  • Rewriting Your Story with Jillian Johnsrud: Mini-Retirements and Breaking the Burnout Cycle
    2025/12/24
    In this episode, Dr. Resa E. Lewiss speaks with Jillian Johnsrud, author of Retire Often and mini-retirement coach, about taking intentional career breaks to combat burnout and realign with what matters most. Jillian defines mini-retirements as breaks of a month or longer where professionals step away from their primary career to focus on recovery, adventure, or family time. She works primarily with high-achieving professionals who have over-indexed on career advancement while under-indexing on lifestyle and wellbeing. The conversation explores the unique challenges facing healthcare professionals, including a dangerous cultural narrative instilled during medical training that physicians must suffer, lack agency, and simply endure. This programming makes it extraordinarily difficult for doctors to prioritize their own health and take necessary breaks.

  • Quite Literally Books: Finding Voice Through Forgotten Women
    2025/12/10
    In today's conversation Bremond Berry MacDougall and Lisa Endo Cooper, the duo behind Quite Literally Books talk about their heritage press republishing forgotten works by women authors. Lisa and Bremond share their journey of starting a heritage press without prior business experience. They describe the steep learning curve of navigating production, marketing, and sales. The physical design of their books reflects meticulous attention to detail. They use premium Munken paper milled in Europe, custom typography by designer Louise Fili, and lay-flat dispersion binding that allows one-handed reading without breaking the spine. Some book covers feature work by artist Anthony Russo. Their literary mission centers on republishing works that reveal how little has changed in over a century regarding issues of gender, race, and sexuality. They navigate the complex legacies of authors, acknowledging that women can be both progressive and flawed. Their first three releases explored the theme of home. The November release includes Herland by Charlotte Perkins Gilman, a cookbook from the 1890s, and all examining themes of home and domestic power.

  • An Emergency Physician and a Children’s Book: Shan Liu Honors Her Great-Grandfather and his Innovation
    2025/12/03
    What happens when an emergency medicine physician discovers that the N95 mask she's wearing every day during the COVID-19 pandemic was invented by her own great-great-grandfather over a century ago? Dr. Shan Liu joins me for a conversation that weaves together family legacy, innovation from the margins, and the power of storytelling to fight racism. Shan is an emergency medicine physician at Mass General Hospital, an assistant professor at Harvard Medical School, and a children's book author. Her award-winning book, Masked Hero: How Wu Lien-Teh Invented the Mask That Ended an Epidemic, tells the remarkable story of her great-great-great-grandfather who created the first respiratory mask during the 1910 Manchurian plague outbreak. Wu Lien-Teh was the first Chinese Malaysian to study medicine at Cambridge, faced relentless racism throughout his career, and became the first Chinese person nominated for a Nobel Prize in medicine. We talk about how the pandemic brought this family story full circle. Shan shares what it was like working on the frontlines while her great-grandfather's innovation was suddenly everywhere, the frustration of watching public health lessons from Asia being ignored, and the anti-Asian sentiment that was rising around her. Out of that stress and passion came a book project with her then-first-grade daughter, born from a simple desire to show her children Asian heroes and give hope that masks could end the pandemic.

  • EM Over Easy: Andy Little Cracks Open AI in Medical Education and A More Healthy Visible Voice
    2025/11/26
    Andy Little DO, co-founder and host of EM Over Easy podcast, shares how the show was born in a Columbus OH diner during post-night shift breakfasts—mental health check-ins that evolved into conversations about leadership skills they weren't learning in residency. As a first-generation physician from small-town Montana, Andy never had "the playbook" for navigating medicine, relying on college counselors and ED mentors who gave him opportunities and trusted him to run with them. We discuss the closing MD/DO perception gap, his teaching philosophy of calculated trust (the "10-second countdown" for critical patients), and how the emergency department teaches perspective through patient stories. Andy explains AI's current "confidently incompetent intern" phase in medical education and his mission: Mentor everyone including those navigating medicine without a roadmap.
