Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson

Sharee Johnson

This is Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, where you’ll hear healthcare professionals and others sharing their stories of recalibrating life when the unexpected happened. I'm your host Sharee Johnson, psychologist coach, meditation teacher, author and mother. As a psychologist and coach I've been listening deeply to people’s stories in therapy and coaching for 35 years. I've come to believe two things about people. The first is, having witnessed so many incredible stories of hope, adaptability and human capacity, I truly believe that we are ALL capable of so much more than we think we are. In times of challenge humans have demonstrated that, over and over again. Here on the Recalibrating podcast you will get to hear amazing stories of healthcare professionals and others pivoting, overcoming, and recalibrating their lives. The second thing the research and my experiences as a psychologist have shown me, is that humans need other people, when we have support around us, when we tell each other our stories, when we connect through the reality of living our lives, we do much better than when we pull back and hide what’s really going on for us. On this podcast we are going to unearth and amplify what helps us as humans, individually and collectively to recalibrate in ways that help us change, grow, even surprise ourselves when life throws us a curve ball. We want to talk about the value of change in our lives. This podcast offers healthcare professionals the chance to be inspired and encouraged to meet the unexpected in their life with grace, skills and a belief in their own human capacity. Life is full of opportunities to recalibrate, with the right mindset, the right resources, the right community. Thank you for adding your voice to the conversation, for sharing your stories with us.

Discover practical wisdom on self-care, mentorship, and why broadening diversity strengthens the profession—and the lives it touches. SHOW NOTES: “Even though we look different and come from different backgrounds, we just want to belong. To feel like we’re in a space that accepts our individuality and all that comes with us.” — Anei Ochan-Thou 27:11 Key Takeaways: Representation matters: Feeling both invisible and hyper-visible impacts wellbeing and professional identity. Agency & servant leadership: Dr Ochan-Thou exemplifies using personal experience to open doors for others, fostering inclusion and opportunity. Addressing micro aggressions: Meaningful allyship is built on intentional actions—pronouncing names correctly, affirming belonging, and supporting diversity in selection panels. Mentorship & community: Building supportive networks is transformative—success is collective, not individual. Challenges of medical training: Loneliness, hidden costs, and frequent transitions reinforce the importance of empathy and robust support systems. Self-care is multidimensional: Nurture your other identities and relationships outside medicine; creativity, relationships, and presence are vital for sustainability.

    EPISODE 17:A/Prof. Jeremy Grummet — Vulnerability, Empathy, and Changing the Landscape of Prostate Cancer

    EPISODE 17: A/Prof. Jeremy Grummet — Vulnerability, Empathy, and Changing the Landscape of Prostate Cancer EPISODE DESCRIPTION: In this powerful episode Sharee sits down with A/Prof. Jeremy Grummet, urologist, researcher, and Director of Urology at the Alfred Hospital in Melbourne. Together, they unpack the winding path from junior doctor to department head, the invisible burdens clinicians carry, the nuances of sharing personal struggle, and the revolution underway in prostate cancer diagnosis and treatment. With honesty and warmth, Jeremy opens up about supporting family through mental illness, seeking help for his own anxiety, and the critical importance of balance, mentorship, humour, and systemic change in medicine.Essential listening for clinicians, patients, and anyone striving to humanise healthcare. SHOW NOTES: “Empathy is really the greatest human strength. It’s how you use it that’s important… vulnerability is not weakness. To demonstrate your vulnerability—within context, in a trusted environment with the right people—is strength.” — A/Prof. Jeremy Grummet Key Takeaways: Leadership and Longevity: Seniority comes not just with time, but with lived experience shared with others, building trust and shifting the culture of medicine. Nuance of Vulnerability: Sharing personal struggles can open doors for others and create cultural change, but choosing the right time and safe context is vital. Seeking Help Is Strength: Clinicians and carers need care. Building a network of support—including outside medicine—can be life-changing. Empathy Reimagined: Cognitive empathy helps clinicians connect while maintaining their well-being; balancing compassionate action with emotional boundaries helps prevent burnout. Revolution in Prostate Cancer: Advances such as MRI-based screening and focal therapy are transforming diagnosis and care, aiming to reduce overtreatment and support equity in men’s health. Humour and Human Connection: Amid life-and-death work, laughter and lightness are essential values for resilience and sustainability. Further Inspiration: On Prioritizing Mental Health: Proactive check-ins with psychologists/coaches can build resilience for when (not if) life gets tough. On Mentorship: Look for positive and “inverse” mentors; learning from less healthy examples can also be formative. On Systemic Change: New PSA guidelines and national screening efforts seek both to minimize harm and reduce inequity in prostate cancer care.   Resources Mentioned: Small Giants Academy: Personal exploration and leadership development program  BJUI Compass: Latest research on focal therapy for prostate cancer by A/Pro.

