Balanced Physician: Art of Medicine, Practice of Life

Balanced Physician: Art of Medicine, Practice of Life

This show closes the gap between what we learned in med school and what we need to practice, so we can deal with the messy realities of a career in medicine, fill the holes in our training and sharpen our people skills so we can actually live the dream and have a life that feels worth all the years of sacrifice. This podcast is for physicians who are driven to grow—those who strive for more in their careers and lives. We tackle the challenge of sustaining personal and professional growth while practicing full-time medicine. Each episode delivers expert insights and brass-tacks, immediately actionable advice that ensures you leave better equipped than when you started listening. Covering a wide range of topics that impact every aspect of a physician’s life—in and out of the exam room—we help you keep advancing toward your best self. We’re diving into the real-life questions that make or break your days (and nights): How do I talk to my patients without sounding like a robot—or losing my mind? What’s the trick to managing my team when everyone’s running on fumes? Can I actually improve patient satisfaction without selling my soul? Why does work stress show up at home, and how do I fix it? How do I make extra cash and still sleep at night? Burnout, moral injury… is there a way out? What’s the secret to being a great leader—and not just the boss? Do scrub colors really matter, and what’s with the eternal pager saga? Oh, and we don’t shy away from the fun, messy stuff: getting stains out of your white coat, building a brand on social media, or figuring out if ditching the white coat altogether is the move. This podcast is about being real—because medicine is hard, life is messy, and you deserve more than survival mode. Let’s laugh, learn, and figure out how to find the fulfillment you’ve been chasing. Pull up a chair, put your stethoscope down, and let’s talk. You’re not alone in this.
