How does eliminating chronic tinnitus relate to eliminating chronic pain and anxiety, using neuroplasticity to retrain the brain, and learning effective ways to process emotions and stress?    What are the six steps you can apply to transform your life?    Author Peter Studenik discusses his life transforming experience, conquering fear and overcoming debilitating chronic tinnitus. The conversation starts with Peter telling the story of how his symptoms began, how he spent years seeing doctor after doctor, to no avail.    Peter shares his personal journey, and walks us through the steps he took to eliminate tinnitus completely, and reorganize his life for long term success. He discusses the challenges he faced, and the specific methods using neuroplasticity of the brain to create new neurological pathways, an approach that can also be used to conquer many forms of chronic pain and anxiety. We discuss how the method he created to cure chronic tinnitus may be extrapolated to eliminate chronic pain and chronic anxiety.    Related episodes:   The Paradigm Shift to Cure Chronic Pain with Dr. Howard Schubiner https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/docworking-the-whole-physician-podcast/id1554580440?i=1000566609459   Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy Part I with Dr. David Clarke https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/docworking-the-whole-physician-podcast/id1554580440?i=1000557909041   Emotional Awareness and Expression Therapy Part 2 with Dr. David Clarke https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/docworking-the-whole-physician-podcast/id1554580440?i=1000558250606   Neuroplasticity: How You Can Impact Your Overall Health by Controlling Your Thoughts with Dr. Philippe Douyon https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/docworking-the-whole-physician-podcast/id1554580440?i=1000604466902   How to Process Stress and Alleviate Pain and Other Symptoms with Stephanie Shaw https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/docworking-the-whole-physician-podcast/id1554580440?i=1000617125977   “Tinnitus is a neurological problem that can be fixed.” -Peter Studenik, Author I cured my Tinnitus: My Journey from Tinnitus, to Life Transformation, to True Healing More about author Peter Studenik: https://icuredmytinnitus.com/my-story/ link to book - https://a.co/d/hijUl1F website - www.icuredmytinnitus.com ways to reach Peter [email protected] https://www.instagram.com/peter.studenik/ https://www.facebook.com/icuredmytinnitus https://www.youtube.com/@peterstudenikms9524   If you enjoy this podcast, please leave us a 5-star review and subscribe to DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast wherever you listen to podcasts!

This is a powerful story of unrecognized stress, physical repercussions, and resolution. “If you don't get the stress under control, it's like, you may as well have eaten the chocolate cake, because stress has a huge impact on our bodies.” -Coach Stephanie Shaw How do you process stress so that it doesn't come out sideways and manifest as physical symptoms?

Knowing that I’m not going through this alone.” -Vanessa Naum   We’re excited to welcome back Physician Marriage Coaches, Dr. George (Dr. Jeep) and Vanessa Naum.    In this episode, Vanessa discusses her experience dealing with Fibromyalgia and how being married to a physician has impacted her journey living with a chronic illness. Dr. Jeep and Vanessa give advice on how to best help a partner or loved one dealing with a chronic illness and the importance of understanding and compassion.  You don’t want to miss this inspiring episode!   According to a report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) published in 2018, approximately 60% of adults in the United States have at least one chronic condition, such as heart disease, diabetes, or cancer.    Furthermore, a survey conducted by the National Alliance for Caregiving and AARP Public Policy Institute found that about one in three adults in the United States, or 34.2 million people, have provided unpaid care to an adult aged 50 or older in the past 12 months. Of these caregivers, 60% reported providing care for someone with a chronic illness.   It's worth noting that these statistics are from studies conducted before the COVID-19 pandemic, which may have had an impact on the prevalence of chronic illnesses and caregiving in the United States.   According to a study published in The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA) in 2020, 16.5% of physicians in the United States reported having a chronic illness and 14.2% reported providing care for an adult family member with a chronic illness.    The study also found that female physicians were more likely than male physicians to have a chronic illness or care for someone with a chronic illness. Additionally, physicians who reported having a chronic illness were more likely to work part-time or reduce their clinical workload than those without a chronic illness.    It's worth noting that the characteristics and experiences of physicians with chronic illnesses may vary based on the type of illness, severity of symptoms, and other factors. _   We hope you check out these two previous episodes with Dr. Jeep and Vanessa Naum:   145: Why Physician Marriages Have Challenges with Dr. Jeep and Vanessa Naum   186: Becoming a Doctor, the Struggle Is Real with Dr. Jeep & Vanessa Naum   Episode mentioned in the podcast on chronic pain: 180: The Paradigm Shift To Cure Chronic Pain for You and Your Patients with Dr. Howard Schubiner   The Naum’s Gift To You: Go to their website at www.BestFriendsAgain.com and scroll down to receive a FREE copy of the chapter: Love Letter Method with Your Spouse, from Dr. Jeep’s book, “What’s Forever For?

