Joy in Family Medicine Coaching

Joy in Family Medicine Coaching I'm a family physician with over 20 years of experience, 16 years in academics. They've worked too hard to settle. Coaching is an evidence-based powerful tool.

Academic Physician Coach partners with FM Residencies to reconnect family medicine residents & attendings with joy in the job - partnering to build and sustain joy-filled careers from the ground up. I'm an ICF PCC accredited professional coach that works with family medicine residency programs and individual residents, faculty, and early career family physicians. I remain active as on-call faculty at Alaska Family Medicine Residency and fill in at the local FQHC. I believe in giving critical tools along with empowering coaching inside the incubator of primary care - family medicine residencies. Family physicians deserve to not only avoid burnout but find joy in their careers by taking back their agency, enhancing their energy, and integrating work with the fullness of life.

Last Friday, I wrote about what happens when Justice meets the Judge.

You know that voice that wants fairness and high standards?

Turns out, it has a shadow side. When our best values get distorted - Justice into judgment, Excellence into perfectionism - that's when things get heavy.

This is what I explore on LinkedIn every Friday. Different topics each week: the patterns I'm seeing in coaching, the questions that keep coming up, the things worth thinking about more deeply.

Real reflections. Real conversations in the comments.

Another talk about wellness? Not exactly.

Alongside Kim Downey and Nikolai Blinow, LMHC, I joined Kevin Pho, M.D. to talk about what it really takes to sustain physicians.

Grateful for the thoughtful space Kim and Kevin create for these conversations and for the chance to explore how shifting from wellness to well-being can open the door to deeper questions about connection, culture, and what truly supports us in this work.

Friday Diversion Post: AI Goes Camping!

My grandlittle was coloring this page at a restaurant when she asked why the fire was inside the tent. My daughter explained it was probably made by AI.

It became a family appetizer activity - like Highlights, Hidden Pictures by AI.

Later, I turned to Scribbs (my personal Chat) and said do you think this was AI generated, who ironically said “Definitely AI” and then gave the clues:
- Firepit blazing inside the tent (cozy disaster)
- Log in an odd place by tent flap
- Ladybug in a backpack while another is crawling around camp (identity crisis)
- Moon hanging out in full daylight around the ?sun?
- Tent with a random window grid
- And, as my daughter noted, the “ladybug” looks suspiciously like a Mario mushroom sidekick