    EPISODE 16: Dr. Sabine Fonderson – Self-Leadership, Burnout, and the Art of Human-Centred Medicine

    EPISODE 16: Dr. Sabine Fonderson – Self-Leadership, Burnout, and the Craft of Human-Centred Medicine   EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What if true recalibration means daring to say, “Non-negotiable. I’m out” so you can embrace all the facets of your life?In this episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee is joined by Dr. Sabine Fonderson—GP, healthcare entrepreneur, global citizen, and innovator—for a candid conversation about navigating burnout, building boundaries, creative entrepreneurship, raising a daughter, and bridging healthcare systems across continents.Sabine shares insights on honouring your energy and desires, experimenting with AI and technology in general practice, and finding leadership not just in systems—but within yourself. A powerful exploration of what it takes to sustain, adapt, and bring your whole self to medicine and life. SHOW NOTES:“Your body is telling you every day what’s wrong and what’s right. As doctors, please remember that you are humans first.” — Dr. Sabine Fonderson Key Takeaways: Self-leadership starts with listening to your body and acting on early signals of burnout or overwhelm. Boundaries are essential: declare what is non-negotiable in your work, parenting, and personal wellness. Recalibration is continuous—sometimes it’s returning to exercise, other times it’s pausing to reset your entire approach to work. Vulnerability and openness about struggles invite realignment, support, and innovation. Different systems have unique pressures. Adaptation is a skill. Embracing technology and AI can create efficiency and bring joy back into clinical care, but must be balanced with responsibility and human connection. Diverse interests and entrepreneurial pursuits in medicine are not only possible, but vital for sustainable fulfilment. Resources & Highlights Mentioned: TED Talk by Dr. Sabine FondersonDr. Fonderson explores the “art of medicine” as a craft grounded in attentive listening and patient empowerment. Book: Atomic Habits by James ClearInspired Sabine’s small, consistent habit changes during a period of major upheaval. Expat Health ClinicSabine’s practice focuses on supporting expatriate patients to navigate the Dutch healthcare system, making it more accessible, personalized care and innovative digital tools.

    EPISODE 15: Sharee Johnson – Why Doctor Wellbeing Changes Everything

    EPISODE 14: Sharee Johnson – Why Doctor Wellbeing Changes Everything   EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What if the path to sustainable healthcare starts with supporting the people at its core?In this solo episode, Sharee Johnson—psychologist, coach, and creator of the Recalibrate program—unpacks over a decade of experience working intimately with doctors across Australia, New Zealand, and the USA.From the unique pressures faced by medical professionals to the transformative power of coaching, Sharee  explores how investing in doctor wellbeing leads to better care for patients, healthier teams, and a system where everyone can thrive.A thoughtful reflection about courage, culture shifts, and the role of empathy, skills development, and genuine connection in medicine and beyond. SHOW NOTES:“If you know that investing in your own wellbeing is going to give you a longer career, happier career, more satisfying career… then why wouldn’t you make that investment?” — Sharee Johnson   Key Takeaways: Doctors face immense pressures—career-long time constraints, perfectionism, and high expectations both at work and home. Medicine’s culture often discourages vulnerability, making it hard for doctors to seek help or admit struggles. Coaching provides a forward-focused, skill-building space for doctors, distinct from counselling or therapy, to develop clarity, effective communication, emotional intelligence, and resilience. Change is happening: younger doctors are more willing to seek support, and cultural attitudes about help-seeking and reflective practice are shifting for the better. Investing in doctor wellbeing produces a 'virtuous circle'—enhanced satisfaction leads to improved patient care, which in turn feeds professional joy and system sustainability. Skills like empathy and trust don’t happen automatically—they require safe, or as doctors suggest, “brave” spaces for learning and practice. Reflective practice and ongoing community support are key to long-term growth and fulfilment in healthcare roles.   Resources Mentioned: Recalibrate Program for Doctors: An immersive developmental experience designed to support medical professionals in recalibrating their mindset, skills, and approach to work and life. Coaching for Doctors: hub for Sharee's individual and group coaching, retreats, events and resources for doctors and other healthcare professionals. Related Topics: Emotional intelligence in healthcare The impact of medical culture on wellbeing, and wellbeing on medical culture Building skills for difficult conversations Reflective practice as a core competency   Our theme music is "Caribbean" by Zambolino, sourced from FreeToUse.com/music/zambolino/caribbean.__Disclaimer:The content in this podcast is not intended as a substitute for professional medical or psychological advice.

