This episode answers a question I get often- Do I coach men?
The answer is yes! I am a mom of three young adult men, the sister of two brothers, and a wife. I am surrounded by men. As an institutional wellness leader for over twenty years, I worked with all comers.
In honor of Fatherâs Day, Dr. Adam Was, joins me to chat about how coaching, which he came to primarily for help with career decision-making, also helped his family life.
He shares the perspective of a physician dad, in a dual-physician household, with three small children, and two dogs.
Coaching helped Adam let go of guilt about working part-time as an academic pediatric anesthesiologist and start taking time for himself.
Adam came to coaching as a way to set himself up for success and to optimize his career satisfaction and work-life balance. He was not in distress or burnt out. And it improved his life tremendously.
He shares that coaching was not at all what he expected and was so much more helpful than he imagined.
Coaching helped increase his patience with his three children under five. It gave him the gift of âof course,â a mantra he uses frequently. It helped him focus on what matters most, improve his communication with his wife, and grow his tolerance for uncertainty.
Mindfulness and meditation are key to Adamâs success. At the end of the episode, he shares how and when he practices it for optimal effect.
Send your male colleagues and your spouses my way. It's often harder for men to reach out for coaching and support. They very often need a loving nudge.
Consider gifting coaching to your co-parent or significant other for Fatherâs Day, a birthday, or your anniversary. Coaching ends up being a gift for the entire family.
If your co-parent or partner isn't ready for their own coaching yet, jump in yourself. When you change, those around you change. Whether you are in distress and burnt out, under marital stress or parenting overwhelm, or you simply want to optimize, coaching is an incredible tool to change your life and your relationship for the better.

Dr. Jaclyn Albin, a med-peds physician at UT Southwestern joins us today. She is the director of the culinary medicine program, an Associate Professor of Internal Medicine and Pediatrics, and practices primary care across the lifespan.

Slow down, be fully present, and leave your devices elsewhere. Share stories and make mealtimes an experience of connection and love
Listen to hear more practical strategies for healing your own relationship with food and gathering peacefully to enjoy family mealtimes with less drama.

Wishing is not indulgent or fluff. Wishing is powerful, strategic, and fun.
Alexa Fisher is the founder of Wishbeads âthe original intention-setting jewelry.â Her Wishbead bracelets are an integral part of my retreat business.
My personal Wishbead bracelets are partly responsible for my big wish (dream) coming to fruition recently.
Wishing is a form of intention setting. As such it releases motivational neurochemicals such as dopamine and acetylcholine.
Wishes don't just happen. They require courage. Courage to let your true desires be seen and to share them with others.
When you choose a wish and live into manifesting it, you begin to actively call in whatâs needed for your wish to come true. You connect with people who can help you. Those people connect you with others. You begin to see yourself as someone to whom things like your wishes happen. You grow to believe in yourself and the process.
There is no right wish and no right way to wish.
Many of us feel guilty about wishing for something we desire. And even more guilty when our wishes come true. Like it might not be allowed or fair to others. That we donât deserve it. That our wish coming true might make others feel bad. Many people hide when wishes come true. They minimize the story of how their dreams and wishes happened because they are worried about being judged. Hiding our wishes and dreams helps no one. Hiding when they come true is wasteful.
What if others are inspired to take action towards a more aligned authentic and joy-filled life because they witnessed wishes coming true?
What if they choose to pursue their own dreams and wishes because their eyes have been opened to possibility?
If you want to get started on wishing your own desires into existence, join me at a retreat. It's the first step out of waiting for things to get better and instead making them better. It's the first step towards your wishes coming true.
âAn unparalled expereinceâ
âIt's worth it and can help shift the trajectory of your life for the better in ways you may never have expected!â
âMore valuable than I can say. In the one week since the retreat, I have felt and made some big internal and external shifts in my life. I am living and practicing medicine in different ways."
"This was a deep and profoundly healing experience.â
âThis is an investment in your health and that of your loved ones and your career. Invaluable!â
If you can't make a retreat happen yet, coach with me- 1:1 or in a small group www.jessiemahoneymd.com

âWhat do you think is the biggest waste of time?"
"Comparing yourself to others," said the mole.â
â Charlie Mackesy, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the HorseDo you compare yourself to others? Feel like you donât belong or are lesser than?
In groups, do you feel like you are behind or donât measure up?
In this episode, we discuss the compare and despair mentality and its costs. We hope to help you finally let go of this expensive habit
Our brain thinks comparing ourselves helps us and pushes us forward to work hard and achieve more. More often than not it gets in our way.
Compare and despair leads to shame, frustration, and less growth than we otherwise would have. We release cortisol, norepinephrine, and experience more stress, less creativity, and more reactivity.
What if we could train our brains to not make comparisons or feeling less our default and instead make self-compassion, curiosity, and intention-setting our default?
In this episode, we share many tools to help you learn to use your brain strategically.
Joining a retreat or signing up for 1:1 or small group coaching is strategic. It's the way out of our costly default compare and despair approach.

