We’ve turned intuition into a buzzword—flattened it into a slogan, a gut feeling, or a vague whisper we don’t always know how to hear. But what if intuition is so much more? What if it's one of the most powerful tools we have—and we’ve just forgotten how to use it? In this episode, I’m joined by Hrund Gunnsteinsdóttir , Icelandic thought leader, filmmaker, and author of InnSæi: Icelandic Wisdom for Turbulent Times . Hrund has spent over 20 years studying and teaching the science and art of intuition through her TED Talk, Netflix documentary ( InnSæi: The Power of Intuition ), and global work on leadership, innovation, and inner knowing. Together, we explore what intuition really is (hint: not woo-woo), how to cultivate it in a culture obsessed with logic and overthinking, and why your ability to listen to yourself might be the most essential skill you can develop. In This Episode, We Cover: ✅ Why we’ve misunderstood intuition—and how to reclaim it ✅ Practical ways to strengthen your intuitive muscle ✅ What Icelandic wisdom teaches us about inner knowing ✅ How to use intuition during uncertainty and decision-making ✅ Why trusting yourself is an act of rebellion (and power) Intuition isn’t magic—it’s a deep, internal guidance system that already exists inside you. The question is: are you listening?

If you’re a physician with at least 5 years of experience looking for a flexible, non-clinical, part-time medical-legal consulting role… ...Dr. Armin Feldman's Medical Legal Coaching program will guarantee to add $100K in additional income within 12 months without doing any expert witness work. Any doctor in any specialty can do this work. And if you don’t reach that number, he’ll work with you for free until you do, guaranteed. How can he make such a bold claim? It's simple, he gets results… Dr. David exceeded his clinical income without sacrificing time in his full-time position. Dr. Anke retired from her practice while generating the same monthly consulting income. And Dr. Elliott added meaningful consulting work without lowering his clinical income or job satisfaction. So, if you’re a physician with 5+ years of experience and you want to find out exactly how to add $100K in additional consulting income in just 12 months, go to arminfeldman.com . =============== Learn the business and management skills you need by enrolling in the University of Tennessee Physician Executive MBA program at nonclinicalphysicians.com/physicianmba .

After experiencing burnout from corporate medicine's unattainable metrics and assembly-line patient loads, Dr. Hakimi discovered DPC—a membership-based model where patients pay a flat monthly fee (around $150) for unlimited access to their physician through calls, texts, and visits. John and Dr. Hakimi discuss how this approach eliminates insurance bureaucracy while delivering remarkable benefits: deeply discounted labs, imaging, and medications; unhurried appointments; and the freedom to practice medicine according to one's own values rather than corporate metrics. With only 150 patients (compared to thousands in traditional practice), Dr. Hakimi operates with minimal overhead, no staff, and complete autonomy—creating a practice that not only better serves her "members" (she doesn't call them patients because "they're not sick") but has restored her professional joy. Their candid conversation reveals how physicians at breaking points with corporate medicine might find salvation in this model without needing to abandon clinical practice or compromise their incomes.

After finding himself buried in credit card debt as an intern despite his elite education, Dr. Yeh shares his compelling journey through financial education and the eventual development of sophisticated investment techniques that required monitoring just once monthly. His approach focuses on risk mitigation rather than aggressive returns, using mathematical filters borrowed from his radiology background to identify market trends and protect investments from major downturns. John and Dr. Yeh dive into the differences between the three financial industry sectors (banking, brokerage, and insurance), clarify the often-confusing regulatory environment, and discuss practical advice for physicians considering career transitions. Dr. Yeh emphasizes viewing wealth through the lens of time—measuring how many years you could comfortably survive without additional income—and recommends specific financial runway requirements for various career pivot scenarios, from six months for job transitions to five years for building a new business.

After nearly a decade in medicine, Dr. Benson realized she was caught in an endless cycle of chasing approval and achievement—from being first in her medical school class to earning "best fellow" honors at Cleveland Clinic. She shares her four-year journey to break free from perfectionism and fear of rejection, which began with exploring creative pursuits while still practicing and culminated in paying off $250,000 in medical school debt before giving six months' notice to her practice. Dr. Benson discusses her post-medicine path, including becoming a professional artist with a unique beeswax technique, learning to play cello, embarking on an eight-month RV journey across America, and eventually settling in Floyd, Virginia to pursue homesteading. She also explains how her coaching practice evolved from project management to helping clients overcome "barrier beliefs," culminating in her "Brave is Beautiful Circle" program designed specifically for women physicians seeking authenticity and creativity.

