Healin Podcast

In this episode, we talked about her journey into incorporating the effects of trauma and mental health into her pediatrics practice and her passion for treating the whole person holistically. She explained how so many headaches, and tummy aches are caused by emotional and mental health issues, and we had a comprehensive discussion on how she treats them. We discussed the biggest factor affecting children and teens these days and what to do about it, and why it was important for her as a pediatrician to also prioritize her wellness in many ways, including working with a professional coach and prioritizing living as her most authentic self through her own healing and growth.

This is a fascinating discussion with clinical Cardiologist, Dr. Jonathan Fisher, in which he shares the struggles that arise from the rigorous medical school education and practice and shares with us how getting support and working with positive psychology, mindfulness, compassion, and many other practices, especially mindset work - using the awareness of our thoughts and how they affect our feelings and actions - helped him to to become more present, productive, and fulfilled physician and person. This initially self-directed work led him to become a recognized well-being leader, to write his upcoming book "One Heart, A Cardiologist Guide to Healing, Health and Happiness," and established him as the head of a wellness program in his institution. His transformational programs have helped hundreds of leaders.

Episode 100th is celebrated by having a very special guest for me, one of my most active and favorite clients, my beloved husband of 10 years, Dr. Paul Haser. We talked about his path into self growth, why it is hard for medical professionals to get support, all the areas where coaching has been very valuable to him, and all the key take-aways! We also shared some insights and wisdom on why I and anyone who knows him, considers him an amazing husband, father, friend and doctor.

I had a fascinating conversation with Performance Coach and expert in Polyvagal Theory about what happens to our bodies and our nervous system on "game day" and how Polyvagal Theory can significantly help for us to help our bodies find our homeostasis "game zone" so that we can be at ease, be in stillness and in the present moment and "show up" to our kids and at work the way we want to show up! We had a conversation about his program called the PlayZone, how it works and how it can be applied to any profession and at home as parents. You can find Michael Allison and his program for coaches, therapists, leades, educations and performers at www.theplayzone.com or at the Polyvagal Institute where he is also an instructor.

I am super excited about this episode as it was requested by many to be shared with anyone that you know who is convinced that they don't need any help or any support at all. They may be right! I share the times when you can work on yourself on your own, and when is the time that I personally and professionally believe that you can significantly profit from investing time and resources into getting support and why! You are not alone, I have been there too, before. I hope you find this episode helpful!