When you decide to make a pivot as big as leaving your medical practice after 20 years expect scary. It takes time and courage.
And, it just might turn out better than you expect. Even if your husband has an unexpected cancer diagnosis right in the middle of your transition.
Coaching, mindfulness, and taking a pause helped Dr. Wazeka leave her employed pediatric pulmonary job, navigate her husbandâs cancer diagnosis, and send her oldest daughter off to college with grace and equanimity.
In this episode, April shares how patience, curiosity, and kindness steadied her while she made big changes.
She shares the tools she found most helpful to allow her to let go of her previously narrow and inflexible medical mindset, gift herself permission to pause, and ultimately to live an aligned life.
Giving herself permission to take a pause was hard. April has previously never taken any time off except for maternity leave. She went straight through from high school to college to residency to fellowship to being an attending for twenty years.
If you are worried that itâs too dangerous or too hard to take a break and/or leave clinical medicine, you are not alone.
Our tendencies towards a scarcity mindset, catastrophizing, and focusing on the negative, make this change even harder even when we know our journey with our current role is complete.
With regular coaching and a regular mindfulness practice, Dr. Wazeka is now on the other side.
She is living a life she wants to be living rather than moving through her life like she thought she should be living. She now enjoys a more expansive identity as a connected and available mom and wife, a new mindfulness teacher, and a happier and healthier human.
April was also a guest on the Mindful Healers Podcast in 2022. In Episode 91, she shares how mindfulness and coaching helped her move through the pandemic as a physician, mom, wife, and daughter with more grace and equanimity.
Listen to that episode here:
https://themindfulhealerspodcast.libsyn.com/91-bettertogether-finding-alignment-with-mindfulness-and-coaching
If you want to start living the life you WANT to be living, reach out for mindful coaching. You will be so glad you did. www.jessiemahoneymd.com
If you want to support yourself well through a big change, move beyond consuming this podcast and dreaming.
April is a steadfast podcast listener. In this episode, she points out, true change only happened for her when she committed to doing the work and invested in herself, her happiness, and the life she wanted. April has been supporting herself with virtual coaching for three years. It is currently preventive care that helps continue to grow, evolve, and live in alignment ongoing.

Do you feel under-appreciated for your efforts on behalf of your family, your patients, and/or your institutions?
Have your expectations of others in expressing their love, thanks, and appreciation been mismatched with what you perceive is "right" or deserved?
Listen for tools, strategies, and a framework of understanding to help you move forward with mindfulness and compassion.
Feeling not appreciated enough is usually a case of mismatched expectations and beliefs.
We have an idea of what others should do to appreciate us.
We also believe that they should know what will make us feel appreciated.
We expect others to read our minds and be fair.
Your expectations may or may not be reasonable- even if they feel 100 percent reasonable to you. Even if they are reasonable they may or not be feasible or possible.
Could you drop your expectations and decide to enjoy the day (and your life) moment by moment exactly as they are?
If you are not happy then, choose to stay, choose to keep doing what you are doing - or not.
If you decide to stay for now, notice how others show you appreciation, even if it doesnât look like you think it should.
Need help with this?
Small group coaching and retreats are the answer.

An amusing discussion about mindful decision-making with 18-year-old Liam Mahoney, a high school senior.
In this episode, Liam shares his college decision-making process.
He showcases his extremely abundant mindset, his positivity bias, and why he chose to become a UC Berkeley 2028 rather than a UCLA 2028.
Liam shares how he made an authentic decision for himself despite conflicting advice from his two brothers and his grandparents. He shares why he didnât let the opinions of his peers influence his decision. He also shares what parents can do to be helpful to their children and young adults in the decision-making process.
Our discussion also touches on the luck factor, the strategy of having your own back, consulting your future self, connecting with who you want to become, and the value of patience and sitting with a made decision for a while.
We hope you will leave inspired, amused, and better equipped for your next big decision.
âMaking a decision was only the beginning of things. When someone makes a decision, he is really diving into a strong current that will carry him to places he had never dreamed of when he first made the decision.â - Paul Coehlo, The Alchemist
*special thanks to Dr. Monica Sood for sharing this quote right before we recorded this episode.