  5. EPISODE 14: Dr. Vijay Roach – Kindness, Capacity, and the Courage to Change

    EPISODE 14: Dr. Vijay Roach – Kindness, Capacity, and the Courage to Change

    EPISODE 14: Dr. Vijay Roach – Kindness, Capacity, and the Courage to Change EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What happens when a life dedicated to medicine, leadership, and family demands constant recalibration? In this episode Sharee sits down with Dr. Vijay Roach – obstetrician, gynaecologist, college president, and perinatal mental health advocate – for an honest conversation about compassion, humility, and the lifelong art of adapting to change. From confronting personal and professional imperfections to building cultures of kindness in medicine and home, this episode explores the necessity of accepting our humanity—and the courage to reset, again and again.   SHOW NOTES:“What I learned was that I was so consumed and busy and beyond capacity with all of the work stuff, that I hadn’t paid attention to this, which was my family and my friends and the people who I love…” — Dr. Vijay Roach Key Takeaways: Everyone recalibrates. Whether you’re a young doctor saying “yes” to opportunity or a leader reshaping legacy, change is not only inevitable but essential. Kindness matters—systemically and personally. The culture of medicine thrives when we become more human and less transactional, showing care to colleagues and ourselves. Perinatal mental health is for everyone. Dr. Vijay Roach shares the personal journey behind his advocacy with the Gidget Foundation and why open conversations save lives. Vulnerability isn’t weakness. When senior doctors share their struggles, it normalizes challenges like imposter syndrome and fosters psychological safety for all. Capacity is a real limit. Balancing career, family, and self-care demands honest reflection about what to say yes—and no—to at different life stages. Service and leadership evolve. Servant leadership, humility, empathy, and the willingness to step aside when it’s time, empower both individuals and institutions. It’s okay to change your story. Permission to question, recalibrate, rest, and pursue new interests is vital at every stage, even (or especially) for leaders who set the tone. Resources Mentioned: Gidget Foundation: Championing awareness, support, and systemic change in perinatal mental health. RANZCOG: Royal Australian and New Zealand College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists – leadership, advocacy, and support for women’s healthcare. On “Hi, my name is…” Campaign: Founded by Dr Kate Granger in Normalizing human introductions in healthcare, inspired by a movement for greater connection and compassion. Servant Leadership – Robert Greenleaf: A formative concept in Dr. Roach’s leadership journey.

    EPISODE 13: Dr. Eric Levi – Purpose, Humanity, and Recalibrating Your Role in Medicine

