  • Humanizing Healthcare & Understanding Chronic Illness: Eva's Guest Interview on Planning On Call Podcast

    Humanizing Healthcare & Understanding Chronic Illness: Eva's Guest Interview on Planning On Call Podcast
    29 Jun 2021
    Helping individuals with chronic illness can be very difficult because there are not always clear answers to their problems. That can be challenging, especially for doctors whose years of training have taught them to find problems and ultimately fix those problems. To overcome this, Eva stresses the importance of making a human connection with patients and validating their pain even if there may not be clear answers to their problems. Eva remarks in our conversation that the focus needs to be on not just the patient, but also the relationship. – Tim Hamilton, host of Planning on CallThis week is a little different - we’re re-publishing Eva’s guest interview on the Planning on Call podcast! Hosted by Tim Hamilton, CFP®, CIMA, CSLP, ‘Planning on Call’ is a series of podcasts, blog posts, and other content focused on providing medical professionals, and their spouses, the important information they need to know as they plan their future. Other episodes of the Planning on Call podcast can be found here:https://atlaspwm.com/category/planning-on-callIn this episode of Planning on Call, Eva and Tim discuss the following: ·      Eva’s build-block story that led to her chronic conditions and related career path·      Her views on the disconnect between doctor-patient relationships·      How to humanize healthcare You can listen to this episode on the original Planning on Call podcast here:https://atlaspwm.com/planning-on-call-blog-12-humanizing-healthcare-chronic-illnessApple PodcastsSpotifyLibsyn You can also find out more about Tim and financial planning resources for medical professionals here: https://atlaspwm.com/medical-professionals Eva’s bio from the original Planning on Call show, written by Tim Hamilton: I had an amazing conversation with Eva Minkoff in my latest episode of Planning on Call. In this episode, I had the opportunity to learn about living with chronic illness and the support structures that can be built through humanizing healthcare. A Planning on Call listener connected me to Eva because they thought she had a unique perspective to discuss, and I could not agree more! Chronic illness and its treatment is a topic I knew very little about before speaking with Eva. I found our conversation very illuminating personally, so I hope it resonates with listeners as well. Eva has an impressive background which consists of but is not limited to being a serial entrepreneur in healthcare, Nutrition Scientist, and NASM Certified Personal Trainer. She also has spent a lot of time developing an impactful podcast, [Human]Care . This podcast features conversations with health entrepreneurs, care professionals from all walks of life, patient advocates, and industry change-makers all with the mission to humanize healthcare… and is part of a top-rated chronic illness podcast and network, Invisible Not Broken. Also, you can listen to her TEDx Talk, “5 Minutes to Fix Our Broken Healthcare System”, this talk boldly hypothesizes how elevating the patient-physician relationship through a proposed structured conversation can improve the healthcare systems. Eva has dealt with chronic illness in her own life, suffering from Fibromyalgia, Hypermobile Ehlers Danlos Syndrome, and Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (among other ailments). Navigating the difficulties of living with, diagnosing, and treating chronic illness for most of her life has given her the firsthand experience needed to help find solutions for other individuals living, struggling, and persevering with chronic illnesses.