Words of wisdom from a professional pivoter.
In today's episode, we delve into the transformative power of pivoting in both life and career. Dr. Jillian shares strategies for embracing change, giving yourself permission, and learning to put your opinion above the opinion of others.
Trigger warning: Blunt mentions of suicide and eating disorders occur in this episode.
Giving yourself permission to pivot is hard.
Societal pressures often lead us astray from what truly matters. We spend a lot of time in our lives worrying about crap that doesn't actually matter.
Ask yourself these questions:
Are my current actions aligned with my current goals and aspirations?
Am I open to embracing change, or do I tend to resist it?
What pivotal moments have I experienced in my own life or career and what would I do differently?Career paths are rarely linear, and sometimes it's necessary to pivot to pursue new passions or align with our changing priorities.
In medicine, we are told that pivoting is equal to failure. What if it is actually success?
We hope you enjoy this special guest episode. Find more about Dr. Jillian Rigert at www.jillianrigertcoaching.com. https://www.youtube.com/@JillianRigertDMDMD https://www.linkedin.com/in/jillian-rigert/

Life, relationships, and medicine are full of urgency mismatches.
Their urgency is not your urgency. Your urgency may also not be their urgency. Many things that feel urgent aren't urgent.
How often do you receive emails and texts from someone wanting something from you urgently?
What story do you tell about it?
How do you feel when you receive these messages?
Do you feel anxious, resentful, resistant, maybe even angry?
How often is it truly urgent?
We live in a society with a lot of unnecessary urgency. Medicine is full of necessary and unnecessary urgency.
Urgency, necessary or not has a huge emotional and energetic cost.
Listen to learn how to be discerning about urgency. Learn how to navigate urgency, whether it be the urgency of others or your own, with more grace and ease.

Are you sometimes overwhelmed and depleted by the demands of caregiving for both your parents and your children? Does caregiving wear you down or cause stress and anxiety?
Do you think YOU have to do it all?
The inspiration for this podcast is the very full plate that we have both been living as caregivers for both aging parents and our own children.
We invite you to approach this abundance of caregiving with love, self-compassion, mindfulness and intention. If you can, you will likely find much more spaciousness and ease.
Some recommendations we share in this episode:
Notice stories of time scarcity and uncomfortable emotions. When difficult emotions and body sensations arise, notice them. Feeling frazzled, rushed, and unsettled is reasonable, maybe even expected.
Accept and allow discomfort and uncomfortable. Accept and allow busy, unmet expectations, conflicting emotions, and different opinions. Accept and donât like this season of abundant caregiving. Resisting the reality of the situation is expensive emotionally and energetically.
Stay out of judgment. Rather than blaming yourself, or any of your loved ones, simply acknowledge the challenges of a complex situation and a full life.
Take a pause. Pause and breathe. Pause and be present. Pause and take a break.
Practice kindness and self-compassion. What would kindness do? What would love do?
Care for yourself as well. Acknowledge and prioritize your own well-being and the potential need for blank space. Even though physicians are experts at caregiving, we also have human needs.
Ask for help. Getting help helps. Enlist other family members and give yourself permission to not be THE ONE to do it all. Step out of, self sacrifice, martyrdom, and toxic independence.
Connect with gratitude for having an abundance of loved ones of all ages, resources, knowledge, and skills.
Think generously. Assume good intent. Tell loving stories. Practice loving amusement.
Stay out of over-responsibility, perfectionism, and people-pleasing.
Practice boundaries from a place of love.
Prioritize yourself and your human needs first. No one else will.

The legal system is not medicine.
Very little is in your control in a medicolegal cases.
What is in your control?
How you respond and whether you get help and support along the way.
Mindfulness, self-compassion, therapy, and coaching are all key to staying as healthy, balanced, and buoyant as possible.
Lawsuits pull the rug out from under physicians. There is trauma behind every curve.
Lawsuits bring out the harmful side of our common default thought patterns as physicians.
Many physicians who experience a malpractice suit end up leaving the practice of medicine.
Listen to this episode for human advice for navigating a lawsuit.
What is shared in this episode is not medical or legal advice. It is the personal experience of our special guest, Dr. Rachel Bickling.
What does she wish she had known to do beforehand:
Ask questions and get help. You donât know what you don't know when it comes to the law
Don't think like a doctor.
Donât be a helper. Don't catastrophize.
Itâs not about you or whatâs right or just.
It is no place for shame, blame, guilt, victimhood, martyrdom, personalization, right and wrong, all or none.
The legal system is not medicine.
Itâs not about scientific truth.
Itâs about who can tell the most poignant story.
Not all facts matter.
What is medically patient may not be legally permissible.
You can choose not to be a victim.
Focus on what is in your control.
Get help and support for your mental health.
Get a clinical mentor to support you while you continue to practice medicine during a lawsuit.
Remember that of course you are overwhelmed, stressed, doubting yourself, and distracted.
Take time off.
Practice mindfulness and more mindfulness.

