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.

    EPISODE 9: Duncan Brown – Grief, Systems, and the Power of Recalibration

    EPISODE 9: Duncan Brown – Grief, Systems, and the Power of Recalibration   EPISODE DESCRIPTION: What happens when personal tragedy and systemic failures intersect—and inspire a deeper search for meaning and change?In this moving and thought-provoking episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee is joined by Duncan Brown: researcher, organizational culture expert, and bereaved parent. Duncan shares his extraordinary journey through migration, shifting careers, devastating loss, and his quest to improve patient safety and care environments in healthcare. Together, they discuss the profound impact of cultural and systemic conditions on wellbeing—both for patients and healthcare workers. Duncan explores the balance between satisfaction and frustration at work, why kindness and resilience alone are not enough, and how real change requires attention to both individual and systemic needs. This conversation is a powerful call for compassion, systemic listening, and recalibrating what really matters in healthcare and beyond.   SHOW NOTES: “I'm a fundamentally different person to what I was before Kuan. And I think I’m a better person because I can connect with people at a much deeper level. There is no human emotion that frightens me anymore.” — Duncan Brown   Key Takeaways: Humans can hold both deep satisfaction and profound frustration at work—these emotions can coexist and drive different behaviours. Systemic change in healthcare needs more than individual resilience; it requires collective and environmental shifts. Grief can be transformed into advocacy, purpose, and legacy—real change honors lived experience. Support systems—at work and at home—are essential to navigating life’s biggest recalibrations. Psychological safety, trust, and “prosocial” frameworks help teams confront and adapt to complex challenges. Raising sepsis awareness and patient advocacy are urgent for improving safety and outcomes.   Resources Mentioned: ProSocial World and the work of Paul Atkins—on conscious cultural evolution and group collaboration. Self-Determination Theory (Deci & Ryan)—on autonomy, competence, and relatedness in human motivation. Black Box Thinking by Matthew Syed—on learning from failure in healthcare versus aviation. Amy Edmondson’s work on psychological safety and “intelligent failure.” Global Sepsis Alliance and Sepsis Australia—for support and information on sepsis advocacy. Further Reflection: How can you recalibrate when facing both personal and systemic adversity? What psychological needs of your team are being met—and which are being frustrated? How can compassion, learning, and collective action lead to safer, more humane healthcare? Our theme music is "Caribbean" by Zambolino, sourced from FreeToUse.com/music/zambolino/caribbean.

SHOW NOTES: “Is the life you’re living worth what you’re giving up to have it?” — Lynn Scoles Key Takeaways: Recalibration is ongoing. Lynn demonstrates how big and small pivots—in career, relationships, and self-identity—can bring new energy and meaning. Agency is powerful. Notice serendipitous opportunities and make conscious, values-aligned choices. Support systems matter. Trusted friends, honest feedback, and reflective spaces are crucial—inside and outside medicine. Leadership needs breadth. Diverse experiences, including coaching and business, strengthen clinicians as system influencers. Creativity nourishes resilience. Artistic pursuits offer mindfulness, restoration, and a sense of accomplishment outside work. Self-care isn’t selfish. “Not at my expense”—honor your limits as you care for others and yourself. Resources & Topics Mentioned: Book Recommendations: The Power of Full Engagement by Jim Loehr & Tony Schwartz (Lynn Scoles’s forthcoming book Renewable draws inspiration from this resource) Making of a Corporate Athlete — Harvard Business Review article by Jim Loehr and Tony Schwartz Themes: The role of coaching in medicine and beyond Lynn discusses entering coaching, the challenge of being among the first doctors to do so, and how coaching with non-medical clients expanded her professional perspective at 16:35 — 24:22. Sharee and Lynn explore how moving between medical culture and the business world offered new insights and leadership skills at 23:16 — 26:04. Lynn reflects on the need for more doctors in leadership and how her work in executive education and coaching relates to that vision at 25:12 — 26:04.

