Episode 112: The Charting Champions Effect: Physicians Redefine Work Boundaries in Medicine

Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast!

In this episode our host Dr. Sarah Smith welcomes two distinguished guests and Charting Champion Members, Dr. Jabiz Behzadpour, an outpatient endocrinologist, and Dr. Mary Moya, a seasoned Family Physician and Faculty Member in San Diego. Together, they share their transformative journeys from feeling overwhelmed with charting and administrative tasks to gaining control and finding harmony in their clinical days.

Dr. Behzadpour reveals how the shift from academics to real-world practice prompted her to seek support within the Charting Champions community, leading to profound changes in her work-life balance.

Meanwhile, Dr. Moya discusses her two-decade-long struggle with work encroaching on her personal life and how adopting new mindset shifts and strategies helped her reclaim her time and passion for medicine.

Join us as we explore their paths to sustainable clinical practice, the lessons learned, and the newfound joys they discovered outside of medicine. Whether you're an early career physician or a seasoned practitioner, this episode offers invaluable insights into making your clinical day more manageable and fulfilling.

Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode:

1. Mindset Shift: Sometimes, it's not about finding more time, but reorganizing what you have. Dr. Behzadpour emphasized the importance of a mindset shift and sitting in discomfort to control her workday more effectively.
2. Containment of Work: Dr. Moya highlighted the power of containing work to specific hours, which allowed her to explore hobbies like painting and spending more time in nature, significantly improving her quality of life.
3. Continuous Improvement and Community Support: Finding a support network and being open to trying different strategies can lead to significant improvements. Dr. Behzadpour and Dr. Moya both stress the importance of community in discovering new approaches to sustainably manage their clinical tasks.
