Welcome to Episode 88 of the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast. I'm your host, Dr. Sarah Smith, and today we'll be diving into a compelling discussion with Dr. Fabienne Moore, a physician and executive coach based in Atlanta. Dr. Moore shares her transformative journey from enduring the grueling demands of a categorical general surgery residency to carving out a fulfilling career in clinical research, public health, and executive coaching.

In this episode, Dr. Moore opens up about the unsustainable practices she faced during residency, from facing physical exhaustion to falling asleep while driving. She recounts the pivotal moments and mentors that guided her transition out of clinical roles and into impactful work in health communications and consulting.

We'll also explore Dr. Moore's personal growth activities, such as yoga, meditation, and equine therapy, and the profound effect they have had on her professional and personal life. Dr. Moore even guides us through a simple grounding exercise, the "5 Senses" exercise, aimed at bringing mindfulness into our hectic days.

Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode:

Dr. Fabienne Moore Bio:

In the words of her clients, Fabienne Moore is, "...an excellent coach, especially for a surgeon or physician, or really anyone in a high stress and physical workspace. She understands well the stress and challenges we face in this unique work environment. Fabienne was really able to help me dial in on my body's reaction to stress and how that plays out in the surgeon's arena. I also think she really helped me understand what I can and cannot control, also hugely important in a field where you are used to controlling the environment around you." A physician herself, with clinical training in general surgery, Fabienne works as a coach and advisor to physician leaders and executives.