Laura distinguishes between fleeting passions and deeper purpose, explaining that professional satisfaction comes from identifying both your "genius" (intellectual challenge) and "purpose" (intrinsic motivation). She guides listeners through practical techniques for self-observation, documenting moments of peak engagement, and recognizing patterns in fulfilling work experiences that reveal their unique strengths. For physicians feeling trapped or unfulfilled, Laura's approach offers a pathway to break free from conformity in medicine.

First appearing in the early 2000’s, this type of practice is characterized by the elimination of third party payers. In most cases, insurance billing is replaced by a subscription or “membership” model in which patients prepay for their care on a monthly or quarterly basis. The typical DPC practice agrees to provide a comprehensive set of outpatient services that meet the needs of most patients. Hospitalizations and high-cost surgeries are generally covered by traditional insurance. Under this model, the elimination of insurance billing results in lower overhead, less paperwork, fewer employees, and better access by expanding the use of texting, phone calls, email, and telemedicine. Office visits are generally longer and more comprehensive with less time spent on paperwork. While originally designed for primary care, there are examples of specialty-based DPC-style payment arrangements. John describes why this can be the solution to burnout and a way to recover the joy of practicing medicine while earning a very good income. He also explains that creating a DPC practice requires extensive planning and significant financial resources, but less than opening a traditional practice. And he offers his thoughts on transitioning from employment to your own DPC practice. You'll find links mentioned in the episode at nonclinicalphysicians.com/direct-primary-care-practice/…

He earned a Bachelor of Science in Chemical and Biomedical Engineering from Carnegie Mellon University and a Doctor of Medicine (MD) from New York University School of Medicine. While his early career in radiology and clinical operations brought professional success, it also exposed him to the limitations of traditional Western medicine in addressing the deeper causes of human discontent. The turning point came when Dr. Katyal discovered Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) and became a certified hypnotherapist and RTT therapist in 2024. His transformation through RTT, including overcoming a deep-seated fear, reinforced his belief in the power of addressing subconscious limiting beliefs. During today’s interview, Dr. Katyal describes the limitations of positive psychology and the benefits of rapid transformational therapy. He then goes on to describe the explosion in mental illness in children and young adults since 2010.

Get a list of 70 nontraditional jobs at nonclinicalphysicians.com/70jobs . =============== In this week’s podcast episode, John addresses this question: Even if I’m burned out and frustrated, are there ways to stay in clinical medicine while achieving balance, satisfaction, and enjoyment? During this presentation, he discusses the following 5 options for remaining in clinical practice. Take another stab at addressing the circumstances leading to dissatisfaction by aggressively renegotiating your employment contract. Review your contract and identify the major issues causing your frustration. Develop a strategy for renegotiating those issues with your attorney. These typically involve vacation time and covering for others’ vacations, work hours, salary, restrictive covenants, and inadequate pay for collaborating with midlevel providers. If you’re looking for a new job, consider engaging an agent to represent you in contract negotiations with a new employer, often at no cost to you. Start a new practice or join one that does not bill insurance companies. Direct Primary Care and Concierge practices, and narrow-focused practices often enable the physicians to work on cash-only, fee-for-service, or membership models, and to create a better lifestyle and income. Almost any of us could start or transition to a narrow focused practice. John’s colleague was a full-time general pediatrician who transitioned to caring solely for patients with attention deficit disorder. He uses standard protocols for evaluation and management, and is an expert at billing for these services. He reduced his staff and overhead and his satisfaction and income have improved. Finally, for those who want to achieve many of the above advantages, and others, without starting a practice, working as a micro-corporation may be a great choice. Incorporating and working as an independent contractor for a large group or hospital system provides more tax benefits, flexible investment opportunities, and off-loading the expenses for rent and staffing.

