SHOW NOTES:

This week next level entrepreneur Dr. JaNae Taylor and talk about the dangers of the hustle, and what’s considered a healthy hustle, and structures to keep from burning out as you are growing your business.

Highlights from the conversation:

In this podcast, Dr. Taylor - a PhD Psychologist, host of the “Minding My Black Business” podcast, and founder of Taylor’s Counseling and Consulting Services - talks about mental and emotional health for black entrepreneurs.

● While she was pursuing her degree, she noticed the constant demand of assignments. Everything that happens behind the scenes isn’t a priority. As long as academics are fine, nothing else matters. That translates after getting the degree. Doctors prioritize how they perform at work over how they feel as individuals.

● She started a private practice in 2016, and was also working part-time as a university counselor. She initially had the door wide open in terms of who she was seeing, and slowly became more niche, working exclusively with black people. Her podcast started after hearing all the sacrifices doctors made, as well as experiences from her own journey.

● The word “Hustle” gives the impression of the need to constantly be doing something.

● Probably about 80% of all entrepreneurs, particularly black entrepreneurs, are solopreneurs. They invest all their time in their ventures, and hardly ever have time for themselves. And that has mental health negative outcomes, such as anxiety and depression.

● When you have your own business, especially when it’s something that you love, it doesn’t always feel like love. That makes drawing a line more difficult. It’s important to be mindful of when to disconnect.

● Hustle isn’t bad itself. Creating something from nothing and pursuing something that’s your own. That’s great, it’s worth having, and worth working for it. But how do we keep it healthy? By drawing a line. Just like we know it’s healthy to put boundaries to our personal relationships, the relationships with our businesses should have limits as well.

Some signs we should stop and establish boundaries with the hustle:

● Isolation - It’s good to find a support group, plus it can give you new perspectives!

● Burnout - Taking some time off is necessary.

● Fatigue - Don’t forget to sleep.

● Lack of structure - Think and write down the following steps. Having a plan is super important.

● Ignoring your mental health - If you are struggling, don’t be ashamed to turn to a therapist.

SHOW NOTES:

This week next level entrepreneur and Dr. Disha Philip and I took the conversation to another level as we talk about mindfulness and meditation, and how bringing these practices to our daily life can bring healing and resilience in all the chaos.

Highlights from the conversation:

In this podcast, Dr. Disha talks about mindfulness and meditation, and how bringing these practices to our daily life can bring healing and resilience in all the chaos.

Dr. Disha’s Journey into meditation and mindfulness:

● Dr. Disha labels the moment she started meditating as life changing. It taught her how to respond rather than react. After perceiving the benefits of meditation herself, she implemented it into her practice.

● It has helped her and her patients answer some important questions, such as if they are living a life by design, or a life by desire.

Benefits of meditation backed by science:

● Meditation isn’t about clearing the mind, but about coming to the present moment.

● During meditation, the parasympathetic nervous system is activated. This at the same times turns on all healing mechanisms.

● Normalizes heart rates, helps glucose control, and reduces cortisol levels.

Why is meditation important for medical specialists:

It’s important to emphasize how helpful it is teaching people how to respond instead of how to react. Especially in a crisis, it’s necessary to learn how to listen. Listen for when it’s time to continue, when it’s time to sit down, listen to what’s best for oneself. Listen to what’s the best way to approach and treat a patient.

How Dr. Disha teacher others meditation:

Meditation program: An eight-week course that not only helps people learn meditation, but also about the nuts and bolts, and the benefits it brings to life. Classes imparted on Zoom, so anyone from anywhere in the world can join.

Dr. Disha provides a personal mantra based on the date time and place of birth, all calculated through Vedic Astrology and Vedic Math.

There’s unlimited access for questions, and a community on Facebook where everyone gets together to support each other

SHOW NOTES:

This week next level physician entrepreneur and Dr. Melissa Hankins and I took the conversation to another level as we conversed about letting your “Woo” shine…that is embrace our “non-traditional” talents.

Highlights from the conversation:

- Dr. Hankins recounts her journey into EFT and how initially she sat on it b/c of what others would think

- Dr. Maiysha talks a bit about her experience with being integrative physician and her practice of Hypnosis/NLP and Time Line Therapy ®

- So many physicians and medical professionals have talents beyond the profession, however the training has beat the creativity out of us

- The medical profession shames anything that is does not fall in line with mainstream

- Evidence based is important AND many times cutting edge happens first, and then the research catches up later

- Listen to our inner knock and honor it

- It’s okay to be open about your non-traditional gifts. You just have to find your tribe

- You are not alone. There are MANY other physicians exploring the non-traditional healing arts.

SHOW NOTES: This week next level entrepreneur Dr. Jill Wener and I took the conversation to another level as we had a special conversation about drawing a line in the sand, and ending systemic racism. 

Highlights from the conversation: Dr. Jill Wener’s Background: 

● After a few rough years struggling with mental health and inner peace, Jill started practicing meditation with an instructor that emphasized how stress affects human physiology and behavior. 

● She transitioned out of clinical medicine to pursue a three-month teacher training in India. Her intentions were to work part-time in the hospital and part-time as a meditation teacher. However, after having the opportunity to move to China and then back to India, she became a “crunchy granola person.” Going back to medicine wasn’t an option anymore. 