    EPISODE 7: Dr. Ashok Bhattacharya – Build your life, work is one part of it.

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What if the secret to lasting resilience in healthcare is both simpler and deeper than we imagine?In this episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee speaks with Dr. Ashok Bhattacharya—psychiatrist, founder of the Empathy Clinic, musician, artist, and author—about the lived experience of recalibrating through adversity, loneliness, and transition. From his childhood navigating disability and migration, to defining his path outside traditional medical norms, Ashok shares wisdom on empathy, balance, and the power of narrative.A conversation rich with insight on psychological flexibility, the importance of support, and designing a life (not just a job) that honors all parts of yourself. SHOW NOTES:“Build your life and put your career into it, instead of building your career and squeezing your life in around it.” — Ashok Bhattacharya Key Takeaways: Empathy is healing—for the giver as well as the receiver. Psychological flexibility is a powerful resource in adapting to life’s curveballs. Struggle brings richness and growth, especially when shared with others. Self-care is non-negotiable; habits outside of medicine matter for resilience. Community and deep relationships (inside and outside healthcare) are vital for wellbeing and longevity. Regularly ask: “Who am I?”—your identity is more than your credentials. Narrative therapy and storytelling can help reframe trauma and unlock post-traumatic resilience. It’s not either/or, but with—bring both professional expertise and humanity to medicine. Resources Mentioned: The Empathy Clinic: Founded by Dr. Bhattacharya, integrating empathy, balance, and optimal wellness for individuals and couples. Ashok Bhattacharya LinkedIn page Book’s by Ashok Bhattacharya: Deep Fried Nerves (novel on healthcare experiences) Cake (relationship guide for couples) The Harvard Study of Adult Development: Referenced for the importance of significant relationships on longevity and fulfilment.  “The Mind is in the Body”—Inspired by My Octopus Teacher (Netflix documentary), on holistic mind-body connection.

    EPISODE 6: Dr. Brian Lee – Social Support, Systemic Change, and Family Wellbeing in Healthcare

    EPISODE 6: Dr. Brian Lee – Social Support, Systemic Change, and Family Wellbeing in Healthcare EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What happens when personal lived experience, qualitative research, and systemic insight converge in one conversation?In this episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee Johnson is joined by research fellow Dr Brian Lee, whose work at Deakin University's Lifespan Institute explores the psychosocial impacts of frontline healthcare work, workforce retention, and the ripple effects of COVID-19.Dr Brian Lee shares his journey—balancing parenthood, an ADHD diagnosis, and juggling demands at home and work. Together, they delve into the power and pitfalls of social support, the nuanced needs of healthcare teams, and the crucial role of families in sustaining wellbeing.A candid, thoughtful conversation about vulnerability, adaptation, and the small shifts that make big changes in healthcare and in life. SHOW NOTES: “Small shifts for big changes.” — Dr Brian Lee 01:02:20 Key Takeaways: Social support in healthcare is vital, yet often misunderstood. Having colleagues who “get it” and spaces for open conversation directly improves wellbeing and retention. COVID-19 exposed systemic challenges: workforce fragmentation, loss of mentorship, and the need for coordinated national strategies to support healthcare workers. The emotional tone of organizational responses is generally positive and aspirational, but the “how” remains a challenge. Evidence-based, locally tailored interventions are essential. Qualitative research and co-design with real healthcare workers amplify lived experience—patterns of empathy, compassion fatigue, moral injury, and the importance of team cohesion emerge across roles and units. Family wellbeing has a ripple effect: when families are supported, healthcare workers perform better and sustain their energy. Balance isn’t about boundaries but adapting and integrating roles and identities. ADHD diagnosis and therapy highlight the process of recalibration: acceptance, experimentation, resilience, and awareness underpin ongoing growth and adaptation. Trying again matters. Highlights: “Healthcare workers rely on colleagues for social support, problem-solving, and emotional regulation—it’s organic, but hard to recreate with formal interventions.” Dr Brian Lee 15:21 “Families’ capacity to support depends on their wellbeing, and is shaped by the healthcare worker’s work—managing the work–family interface creates positive ripple effects.” Dr Brian Lee 52:25 “Even if strategies don’t work at first, trying again, adapting, and giving yourself permission to experiment is part of the recalibration process.” Dr Brian Lee 32:17 Resources Mentioned: MRFF-funded intervention for healthcare families: An online, co-designed wellbeing program to support healthcare workers and their families. Sign up for updates and participation via Deakin Lifespan Institute’s webpage. Gallup Research on workplace friendship: Referenced by Sharee Johnson as evidence for the importance of social support 10:55.