He went one step further and worked for a venture capital firm during his first year of pediatric practice. Now he is the CEO of a start-up company and a part-time practicing pediatrician. The company he leads, Grapevyne, facilitates job searches for physicians while reducing the costs of recruitment to hospitals and medical groups. During our conversation today, Zhen describes what motivated him to attempt to balance 2 major careers so early in his career. Then we learn about his vision for Grapevyne, and what has been accomplished so far. He also provides details on the Grapevyne incentive program that encourages physicians to share job openings with each other by offering modest finders fees.

A business that thrived during the Covid Pandemic while other businesses were struggling. TJ Oshun emigrated from Nigeria 20 years ago. He became a physician assistant and enrolled in medical school. This was about 5 years before the Covid Pandemic hit. He was inspired to start his business when he saw how much difficulty patients faced because hospital emergency rooms were the only option for care at night and on weekends in his community. During our conversation, TJ described how he established CallonDoc, a company that started by connecting patients with medical providers by telephone. He quickly expanded to telehealth and telemedicine, hiring software engineers to build his own platform for delivering the care. He was well positioned when the pandemic occurred to provide the care needed during lockdowns. He explains how CallonDoc has flourished since then, providing care across the U.S., and how it has expanded into other service lines You'll find links mentioned in the episode at nonclinicalphysicians.com/fearless-medical-entrepreneur/…

In the past few years, he has presented interviews with physicians in many unconventional careers with the occasional episode devoted to hospital leadership. During the next few months, he will focus a bit more on opportunities that involve leadership roles in the hospital setting, because that is where most of the intense and expensive care is provided, and where he believes more physician leadership is needed. To start this series, he recommends considering your motives for pursuing this nonclinical career and provides tips for getting started. Then he spends several minutes describing how physician executives must shift their focus from being decisive tactical “doers” to becoming strategic delegating planners with a focus on organizational accountability. Finally, John describes the importance of personal accountability, optimism, and humility as key attributes for the developing physician leader.

Unlike other medical editors who spent years as a paid medical writer, Jennifer parlayed her involvement in a professional society and unpaid writing to land her new editor position. Jennifer is a Board-Certified Podiatric Physician and Surgeon with 14 years of clinical experience. She received her DPM degree from the Temple University School of Podiatric Medicine. Then she completed a three-year residency in podiatric medicine at Christian Care Health System. She spent over 5 years in national leadership positions at the American Association for Women Podiatrists (AAWP). While at the AAWP she was responsible for writing and editing the newsletter and other documents. That experience enabled her to land her position as Associate Editor for Podiatry Today. After working in that position for about 20 months, Jennifer was promoted to Senior Editor followed by Managing Editor at Podiatry Today. In July of 2022, she became one of the Assistant Editorial Directors at HMP Global, the parent company of Podiatry Today and a market leader in international healthcare education and clinician engagement.

Dr. Gilbaugh then established the Family Dental Center, near Cedar Rapids, which he has run for over 30 years. During his long career he was forced to rebuild his practice from the ground up not once, but twice due to “once in a lifetime” natural disasters. Then, when the dust finally settled, he was diagnosed with a physical disability that meant he could no longer practice dentistry and was forced to put his full focus on running the business side of his practice. This led to him establishing the Kalos Business Group through which he speaks and consults on leadership and business development, helping others in their journey to connect that which is most important with the area in which they spend the most time (their business).

Tod is a family physician who discovered that he could improve his autonomy and increase his income by incorporating and switching from employee to micro-corporation owner. In Episode 374 we learned that 10 years ago he discovered he could practice under a professional services agreement with the hospital system, so he incorporated and began working as a mini-corporation. We pick up the interview with Tod, who explains how he shifted from employment to working using a professional services agreement. Then, he discusses a variety of benefits that you can access under this new model. We also discuss the free and paid resources available to help physicians including his book, Doctor Incorporated: Stop the Insanity of Traditional Employment and Preserve Your Professional Autonomy , a blog, a membership program, free e-books, and consultation services. Before closing, we discuss other options for physicians seeking more fulfillment and control, including direct primary care and other cash-only practices, and compare them to the microcorporation employment-lite approach to contracting with an employer.