  • The Impact of Illness on Family Dynamics: Clorinda Walley

    The Impact of Illness on Family Dynamics: Clorinda Walley
    25 May 2021
    THE IMPACT OF ILLNESS ON FAMILY DYNAMICS: CLORINDA WALLEY“I don’t regret any of it. I probably would have done it differently. But I didn’t. You don’t get to choose what’s happened to you when it’s happening.” -Clorinda WalleyAbout Clorinda: Clorinda Walley is the President of the Good Days charity, which funds medical expenses for those with chronic conditions. Clorinda has over 20 years of experience in the healthcare industry and over 12 years in strategic philanthropy. As a member of the chronic illness community herself, Clorinda has ulcerative colitis, migraines, Hashimoto’s disease, arthritis, endometriosis, clotting disorder, and ADHD. Clorinda is also 1 of 13 siblings, and many of her siblings also have chronic conditions like Raynaud’s, Sjogren’s, and psoriasis. In short, living with and caring for people in this community has been her entire life. Now, Clorinda has made it her mission through Good Days to promote preventional medicine, given that so many of our chronic conditions are, in fact, preventable or at least well-managed through healthy lifestyles and attention to well-being. Clorinda’s illness journey has taught her how to care, how to caregive, and how to be a voice for those suffering from chronic disease.In this episode, Clorinda and Eva discuss:Importance of relationships and being held accountable for your healthKnowing the role that you and your support network play in your chronic illness journeyHow to develop realistic expectations about your healthTimestamps 4:55- 52:08 Clorinda’s chronic illness journey54:17-57:31 How to be efficient when dealing with a health crisis57:36-1:00:56 When expectations don’t match up with reality1:00:57- 1:07:30 When relationships fall apart1:07:41-1:14:26 Keeping the lines of communication open1:14:42-1:18:10 What to do when you don’t have a support system1:18:37-1:20:04 How to meet people on their level of the chronic illness journey1:21:06-1:24:03 What we can do to lower the number of people dealing with chronic diseaseClorinda’s links: Good Days’ Website: www.mygooddays.orgGood Days’ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mygooddaysorgGood Days’ Twitter: https://twitter.com/MyGoodDaysInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/gooddaysorg/Additional Interview Question Responses:Could you give us a brief snapshot of what your daily life is like? What is your “normal”?I have had to adjust over the years since my initial struggle with Ulcerative Colitis. I am happy to say that most days now I manage well. I no longer have to take a plethora of medications and any discomfort that I have is manageable.What does “trust” mean to you in the patient-practitioner relationship?I found that trust goes two ways. It is not a matter of taking everything at face value and moving on. I learned that is okay to ask questions. To be your own advocate. I also had to take accountability for my care and be a diligent patient. Make my appointments, document my illness, discuss concerns and follow my treatment plan. And also to be okay if something is not working and trying something else. The same diagnosis does not mean the same care. Listen to what your body is telling you and discuss it with your provider. A road map to autoimmune diseases does not exist. They affect people differently. Document your path and find the practitioner that will listen, answer questions and work on creating your personal road map and treatment plan.What are you most passionate about in regard to your work/helping people?No one wants to get sick. The one thing I have found is everyone wants to have more time. More time to create experiences and lasting memories. More time to love and be loved. I believe we all have a collective responsibility to help people any way we can. I want people to know they are not alone. I want to create a connection that comes from heart. I am passionate about providing hope and more good days to anyone I touch.  CLICK HERE FOR FULL TRANSCRIPT. PLEASE SUPPORT US BY: SHARING WITH LOVED ONES 😍SUBSCRIBING + LEAVING A RATING & REVIEW 👍DON’T FORGET TO LISTEN & SUBSCRIBE TO EACH OF OUR PODCASTS:EXPLICITLY SICK WITH MONICAHUMANCARE WITH EVADISCOMFORT ZONE WITH JASONSEX AND CHRONIC ILLNESS WITH DR.

  • Chronic Illness Trauma Treatment With Mindfulness: Veronique Mead

    Chronic Illness Trauma Treatment With Mindfulness: Veronique Mead
    4 May 2021

    Chronic Illness Trauma Treatment With Mindfulness: Veronique Mead

    “There are things like a mindfulness practice where you actually look at and work with and practice being with yourself as you are without judging and that's part of how I discovered my first triggers- by really paying attention and not thinking about my body is broken, but thinking about it as responding intelligently to what's going on in the world.”

    – Veronique Mead

    About Veronique: Veronique Mead was an Assistant Professor of Family Medicine and a practicing physician when she changed careers to retrain as a Somatic Trauma Therapist. 


    For the past 20 years she has been integrating the science and her personal journey of gradual recovery from disabling chronic fatigue syndrome into a new model for making sense of chronic illnesses of all kinds.


    Her research explains how effects of trauma are not psychological as is still often mistakenly believed. Veronique shares the model and science she never learned in her medical training on her blog, Chronic Illness Trauma Studies.

     

    In this episode, Veronique, and Eva discuss:

    Approaches for addressing trauma

    The impact that trauma can have on relationships

    Listening to your body when seeking treatment