And the health of the system is not on your shoulders.” -Tom Davis, MD   In today’s episode, we are excited to welcome Dr. Tom Davis back (click here for our previous episode with Dr. Davis). Dr. Davis is an entrepreneur, telemedicine expert, mentor, speaker, and author.  He consistently releases great high-value content across his many channels so clinicians can serve their patients sustainably and with joy, while prioritizing their own well-being.   In this episode, Dr. Davis speaks with host, Dr. Jen Barna, about the company he created with cofounder Dr. John Jurica, called NewScript.    “NewScript is a community of healthcare professionals, career transition mentors and wellness specialists helping each other to live a better life.”   Dr. Davis talks about the inspiration behind starting NewScript and how it helps healthcare professionals feel less alone and gives them the opportunity to share their journeys in a confidential, safe space.

“That’s the thing, when people start to approach their life in different ways, they start to see just how their life can change.” -Philippe Douyon MD   For Episode 218, we are doing a replay of a great conversation between Coach Gabriella Dennery MD and neurologist Dr. Philippe Douyon.  Dr. Douyon is a highly respected author, runs the Inle Brainfit Institute, and is a huge proponent of controlling brain health in order to support your overall health. Gabriella and Dr. Douyon speak about his personal journey, coping with renal failure that began as a young man, through college and medical school, and through two renal transplants, one of which was just recently. They speak about how chronic illness does not define us, how the inner workings of the brain affect our health and well-being, and how our thoughts are the one thing in this world that we can control. Tune in to hear how some simple changes can change the path you're on, and get you on the path you envision for yourself!    Dr. Douyon is a board certified neurologist.

“You’ve got to become an expert on what non-traditional, nonclinical jobs are out there and then you can start narrowing it down.” -Dr. John Jurica   Dr. John Jurica is an expert in nonclinical jobs and side gigs for physicians and other healthcare professionals. In today’s episode, DocWorking: The Whole Physician Podcast is thrilled to welcome Dr. John Jurica back (click here for our previous episode with Dr. Jurica).    In today’s episode, Dr. Jurica discusses common nonclinical jobs as well as some less common nonclinical jobs that you may not have heard about. He also shares information about what training or certification you may or may not need to enter one of these fields, as well as what type of roles you should be seeking in your clinical work starting today, in order to position yourself for a successful transition into nonclinical work in the future. You will also hear about healthcare entrepreneurship, and if you’re a physician entrepreneur, or other medical professional entrepreneur, how a mastermind group could be the greatest asset you aren’t yet using. If you are interested in nonclinical work, this episode is full of information, resources and advice to get you where you want to go.    Dr. John Jurica is a family physician who began doing nonclinical side jobs early in his career. He started as a part time physician advisor and medical director, and subsequently worked as a hospital Chief Medical Officer for 14 years.   He left his CMO position to partner in an urgent care start-up in 2014, where he continues to serve as co-owner and medical director.    In 2017, Dr. Jurica started producing the weekly Physician Nonclinical Careers Podcast, where he presents interviews with physicians in unconventional careers and experts in physician career transition.    In 2018, he created the Nonclinical Career Academy (nonclincalcareeracademy.com), an online educational platform.    Dr. Jurica and Dr. Tom Davis launched NewScript in 2020, an online community of healthcare professionals, career transition mentors, and wellness specialists helping each other live a better life.

“I guess the average person doesn't have a plan. So that's a good first start, like have a plan. Everybody should have a plan. That's good. But like a lot of people that do planning, they skip the most important part. What is your purpose in life? Why are you here? What's most important to you? What are your values like? Where do you want to go? What does your ideal future look like? I think it's hard to do that exercise in training because you're like, super, go, go, go.” - Daniel Wrenne   Daniel Wrenne loves helping people use their finances to live better lives. During the work day, he is busy running Wrenne Financial Planning, a planning firm dedicated to helping physicians use money to live better lives and hosting the Finance for Physicians Podcast. Ultimately, he wants to live a life worth imitating and help others do the same. Above all, he values his faith in Christ and his family. Most of his spare time involves wrestling his boys Noah, Henry and Andrew, coaching soccer, and spending time with his wife Alison.   Many people, especially physicians, can be intimidated to come forward with their problems around burnout and money. Burnout can be a hidden problem, even from ourselves. We are so accustomed to not being able to make ourselves vulnerable in our culture that we tend to deny it and tend to look for ways to solve it on our own. Often as physicians, we feel that we should be able to heal ourselves. We look for solutions without telling other people, which leads to higher suicide rate and contributes to the epidemic of burnout that we're facing right now.    One thing that we see over and over again in our physician community at DocWorking is people who feel there's a big connection between being trapped by our finances and feeling burned out. The concept of having options of financial independence is so important, and Daniel explains how planning ahead and having your financial ducks in a row makes all the difference. Our mindset around money can greatly impact our financial path and keeping your values in mind when setting goals helps you stay on track. Daniel talks about how to sail your financial ship with direction, finding the right motivation for change, and how working with a coach, therapist, or financial planner is important for finding financial success and sustainability.

Contaminated time is a topic that comes up a lot in our conversations. Essentially, contaminated time refers to the idea that, whether we’re at work or at home, our time can become “contaminated” by worries, thoughts, energy, and attention, which takes us away from the present moment. Here, we share some of the ways we can tackle time leaking so you can spend more time being present in both your professional and personal lives.
