Do you struggle with sleep? If you do, you’re not alone. Thankfully, long time listener and now guest, Val Cacho, MD. is joining me to chat about all things sleep. Listen as she shares about her career journey and why she’s so invested in helping women get more and better sleep.

Dr. Val Cacho is triple board certified in internal, sleep, and integrative medicine. She is passionate about inspiring her patients to obtain optimal sleep health and wellness through integrative, holistic, and lifestyle medicine approaches. Because your lack of sleep can stem from a wide variety of places.

In May of 2020 Val had her second baby and soon after returning to work, realized that she couldn’t practice medicine in an institutional environment anymore.

After being pushed by the universe, friends, family, and colleagues, Val opened her own practice and began creating content to help women around the world get better sleep.

427: All Things Plastic Surgery with Fadi Nuckta, MD

As we all know, the practice of medicine is complex. It doesn’t matter if you’re a neurosurgeon, an orthopedic, in family medicine, or if you’re in plastic surgery. Where you thought you’d be when you were in residency may look completely different from where you are now.

I got to chat all about this with Fadi Nuckta, a double board-certified cosmetic plastic surgeon. He started his career doing reconstructive surgery and realized that he needed a change. Listen as he shares his story and what gave him the confidence to go all in with cosmetic plastic surgery.

“One thing that made my decision easier to switch from reconstruction to aesthetics was I thought to myself, well, I can go back.” Fadi Nuckta, MD

429: Reboot Showcase - The Truth About “Success” is That Sometimes it’s A Trap… with Dr. Errin Weisman

Welcome to the Doctor Me First Reboot Showcase where we are spotlighting the amazing podcasts and podcasters who have interviewed ME. Over the next several months we will be sprinkling in interviews I’ve done on other shows to highlight other amazing podcasts. This episode is from the Changing The Story with Lana Dingwall podcast.

This week I want to share a beautiful conversation I had with Errin Weisman about a topic that many of us can relate to and have probably experienced to a certain degree in our business or careers.

It’s the idea of sacrificing everything in our life to pursue a “good profession” and then once we’ve made it realizing that we actually feel empty and have lost so many years just blindly hustling without stopping to appreciate what’s in front of us. It’s waiting for the delayed gratification to come and realizing that it’s not going to come.

Errin Weisman is a family physician turned life coach who is all about calling out the bullshit on the hustle culture. She did what many professionals might be afraid to do: moving out of a career that we’re told by society is “good” and that we’ve “made it” - and instead pursuing a career like coaching where there is so much judgment and negativity that it’s not a “real job”.

If you want to hear more on this topic, check out this week’s podcast episode.

On the episode, we discuss:

The cost of security and safety
Burnout from being out of alignment
Defining success on our own terms

I believe in you - you are doing way better than you realize!
