation. The conversation explores the universal challenges of professional reinvention, particularly for physicians navigating transitions between clinical and non-clinical roles. Dr. Mihaly reflects on the skills that bridge these worlds—from the interpersonal lessons learned at IBM to the resilience required in medicine—and underscores the importance of purpose, mentorship, and incremental change when stepping into the unknown.  

The discussion delves into the emotional and practical complexities of career shifts, emphasizing that fulfillment often lies at the intersection of adaptability and self-awareness. Dr. Mihale shares insights on recognizing when to pivot, the value of maintaining ties to patient care, and the power of leaning on trusted advisors during moments of uncertainty. Themes of meaning, identity, and the evolving physician role resonate throughout, offering listeners a roadmap for embracing change without losing sight of their core values.