    EPISODE 5: Dr. Andrew Green – Changing specialty, discovering emotions, practical mindfulness.

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:What if less stress while working in medicine came from embracing your limits and learning to reconnect—with others and yourself?In this heartfelt episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee sits down with Dr. Andrew Green, specialist anaesthetist and former GP, to explore his journey through burnout, career change, and the powerful role of community. Andrew reflects on the process of transitioning specialties, the struggle to find meaning amid medical routines, and how men's circles, mindfulness, and group coaching profoundly shaped his emotional wellbeing.Tune in for an honest look at the realities of medical life, the courage it takes to recalibrate, and how creating safe spaces for reflection and connection can transform how we care for patients and ourselves.   SHOW NOTES:“What comes up for me right now… is the change that’s happened over time. That whole imposter syndrome thing is just evaporating faster and faster. This is just me. I’m okay just to tell my story.” — Dr. Andrew Green   Key Takeaways: Recalibration often begins with recognizing the need for change—even before we have words like burnout for it. Safe spaces, like men’s groups or facilitated doctor circles, are transformative for emotional wellbeing and learning to talk about feelings. Mindfulness, intentional breathing, and emotional literacy are skills that help maintain calm—even in critical moments—and can be practiced and developed at any stage. Taking real time off and prioritizing joy, space, and self-reflection lead to a more three-dimensional approach to work and life. Sharing vulnerability, practicing gratitude, and telling your own story are strengths—not weaknesses Resources Mentioned: Coaching for Doctors program Recalibrate Learn more, join the waitlist: coachingfordoctors.net.au Book: Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl: https://www.penguin.com.au/books/mans-search-for-meaning-9781846046384):   Dedication:This episode is dedicated to the life and spirit of Dr. Sarah Wilmot.

    EPISODE 4: Dr. Cheryl Martin – Resilience, Recalibration, and the Power of Community

    EPISODE DESCRIPTION:  How do we recalibrate when life, career, and identity shift unexpectedly? In this episode, Sharee Johnson sits down with Dr. Cheryl Martin—emergency physician, trail runner, yoga practitioner, and host of The Mindful Medic podcast. Cheryl shares her journey from Scotland to Australia, the lessons learned through setbacks and relocation, and how running, yoga, and lifelong learning have helped her navigate burnout, injury, and her ever evolving purpose in medicine. Join us for a deep, joyful conversation about adaptability, intentional change, agency, and the vital role of support and reflection for thriving.    SHOW NOTES:  “Find community, find people... I also found a group, quite interestingly, who were quite open, particularly not just running for physical health, but about their mental health.” — Dr. Cheryl Martin  Key Takeaways:  Recalibrating is a lifelong practice—embrace discomfort, learning zones, and growth through adversity.  Support networks (mentors, peers, trail tribe) are essential as we navigate medicine and life.  Passion projects and interests outside of medicine—like running and podcasting—create fulfillment and resilience.  Surrender, awareness, and intentional reflection are critical when faced with setbacks, injury, or fatigue.  Diversity, connection, and broadening perspectives (like Cheryl’s MBA experience) fuel innovation, leadership, and personal development.  Progress is not linear; recalibrating means accepting change and evolving values at every stage.  Resources Mentioned:  The Mindful Medic Podcast: Cheryl’s project amplifying stories of wellbeing, medicine, and personal transformation.

