DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast. Doctors devote their lives to caring for others, but the time has come to prioritize the health and wellness of physicians. As physicians, we make decisions every day about how to prioritize our time, energy, focus, attention, and money. Our lives are in our own hands. But are we making these as conscious choices or are we satisfied with speeding through life in default mode? Hosts Jen Barna MD, Coach Gabriella Dennery MD and Master Certified Coach Jill Farmer interview physicians to explore ways to embrace life AND a medical career, some who’ve chosen a path less traveled and others who have optimized their lives on a traditional medical career path. As coaches from the DocWorking team, Gabriella and Jill discuss actionable tips from their experience coaching physicians. We also invite guests on business, leadership, building financial independence, and other pertinent topics to physicians. If you’re a physician, we want to hear your story! Please email Jen Barna at podcast@docworking.com to be considered. Want to learn more? https://www.DocWorking.com

"There's a term that we use quite a bit called Strength Span. Everyone's using the term health span, but there's this concept of strength span, which is, how long can you maintain your strength into your later life? Which will help with a lot of this as well. That was one area. That person lost over 30 pounds in about six months by implementing these minor adjustments in nutrition, minor adjustments in sleep, minor adjustments in exercise. But when you stack them together, it only didn't just affect the physical, but it also affects the emotional and the mental." -Dr. Mark Kovacs

"Now that I think about it, I was actually slowly getting really burnt out because I had no life. I didn't really get to spend time with my family. My kids were young, so sometimes I would just go home after 7:00 with work not completed, just to see my kids and have some bedtime stories before tucking them into bed and then to do more work." -Mary Leung MD

How does eliminating chronic tinnitus relate to eliminating chronic pain and anxiety, using neuroplasticity to retrain the brain, and learning effective ways to process emotions and stress?
What are the six steps you can apply to transform your life?
Author Peter Studenik discusses his life transforming experience, conquering fear and overcoming debilitating chronic tinnitus. The conversation starts with Peter telling the story of how his symptoms began, how he spent years seeing doctor after doctor, to no avail.
Peter shares his personal journey, and walks us through the steps he took to eliminate tinnitus completely, and reorganize his life for long term success. He discusses the challenges he faced, and the specific methods using neuroplasticity of the brain to create new neurological pathways, an approach that can also be used to conquer many forms of chronic pain and anxiety. We discuss how the method he created to cure chronic tinnitus may be extrapolated to eliminate chronic pain and chronic anxiety.
