In this raw, revealing episode, I take you behind the scenes of my journey to reclaim my physical and mental health while working in one of medicine's most demanding specialties. After years of neglecting my physical fitness, I'm now chasing two ambitious goals and I also challenge y’all to set a goal completely unrelated to your title as a doctor.

I discuss:
0:00 Introduction.
02:04 My fitness goals of breaking 20 minutes in a 5K and bench pressing 250 pounds.
05:59 My background.
08:20 Why these goals?
18:56 The importance of being healthy both mentally & physically as a doctor.
22:20 How I train.
29:45 How I find time to work out as a trauma surgeon.