    Episode 3: Sue Robins - Call it love and include yourself on the list.

    What does advocating for yourself and others actually look like when life throws you a curveball?In this heartfelt episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee is joined by Canadian author, speaker, and patient advocate Sue Robins. Together, they explore the ever-evolving practice of recalibration—professionally and personally—through caregiving, career shifts, patient experiences, and embracing vulnerability in the health system.A powerful conversation about living with empathy, accepting change, and showing yourself as much love and care as you offer others. SHOW NOTES: “Think of all the people you care for…and then add yourself to the list.” — Sue Robins Key Takeaways: Recalibration isn’t just for major life moments; it’s a daily practice of adapting, prioritizing, and showing compassion. True advocacy means speaking up for others—and sometimes, having someone else advocate for you when you’re most vulnerable. Self-compassion means adding yourself to the list of those you care for and seeking joy in small, everyday moments. Empathy and humanity matter most in healthcare. A warm look, holding a hand, or a kind word can be as powerful as medicine. Patient voices and stories are essential—health system change is a generational, collective effort. Acceptance and being present are everyday touchstones for recalibrating through uncertainty and adversity.

    EPISODE 2: Dr. Rob Blum – Leadership, Letting Go, and Living Beyond Medicine

    What happens when the unexpected disrupts your path—and what skills help you navigate through? In this inspiring conversation, oncologist and clinical director Dr. Rob Blum joins Sharee Johnson to explore recalibrating through career pivots, family moves, physical injury, and the evolving demands of medicine. Dr. Blum shares stories of risk-taking, leadership, and resilience, reflecting on the importance of teamwork, music, health, and having options. Together, Rob Blum and Sharee Johnson dive deep into why self-awareness, flexibility, and connection are essential to sustain wellbeing, meaning, and a life beyond just work. Rich with practical takeaways and vulnerable wisdom, this episode encourages listeners to pause, realign, and actively create a life that’s not only robust—but antifragile. “Everything we do has a risk or an unknown component... but you can’t do great things if you don’t take risks.” — Rob Blum Key Takeaways: Recalibrating skills apply to every part of life—work, family, and self. Mindfulness creates a gap between experience and reaction; it isn’t just relaxation, it’s essential for wise decision-making. Prioritizing wellbeing isn’t optional: define what fills your bucket and honor it as non-negotiable. Leadership means letting go, empowering others, and embracing change in yourself. Have options—diverse interests make life richer and make you “antifragile” in the face of curveballs. Support networks and mentors are vital; find people to help you reflect and offer perspective. Embrace imperfection, especially when balancing demanding careers with passions, wellness, and family.

    Episode 1: Dr. Liz Wearne – Navigating Change, Trust, and Purpose

    What if recalibrating your life and career started with listening to your own internal voice? In this debut episode of Recalibrating with Sharee Johnson, Sharee speaks with Dr. Liz Wearne a General Practitioner, educator, board member, and ceramic artist—about trust, wellbeing, creativity, and choosing work that aligns with your energy and values. A thoughtful conversation about slowing down, tuning in, and courageously reshaping your path in healthcare and life. “So I think choosing different roles at different times has been about checking in with myself first and going, do I have the energy for this?” — Dr. Liz Wearne Key Takeaways: Reflect on what matters most to you—internally and externally. Be open to recalibrating your life and career, especially when you notice yearning or restlessness. Cultivate internal and external support systems. Champions, mentors, and community matter. Don’t be afraid of vulnerability or failure; courage and patience are partners in growth. Recognize that rest, creativity, and joy are vital, not just “nice-to-haves.” Mindfulness, values, and presence help anchor you through change. Resources Mentioned: Recalibrate Doctor Care Program: Liz is the co-creator of the Recalibrate program for doctors, designed to support recalibration, wellbeing, and growth in medical practice.

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