    EPISODE 2: Dr. Eric Levi – Purpose, Humanity, and Recalibrating Your Role in Medicine EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What sustains you when the demands of medicine seem relentless—and how do you keep realigning with meaning through seasons of change?In this inspiring conversation, Sharee Johnson welcomes Dr. Eric Levi—academic otolaryngologist, head and neck surgeon, educator, leader, and advocate for wellbeing in medicine. Together, they explore recalibrating identity, working with uncertainty, the hidden costs and rewards of a life in surgery, and why finding joy in medicine is often a side effect of purposeful work and community.If you've ever wondered how senior clinicians reckon with regrets, tough transitions, work-life tensions, and the ongoing human journey behind the mask of expertise—this is your invitation to pause, reflect, and reconnect with your “why.” SHOW NOTES: “Joy is the secondary side effect of purpose…What I’m looking for is not—I don’t necessarily come to work wanting to be happy. I want to be useful. And when I feel that I’m being useful, that’s when I get the joy.” — Dr. Eric Levi 32:26 Key Takeaways: Purpose anchors resilience: Recalibrating involves clarifying your sense of purpose, especially through transitions, setbacks, or routine pressures (32:26). Identity evolves: Expect—and welcome—detours in training, specialty, or personal life. Let your ‘why’ guide recalibration, not just external demands (06:33, 16:32). Wellbeing is relational: Seek out mentorship, build community, and remember you’re not alone in the challenges or emotional toll of clinical life (09:01, 41:45). The art of leadership is everyday kindness: Small moments of connection (like offering coffee or asking a colleague about their day) foster trust, psychological safety, and teamwork in high-pressure settings (33:15). Work-life regrets are real: Even seasoned consultants contend with sacrifices and shifting priorities. Honest conversations about regret open space for authenticity and healing (27:03). Educational and systemic curiosity matter: Pursuing broad learning—including administration, public health, and understanding systems—can empower clinicians to bridge gaps and foster change (10:35). Meaning and “soul” still matter in medicine: Joy, sustainability, and impact are grounded in community, narrative, and connection with something greater than the daily grind (50:42, 53:07). Resources Mentioned: Operating with Respect – The Royal Australasian College of Surgeons’ program to address workplace culture and hierarchy (62:42) Book Recommendation: Barack Obama’s memoir (referred to for leadership and the myth of control 24:53) Social Media for Clinicians: Dr. Eric Levi reflects on responsible, purpose-driven physician education online, including practical tips for professional boundaries (43:01) Wellbeing Advocacy and Talks: Dr. Eric Levi speaks and writes on the wellbeing of surgeons and clinicians; follow him for practical insights on the human side of medical work.

    EPISODE 12: Dr. Kieran Allen – Beyond the Binary: Mental Health, Vulnerability, and Systems Change

    EPISODE 12 Dr. Kieran Allen – Beyond the Binary: Mental Health, Vulnerability, and Systems Change   EPISODE DESCRIPTION: What if the real strength in medicine lies in our openness—not just to healing others, but to revealing our own struggles?Dr. Kieran Allen—doctor, psychiatry trainee, advocate, and storyteller who shares his lived experience of navigating mental illness while working as a clinician, in this thoughtful conversation. Together, Kieran and Sharee challenge the myth that doctors must be invulnerable and unpack how embracing vulnerability, disrupting stigma, and reimagining professional identity can transform systems of care for clinicians and patients alike. This episode is a compelling look at the complexity of recovery, support networks, and reframing the "hero's journey" in healthcare. Dr. Kieran Allen’s honesty will inspire reflection on what it means to be seen, valued, healing and human. SHOW NOTES: “These binaries are harmful, I think, and to get away from those is critical.” — Dr. Kieran Allen Key Takeaways: The myth of the doctor-patient binary: Mental illness affects everyone, including doctors. Recovery is not linear; healing journeys are unique, complex, and deserve systemic support—not just individual resilience. Deep trust and ongoing support networks (personal and professional) are critical to wellbeing and recalibration. Vulnerability is not weakness; sharing our stories can rehumanize medicine and create cultures where suffering is acknowledged, not hidden. Stigma is often unconscious—acknowledging and addressing it is a responsibility for all healthcare providers. Supervision, mentoring, and reflective practice are vital at every training and career stage, not just in crisis. True compassion—in medicine and leadership—requires presence, empathy, and the courage to advocate for systemic change. Individual and system recalibration go hand-in-hand; both are needed to prevent burnout and moral injury. Resources Mentioned: Internal Family Systems (IFS): Therapy model referenced by Dr. Kieran Allen for understanding identity, self-compassion, and recalibration. See No Bad Parts by Richard Schwartz. Stories & Advocacy: Geoff Toogood and Crazy Socks for Docs—on clinician suicide awareness and lived experience. Steve Robson—AMA past president’s writings on suicidality. https://www.beyondblue.org.au/ Dr. Ben Bravery—author of The Patient Doctor, sharing insights from dual lived experience as cancer survivor and doctor. Recalibrate Doctor Care Program: Ongoing support for wellbeing and recalibration in medical practice. The Harvard Study of Adult Development: Longitudinal study highlighting the crucial role of close, trusting relationships in wellbeing. Book Recommendation: No Bad Parts by Richard Schwartz Our theme music is "Caribbean" by Zambolino, sourced from FreeToUse.com/music/zambolino/caribbean.

