  5. Marriage Conversations No One Warned You About (Coffee Walk Edition)

    JAN 12

    Marriage Conversations No One Warned You About (Coffee Walk Edition)

    In this episode of Coffee Walk MD, Dr. Kendall and Dr. Bankhead sit down for an honest, funny, and deeply real conversation about marriage, burnout, current events, and who they’re becoming in this season of life. They start by explaining what a coffee walk really is — a simple but intentional way to create space for meaningful communication in the middle of busy lives, careers, and parenting. From coffee mugs and espresso questions to serious discussions about night shift work being classified as a carcinogen, this episode blends humor with depth. Brittany opens up about the toll night shifts take on the body, while Brian shares a vivid dream that turns into a surprisingly insightful reflection. In current events, they discuss a tragic and unsettling story involving a dentist and the larger, often overlooked issue of violence against healthcare workers — followed by a lighter shift into Winter Olympics excitement and why watching sports (and judging from the couch) is oddly calming. The conversation turns candid during the segment “The Thing No One Warned You About”, where they talk openly about marriage — including losing boundaries, emotional restraint, and how loving someone doesn’t mean you never want to scream into a pillow. They close by reflecting on who they thought they’d be versus who they’re becoming, touching on careers, creativity, motherhood, teaching, and redefining success in midlife. As always, this Coffee Walk is about real conversations, connection, and letting things be honest — even when they’re awkward. 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube Follow along: Instagram: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDTikTok: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDYouTube: Coffee Walk MDDisclaimer: Any medical information discussed is just that — information.

    Coffee Walk Conversations: Marriage, Money Fears & Letting Kids Say the Quiet Parts Out Loud

    In this episode of Coffee Walk MD, Brian and Brittany kick off the new year with an honest, unfiltered conversation about marriage, money anxiety, modern culture, and why coffee walks have become such a grounding ritual in their relationship. They talk about what’s been on their minds lately — from chronic dry eye struggles and Substack dreams to concerns about the economy feeling like a “death rally.” Along the way, they dive into current events, reflect on entrepreneurship and physician burnout, and share what they’re dreaming about for the year ahead. The episode takes a heart-melting turn when their daughter, Tinsley, joins the conversation — delivering laugh-out-loud honesty about having doctors as parents, coffee preferences, hopscotch grievances, and big dreams for her future. They wrap things up by pulling back the curtain on business ownership, the emotional weight physicians carry in the emergency department, and the reality of social support gaps in the U.S. healthcare system. As always, this Coffee Walk is about connection, communication, and saying the things that usually stay in your head. 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube Follow along: Instagram: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDTikTok: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDYouTube: Coffee Walk MDDisclaimer: Any medical information discussed is just that — information.

    Marriage, Miscommunication & the Elf on the Shelf Meltdown

    In this week’s episode of Coffee Walk MD, Brian and Brittany dive into one of the most chaotic and relatable conversations yet. From reheating the same latte three times, to forgetting to move the Elf on the Shelf (and dealing with the fallout), this episode is a hilarious look at marriage, communication, and the tiny daily moments that can make or break a morning. They cover: • What’s On Their Minds: The annual Elf-on-the-Shelf fatigue, mom-rage pajama drama, and why reheating coffee is basically a parenting sport. • Current Events: A wildly unpredictable shift from military headlines to Bethenny Frankel launching a new dating app — because this is how their marriage conversations actually go. • Surprise Topic: “Who Does It Better: Christmas Gifts?” where Brittany reveals her secret gift-giving formula that might as well be a masterclass. • Dreams: Their mountain-lake-house fantasy takes a hit, and they unpack what it means to navigate setbacks together as a couple. • Would You Rather: Family trips vs. international travel — and the guilt, reality, and emotional honesty behind both choices. This episode is real, funny, chaotic in the best way, and a perfect snapshot of how they keep their relationship strong through honest conversation. 🎧 Listen wherever you get your podcasts: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube Follow along: Instagram: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDTikTok: @BBankheadMD | @BKendallMDYouTube: Coffee Walk MDDisclaimer: Any medical information discussed is just that — information.
