In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I share a story from early in my career when I sublet out of two clinics and thought I was being smart by “hedging my bets.” What actually happened was predictable: split focus, slow growth, wasted energy, and no real momentum.

I unpack why trying to keep all your options open feels safe but is one of the most expensive mistakes practitioners make, especially when building a practice.

Indecision drains your attention, and attention is your most valuable asset. I explain why the cost of the wrong decision is almost always lower than the cost of no decision, how fear disguises itself as responsibility, and why committing to one direction is often the fastest way forward.

If you’re stuck juggling locations, ideas, or contingencies and wondering why nothing is clicking, this episode will help you understand what’s really holding you back.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I talk about the outsized power the one-star review holds in Chinese medicine and why fear of being disliked is quietly undermining clinical authority, boundaries, and self-respect.

I break down how people-pleasing masquerades as kindness, why running your practice like the hospitality industry erodes trust, and how making decisions from fear leads to burnout and resentment. I explain why specialists don’t win on star ratings alone, how integrity matters more than universal approval, and why learning to let people be wrong about you is a core leadership skill.

If you’ve ever bent your policies, overridden your instincts, or kept a patient you knew you shouldn’t because you were afraid of a bad review, this episode will help you reclaim your authority and practice medicine like a doctor again.

In this episode of Better Skills. Better Doctors., I talk about the rising sense of despair many people are feeling in response to the state of the world and why staying stuck in that despair doesn’t serve you, your patients, or your purpose.

I explore how our brains are wired to fixate on the negative, how media algorithms profit from that bias, and why giving equal airtime to what’s good in your life is a radical act of mental hygiene.

I share how I personally navigate feelings of overwhelm by asking, “Who do I want to be while feeling this way?” This episode is a call to reclaim your focus, protect your energy, and stay grounded in reality. Not because things are easy, but because your work still matters.