  8. EPISODE 11: Victoria Lister - Speaking Up, Silencing, and Navigating the Medical Profession

    EPISODE 11: Victoria Lister - Speaking Up, Silencing, and Navigating the Medical Profession

    EPISODE 12: Victoria Lister – Speaking Up, Silencing, and Navigating the Medical Profession EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What happens when the structure meant to protect and elevate you ends up holding you back?In this episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee Johnson is joined by Victoria Lister—researcher, workplace coach, academic, and entrepreneur—to discuss the culture of silence among junior doctors, the hidden “rules” of elite professions, and the toll these unspoken expectations take on wellbeing and voice.A candid, insightful exploration of hierarchy, adaptability, recalibration, and why creating spaces for truth-telling matters for both carers and the cared-for in healthcare. SHOW NOTES:“Speak up, don’t speak up, because the clear message is you’re not to speak up about your own working conditions.” — Victoria Lister   Key Takeaways: The path to becoming a doctor is often tightly prescribed and hierarchical, but successful, fulfilling careers can follow nonlinear, adaptive routes. Silence about working conditions is even more pervasive and entrenched than silence about patient safety for junior doctors. Powerful occupational forces—hierarchy, competition, implicit rules—shape who feels safe to speak and when. Senior doctors and leaders hold the key to shifting culture and creating “pockets of enlightened leadership” where voice is possible. Cost–benefit calculations, fear of repercussions, and the myth of self-sacrifice drive much of the ongoing silence. Awareness, psychological safety, and career adaptability are tools for recalibrating both workplace and personal wellbeing. Medicine, like many professions, is shaped over centuries—meaning change is slow, but possible, with collective attention and courage.   Resources & Links Mentioned: Research on employee voice and silence in healthcare (to be published by Victoria Lister) Modern Hippocratic Oath and practitioner wellbeing:   Modern “Hippocratic oath” and physician wellbeing.  The World Medical Association Declaration of Geneva 2017 specifically includes a commitment from the doctor to actively take care of their own well being, in recognition of it having a direct impact on patient care.  The statement is part of a longer statement that can be found at the link below.   “...I WILL ATTEND TO my own health, well-being, and abilities in order to provide care of the highest standard;..." https://www.wma.net/policies-post/wma-declaration-of-geneva/ Recommended reading: Generational perspectives on medicine and working conditions Hummingbird Pie – Victoria Lister’s side hustle in activewear: Hummingbird Pie https://www.researchgate.net/publication/272191403_Contested_professional_role_boundaries_in_health_care_A_systematic_review_of_the_literature https://www.researchgate.net/publication/323433366_Failing_to_retain_a_new_generation_of_doctors_Qualitative_insights_from_a_high-income_country Our theme music is "Caribbean" by Zambolino, sourced from FreeToUse.com/music/zambolino/caribbean. __ Disclaimer:The content in this podcast is not intended as a substitute for professional medical or psychological advice.

This is Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, where you’ll hear healthcare professionals and others sharing their stories of recalibrating life when the unexpected happened. I'm your host Sharee Johnson, psychologist coach, meditation teacher, author and mother. As a psychologist and coach I've been listening deeply to people’s stories in therapy and coaching for 35 years. I've come to believe two things about people. The first is, having witnessed so many incredible stories of hope, adaptability and human capacity, I truly believe that we are ALL capable of so much more than we think we are. In times of challenge humans have demonstrated that, over and over again. Here on the Recalibrating podcast you will get to hear amazing stories of healthcare professionals and others pivoting, overcoming, and recalibrating their lives. The second thing the research and my experiences as a psychologist have shown me, is that humans need other people, when we have support around us, when we tell each other our stories, when we connect through the reality of living our lives, we do much better than when we pull back and hide what’s really going on for us. On this podcast we are going to unearth and amplify what helps us as humans, individually and collectively to recalibrate in ways that help us change, grow, even surprise ourselves when life throws us a curve ball. We want to talk about the value of change in our lives. This podcast offers healthcare professionals the chance to be inspired and encouraged to meet the unexpected in their life with grace, skills and a belief in their own human capacity. Life is full of opportunities to recalibrate, with the right mindset, the right resources, the right community. Thank you for adding your voice to the conversation, for sharing your stories with us. Sharee Johnson