We all âworkâ with our spouses all the time - we just donât realize it.
Even if you donât run an actual business or LLC together, you work together as parents and intimate partners. Running a home and family is the equivalent of a small business.
To work better with your spouse:

Do you want your child to do and be more than what they are capable of?
Have you yourself been indoctrinated into toxic achievement culture?
Would you like to break free from the constraints of toxic achievement culture for yourself and your children?
This episode is another in the Parent with Presence series.
Our intention is to call out and identify toxic achievement culture and how, to some extent, most of us have been indoctrinated into it. Through mindfulness and self compassion, we can notice when it arises, and choose to show up for ourselves and our children in a way that is nurturing, loving, and less pushing. We can instead choose to walk alongside and guide.
Most parents worry about their children's choices and desires, especially when they are different from their own. If your child is not as achievement focused as you it's often triggering. Mindfulness, nervous system retraining, and coaching can help both you and your children settle into the journey of life without partaking of toxic achievement culture.
We talk about the influence of scarcity mindset and catastrophizing. The common worry amongst parents is that they're not caring enough or doing enough, and that their child might be harmed by this.
What is your job as a parent?
What kind of a parent do you want to be?
What do you want to model for your children?
Where are you showing up even if quietly judging yourself and or your children
What if you and your children are adequate, above average, more than enough?
What kind of parent would your future self wish you had been?

It is very hard for those of us in medicine to pause or slow down.
We were trained and acculturated to think that the pause and rest are not worthwhile.
We were trained to think that pausing and resting is complacent and/or lazy. If we were to pause or rest we would definitely fall behind.
In actuality-- the more you do the more you need to rest.
Our society glorifies busy, empty, and exhausted. We are addicted to busyness and productivity. This leads us to burnout, exhaustion, frustration, and overwhelm.
Taking time to rest and recharge is an undervalued step in being maximally efficient while creating a sustainable life and career.
When we pause and are present with ourselves we have an increased capacity to be present with others.
When we model for those around us how to take agency over our own lives, we set an example.
What message do we send when we don't?Are you addicted to busy, action, moving, doing?
Is true rest and/or relaxation hard or uncomfortable for you?
What stories do you tell yourself about pausing and the value of rest and recovery?
How could you bring in breaks and pockets of rest into your days?
If you want to learn to prioritize the pause, perform at the highest level, and have a sustainable career and family life, I invite you to coach with me www.jessiemahoneymd.com

Do you think there is a right and wrong way to go about change? And/or a right or wrong time to change?
Is the fear of making a mistake holding you back from change?
When you are âsuccessfulâ it is harder to change.
What makes charge hard for those trained in medicine?
We assume negative outcomes and tend to catastrophize.
We focus on negative what ifâs and we donât like uncertainty.
We like control, plans, and evidence-based action.
We tend to be people pleasers and don't want to disappoint.
We are often over-responsible at the expense of ourselves (martyrdom).
We tend to be risk-avoidant and afraid of making mistakes.
What is needed to finally change and have it stick?
You have to want to change yourself -- instead of wanting others or things outside of you to change
You need to move towards something rather than away from something
You need to believe in yourself and trust the process
You need to practice effective energy management
You need to practice healthy nervous system care
You need to learn to practice self-compassion, neutrality, acceptance, and kindness
You need to support yourself well
You need to be willing to invest time and energy into change itself
Listen to the episode to learn more.
If you want to make a change in your own life and/or are in the midst of career and/or life pivots, join Transition Well, Ongoing Presence, or a Sagrada CME Retreat.

Pearls of wisdom shared in this episode
It is not enough to simply continue to put on bandaids.
You will never be free until you can be still with your pain.
Love is a discipline.
The armor we create can become a cage of the size of our own body and mind.
Begin again.
Donât wait.
