DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast Jen Barna MD

"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
In this episode of DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast, we hear first hand how our guest, Coach Mary Leung MD, went from working overtime to finishing her charting and getting home on time, resetting her work-life balance as a physician.

Tune in to hear steps you can take, starting today, to finish your charting and get home on time, adding balance in your life by transforming how you live and work.

Today we rewind back to one of our most popular episodes on DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast.
“Your life becomes fused to what we do and it’s very hard, especially for physicians or healthcare workers, to say, ‘Well, you know, I’ve done this all my life and maybe that’s not what I need to do now.’” -Simon Maltais MD Ph.D.
In this episode, Dr. Jen Barna has a very honest conversation about burnout and recovery with Cardiac Surgeon and author of the book, Healthcare Anonymous: Put Yourself First to Avoid Anxiety, Addiction, and Burnout, Dr. Simon Maltais. You would be hard pressed to find someone more driven or accomplished in his field than Dr. Maltais. At the top of his game and publishing a new article nearly every two weeks, Dr. Maltais realized that he was experiencing burnout. Dr. Maltais shares his story of taking a step back, considering leaving medicine, changing his definition of success, and ultimately creating a hybrid way to continue the work that he loves while making more time for himself and his family. Tune in to hear an honest and candid story of burnout and recovery and hear what Dr. Maltais believes is the future of medicine.

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.
