There is often a real barrier between doctor and patient when it comes to discussions around weight because it is such a sensitive topic for so many.

In this episode, I’m sharing some approaches and best practices that can help doctors bridge the gap with their patients when it comes to these delicate discussions.

I’m getting vulnerable in this episode and sharing how I’ve been feeling as the release of my book is approaching.

In this episode, I’m sharing the realization I had about where my anxiety stems from, how I’m acknowledging and honoring it, and the tools I’m using to get to the other side of it without turning to food or alcohol as coping mechanisms.

In the United States, in particular, it’s not unusual for doctors to be aware of the legal ramifications of their actions, and in recent weeks there seems to have been an uptick in medico-legal fears among doctors. We all know there is a line between what is considered malpractice and what is not, and we all go to great lengths to ensure that we stay on the right side of that line. Despite that, many of us still struggle with the fear of potential legal recourse, and this can affect how we show up for our patients and for ourselves. In this episode, I’m sharing my thoughts on how to recognize and overcome the fears we have so that we can be the best version of ourselves.

In this episode, I’m talking about everyone’s favorite subject: failure!

Listen in as I share how failure can completely shake your identity, what needs to happen to flip the way of thinking about failure to a way that serves you, and why experiencing failure does not negate future success (despite what we’ve all been led to believe).
