    Redefining Wellbeing: Foundational Habits Over Quick Fixes in Healthcare and Life

    Welcome to another episode of The Developing Doctor, with your host Dr. Ben Reinking. In a world where healthcare professionals are trained to treat and prevent disease, the art of true wellbeing often gets overlooked—not just for our patients, but for ourselves as clinicians. Today, we explore what it really means to thrive as a whole person, beyond the confines of clinic protocols and quick-fix wellness trends. Joining us is Jacob Frederick, a wellbeing coach and founder of Intentionally Selfish, who brings a fresh perspective from outside the medical system. Jacob Frederick's approach is all about challenging the "wellness as willpower" narrative, focusing instead on sustainable, foundational habits that fit real, busy lives. Together, we dive into the struggles unique to healthcare professionals—like time scarcity, the myth of extreme discipline, and the importance of social connection. We’ll discuss how simple practices like gratitude, movement, and setting boundaries can shift our mindset and create long-term fulfillment. Whether you’re in healthcare or just searching for a more intentional path to wellbeing, this episode is packed with practical, meaningful insights to help you be well—on your own terms. 🩺 ABOUT DR.

    Why Listening Matters More Than Ever in Medicine

    Welcome back to The Developing Doctor! In this episode, host Dr. Ben  explores the often-overlooked skill at the heart of great healthcare teams: truly listening. While medical training equips us with impressive technical abilities, we rarely learn how to listen with intent and compassion. Today, Ben is joined by Dr. Elizabeth Parks, a communication scholar and expert in listening, who has dedicated her career to understanding how the way we listen shapes relationships, leadership, and communities. Together, they dig into why listening is frequently undervalued in healthcare—even among those who care deeply—and how it can be cultivated as a practical skill. Dr. Elizabeth Parks shares the roots of her passion for listening, from her experiences in the Deaf community to working with international nonprofits, and introduces her evidence-based LISTEN framework. The conversation covers the cultural and relational nature of listening, the essential link between listening and trust, and strategies for navigating challenging conversations and organizational bias. If you’re ready to rethink what makes a healer effective, and how listening can transform your practice and your team, you won’t want to miss this episode.

    Building Trust Between Providers and Administrators for Better Healthcare

    On this episode of The Developing Doctor, we dive into one of healthcare’s quietest sources of tension: the complex relationship between physicians and administrators. Too often, these essential partnerships are marred by miscommunication, misunderstanding, and the false belief that we’re working on different teams. But when trust and shared purpose are present, these relationships can transform healthcare into something truly rewarding—and more human. To explore this dynamic, Dr. Ben welcomes two extraordinary guests with decades of experience on the administrative side of medicine. Roxanne Meyer and Kris Zeller have helped practices grow from small teams into thriving healthcare organizations, navigated tremendous changes like EMRs and COVID, and learned firsthand the power of mentorship, leadership, and relationships. Together, they share the highs and lows of running medical practices, the crucial role of communication and mutual respect, and the changes—sometimes challenging, sometimes inspiring—shaping healthcare today. Whether you’re a physician, administrator, or just invested in the future of healthcare, this conversation is a timely reminder: our system works best when we see one another as partners, not adversaries.
