Not Another Curbside: Training the Mind Behind the Medicine episodes
- The Mental Side of Medicine | Not Another Curbside Official Trailer
Four patients on your mind. Four more waiting. And someone wants “a moment for a curbside.”
Meet Not Another Curbside, a podcast from MindShift MD about the mental side of physician performance and everything that follows you home after the clinical work is done.
Taylor and Chase are practicing physicians. Michele is a performance coach who works with physicians, professional athletes, and CEOs. Together, they explore what medical training rarely covers: managing your mind, responding under pressure, and being present for the next part of your day.
No wellness lecture. No one pretending they have it all figured out.

About Not Another Curbside: Training the Mind Behind the Medicine
From the publisher's feed
You know the curbside. You’re already behind, trying to get some lunch, and someone catches you in the hallway. Got a second?
Well, this is Not Another Curbside and it’s the conversation you’d actually choose to have. Two practicing physicians and a coach who works with professional athletes, CEOs, and high performers sit down each week with a quote or idea - from a legendary coach, an athlete, a thought leader, or occasionally Taylor’s grandfather - and break it down, test it against real life in medicine, and land on something you can use as a physician whenever you need it. Along the way, someone will probably invoke Michael Jordan, an epic movie, or the hip mobility of an NFL quarterback. It usually makes sense by the end.
This is for the doctor who doesn’t want more tips on managing burnout or another physician wellness module.
The premise is simple: the next level of physician performance is mental.
Medical training prepared you to diagnose, decide, and take care of everyone else. What it neglected to teach you is how to manage your own mind - when a case goes sideways, a patient is angry, the schedule implodes, or you’re home but your brain is still at work. That’s what Fierce Mind Management is: physician coaching meets mental performance training. Learning to respond instead of react. Pursuing excellence without demanding perfection. Treating a miss as information rather than a verdict. And managing your energy so the people at home get you, not what’s left of you.
Taylor (orthopedic surgery) and Chase (family medicine) are still in the trenches - still operating, still in clinic, and still making the most of every challenge. Michele has built a career coaching professional athletes, CEOs, and is bringing the same framework to medicine.
No doubt, medicine is a difficult field to succeed in. There will always be challenges, and a better mindset won’t cancel call. But how you meet pressure, recover from a miss, lead your team, and decide what an outcome means about you… that part can be trained and WILL make you a better physician.
No one gets great in isolation, even if medicine acts like you should. Come for the conversation. Stay for the brotherhood. Your lunch is already cold anyway.
Tune in if you’ve ever found yourself asking:
~ Why can’t I stop thinking about that case?
~ Why doesn’t time off fix physician burnout?
~ Is work-life balance actually possible for doctors?
~ How do I say no without feeling like I’m failing everyone?
~ Who am I when the white coat comes off?
~ How do I be present with my loved ones after a shift like that?
~ What do elite athletes and CEOs know that nobody teaches physicians?
~ Can physician coaching actually help me perform at work and be present at home?
