    Episode 4: The Female Athlete Initiative: Injury Prevention, Mindset & Fueling the Next Generation of Women in Sports

    Women’s sports have changed. The way we care for female athletes should too. In this episode of Three Docs And a Dumpster Fire, Dr. Meredith Rishwain, Dr. Megan Babb, and Dr. Ingrid Grove dive into the heart behind the Female Athlete Initiative — a physician-led approach to injury prevention, mindset coaching, and performance nutrition designed specifically for female athletes. For Dr. Babb, this work is personal. As a former Division I soccer player who grew up before women’s professional sports truly took off, she understands both the opportunity and the gap. Today’s young female athletes can dream bigger than ever — but they also face unique physical and mental demands that require tailored care. This conversation explores why female athletes are not just “smaller versions” of male athletes, and why proper screening, fueling, and mental resilience training are essential for long-term performance and health. In this episode, we discuss: • Why female athletes have unique ACL and injury risks • The role of biomechanics and physiology in prevention • How mindset coaching builds resilience, focus, and confidence • Why performance nutrition is critical for recovery and longevity • How physician-led screening can keep athletes competing safely The Female Athlete Initiative offers: • ACL Injury Risk Assessments tailored to female biomechanics • Elite Athlete Mindset coaching • Performance nutrition guidance • Care led by Dr. Megan Babb, board-certified family physician with ACL prevention and return-to-play certifications Whether you’re a parent, coach, or athlete yourself, this episode breaks down what real, proactive support for female athletes looks like. Not just to prevent injury, but to build strong, confident competitors for life.

    Aging well doesn’t happen by accident. In this episode of "Three Docs And a Dumpster Fire", Dr. Megan Babb, Dr. Rishwain, and Dr. Grove share what they’ve learned from years of caring for patients who don’t just survive life’s hardest moments.. they recover, adapt, and continue to thrive as they age.

From movement and sleep to mindset and coping mechanisms, this conversation offers a realistic, compassionate framework for long-term health. In this episode, we discuss: • Common traits of patients who age well physically and mentally • Why what you do in your 40s determines what’s possible later • How stress, sleep, food, and movement compound over time • The difference between healthy and unhealthy coping mechanisms • Why small, sustainable habits outperform all-or-nothing approaches This episode isn’t about chasing youth or optimizing every detail of your life. It’s about learning how to work with the body you have now, adapting as life changes, and building habits that help you live well at any age. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by health advice or unsure where to start, this conversation is for you.

    Episode 2: Big Pharma, Broken Promises: How the Drug Industry Hijacked Healthcare

    Big Pharma promises innovation, life-saving drugs, and better health — but for millions of patients, the reality looks very different. In this episode, we break down how the pharmaceutical industry evolved into a system where profits often come before patients. From insulin price hikes and drug shortages to insurance denials and pharmacy benefit managers pulling the strings, we follow the money and expose the incentives shaping modern healthcare. We cover: • How patent loopholes and marketing budgets distort innovation • Why patients are paying more while middlemen profit • The human cost of medication shortages and insurance formularies • Why doctors are stuck taking the blame for a broken system • What real reform could actually look like This isn’t anti-medicine, it’s pro-patient. Innovation saves lives, but the current system is failing the people it’s supposed to protect. If you’ve ever wondered why the right medication is so hard to access, this conversation is for you.
