E109: The Emotional Domain of Risks

From early relationships to midlife pair bonding, social expectations, identity, and evolving desires shape the decisions people make about love and connections. In the emotional domain of risks, Lisa Diamond, PhD, joins Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, to explore the vulnerability, uncertainty, and courage it takes to form intimate relationships. From the paradox of endless dating choices to the deeply human need for connection, the conversation examines why building relationships today can feel harder than ever. If connection is essential to our well-being, what keeps us from reaching for it?

E108: The Physical Domain of Risks

Every day, women weigh risks—whether it is deciding to start a medication, pursue a medical procedure, invest in their health, or even consider pregnancy. Yet the way humans assess risk is rarely simple or purely logical. Fear, reward, hormones, life experience, and social expectations all shape how we interpret danger and opportunity. In the physical domain of risk—the first episode in the 7 Domains of Risk series—Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, explore how our brains and bodies calculate risk in real time. From evolutionary survival instincts to modern medical decision-making, they unpack why some people are naturally cautious while others lean toward calculated risk-taking. Hormones, stress, development, and even early-life experiences influence our tolerance for risk—particularly for women navigating reproductive health, pregnancy, and medical choices.

S8E15: The Resident and Medical Student Dynamic

Medical students and residents work side by side every day—but they often experience the same environment in completely different ways. Through honest stories and shared experiences, Lilly, Sanila, and Austen reflect on the unique dynamic between medical students and residents during clinical training. From the student perspective, there is pressure to perform, contribute, and prove you belong. From the resident side, it is about managing patients, staying afloat, and teaching at the same time. Somewhere in the middle of those competing priorities is where real learning happens.

Learn why osteoporosis is more than just an "old person's problem" and what actions you (or your kids, or your grandma) can take today to keep bones strong tomorrow.

E106: The Environmental Domain of Family Planning

Where you live—and what surrounds you—can quietly shape your family planning journey long before you ever step into a clinic. From the air you breathe to the health care systems within driving distance, your environment plays a powerful and often underestimated role in fertility, contraception, and pregnancy outcomes. In the environmental domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, explore how both biological and geographic environments influence reproductive health. Joined by urologist Kelli Gross, MD, the conversation examines male fertility, environmental toxins, air pollution, lifestyle factors, and the growing questions around sperm health. In the second half, David Turok, MD, discusses how geography, provider training, and access barriers shape contraceptive options—particularly in rural and frontier communities.

E107: The Spiritual Domain of Family Planning

Family planning decisions are never purely medical—they are shaped by belief systems, moral frameworks, cultural traditions, and deeply personal values. Questions about contraception, fertility treatment, and pregnancy care intersect with faith in ways that are both grounding and complicated. In the spiritual domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, are joined by Margaret Battin, PhD, distinguished professor of philosophy and medical ethicist, to examine where personal belief meets professional responsibility. They explore how clinicians honor their own moral compass while fulfilling obligations to patients, how religious teachings can both guide and constrain reproductive choices, and how individuals reconcile faith with lived reality.

E105: The Financial Domain of Family Planning

Informed family planning can influence life trajectories. Historically, children were considered economic assets: laborers, caregivers in old age, and contributors to survival in agricultural societies. But as industrialization reshaped society, survival no longer depended on large families, and financial realities shifted, making family planning a key determinant of long-term economic stability. In the financial domain of family planning, Kirtly Jones, MD, and Katie Ward, PhD, are joined by Shireen Ghorbani, president and CEO of Planned Parenthood of Utah, to discuss how economic factors influence reproductive choices and outcomes. The conversation highlights the critical role of education, intention, and access in ensuring that individuals can have children when—and if—they choose. Whether contraception or infertility support, financial foresight and accessible health care can empower individuals to shape their futures.

In medicine, the finish line always seems to move. Sanila and Hạ are joined by third-year medical student Puja Batchu to explore the culture of constant milestones in medical training. Achievement does not always bring the satisfaction expected. When success becomes routine, and the next evaluation is always around the corner, it can be difficult to pause and celebrate progress.