● After returning to the States, she became interested in EFT tapping. Mind-Body Techniques Against Racism 

● In 2016, Dr. Jill wrote a blog post about the election results. An old friend of her called her out about the content, and calling her privileged. That made her investigate more about racism. 

● Research and retreats helped her recognize defensiveness in herself. She determined that in order to control said feelings that come a trace from white supremacy culture, mindfulness was absolutely necessary. 

● Dr. Jill launched a program with eight modules involving different mind-body techniques based on the symptoms of how white supremacy culture pervades everything, and how most can recognize what involves truly being anti racism. 

Being an Ally 

● Voting for Obama, being a democrat, or outrage towards news isn't enough. A ground foundation, shaking journey is necessary. Racism is very much alive in the United States. 

● The idea of being a “White Ally” is that you are a white person who is there to work together with black folks who are doing the work. The intention isn’t to fix anything for anybody, but to support and empower those who aren’t heard. Transforming Racism from Deep Inside 

● Racism is is not only used in the white community. Racism is global. Being able to celebrate other cultures besides the white culture. Good thing is that people are willing to break down the construct of light skin being better than dark skin. 

● Only with dialogue and breaking down what’s truly inside, there is a chance for true transformation. It all starts in the head by recognizing the depth of the problem. 

● Racism also affects how healthcare professionals practice. By being more mindful about racism, its roots, and recognizing it, doctors will be less biased against their patients- even when this bias in unconscious.

SHOW NOTES:

This week next level entrepreneur and Dr. Michelle Mudge-Riley and I took the conversation to another level as we had a special conversation about physicians helping physicians and she reveals what she is doing to help physicians who are interested in non-clinical careers this summer in July!

Highlights from the conversation:

Dr. Mudge’s Background

● Dr. Mudge was in pathology training as a pathology before transitioning in 2004 She loved medicine, but wasn’t sure clinical medicine was what she felt comfortable with. Back in those days, resources that now are available all over the internet weren’t there. That made her feel alone and lost.

● She then tried other jobs somehow related to medicine - which was the only work experience she had - and worked for a medical device company and hospital administration. Without marketing or administration knowledge, the outcomes weren’t exactly good.

● She started telling her story, and it got picked up by different news channels. Later, she was invited to speak in conferences about her experience. Not long after that, her clients started reaching out to her for coaching services.

A Message For the Doctors that Feel Like they Outgrew Their Careers

It’s a bit scary, because you may feel like you are turning your back into what you worked so hard for. You are not a failure, you are exploring other options. It’s valid to think about businesses that you’d like to start, careers that you’d like to explore. Spread your wings, because good things come with that.

The Situation of Doctors Trying to Change Their Career Path

● No one is safe form how lost they will feel once they make the transition. Triple board certified orthopedics, surgeons, etc…

● Currently, there is what seems to be a mass exodus. Doctors are looking towards changing their career, and this doesn’t necessarily mean coming out of clinical, but just practicing on their own terms.

● What stops most of the people is fear. “What’s out there? Is there anything for me?”

● There are many different paths that people can take: Telemedicine, utilization review work, healthcare IT, pharma medical science liaison work, digital technology related or unrelated to medicine…

How To Help Doctors During the Transition

● Preparing their minds for the journey: Most of physicians look only at the destination. Becoming a doctor was a journey, and most forget that. The transition will be journey too.

● It’s best to leave the competitive mindset behind: Striving to be as good as it gets is wonderful, but there’s no need to push others down. There’s enough bread for everyone.

● Confidence: Many will say that a transition is stupid, a waste of time, or a waste of medical training. There’s a reason someone decided to do the transition, and that should be the one thing on their mind, and their main motivation.

SHOW NOTES:

This week next level physician entrepreneur and coach Dr. Andrew Tisser and I took the conversation to another level as we conversed about the fact that it’s never to early to change your mind (or your career).

Highlights from the conversation:

- Dr. Tisser shares his journey through med school and residency

- He knew early on that medicine was not his calling, but he pushed on b/c they kept saying “it’ll get better”

- We are programmed for delayed gratification, and this phrase “It’ll get better” is very prevalent in our community

- He even felt like “it’s too early for me to quit”

- He has explored and considered many paths (with a very patient wife)

- We talked about what made him finally choose coaching as a path and his choice to work with early career physicians

- Message to early career docs: Follow that intuition

- If you know medicine is not for you, don’t be afraid to make that transition

- If are unsure, and thinking about leaving, speak with a coach (Like Andrew) to uncover what that ideal career is

SHOW NOTES:

This week next level physician entrepreneur and Doctors Unbound Podcast Host David Draghinas and I took the conversation to another level as we conversed about Building Wealth in the short-term rental real estate market.

Highlights from the conversation:

- Excited to connect with the host of podcast Doctors Unbound

- Practicing Anesthesiologist w/a family of 4 children

- As a child watched his family in real estate (which influenced his awareness of real estate as an option for building wealth)

- Was interested in real estate investment, but after doing the research and a little math decided on short term rental option was the best option

- Short term rental has the potential to funnel in more cash while at the same time building wealth

- Short term rental market is changing and investors are buying up whole complexes and renting out rooms. Therefore it’s probably a smart idea to find a competitive edge (for Dr. Draginas it is luxury home space).

- We talked about “rental arbitrage” which is renting a home/apartment at slightly and then using it for short term rentals. While it can be a short term cash flow option, it doesn’t allow building of wealth long term. Purchasing the home will give you both cash and long term wealth building.
