Many thanks to Nate Reineke, CFP, Primary Advisor, Student Loan Specialist, and College Planning Specialist at Physician Family Financial Advisors. He also co-hosts his company's podcast.

While physicians are relatively high earners, they start earning late in life and often have little financial training. Nate's firm helps physicians manage their financial planning. Physician Family Financial Advisors have served physicians exclusively for the last 20 years. They avoid conflicts of interest by not selling financial products and advise physicians based on a monthly subscription fee.

During our 30-minute program, Nate discussed why early retirement may not be the best choice, the effect of children on financial planning, and how to avoid physician burnout. We touched on "lifestyle creep" and the problem of excessive spending. Nate also mentioned locum tenens as a potentially less stressful work option.

Many thanks to Bijoy John, MD, a board-certified sleep specialist and author of "Nobody's Sleeping: 7 Proven Sleep Strategies for Better Health and Happiness." It's a comprehensive guide for better sleep regardless of age or sleep problem. "Nobody's Sleeping" has a 5-star rating on Amazon and received the 2024 International Impact Book Award for Health.

During our 30-minute interview, Dr. Bijoy discusses how alcohol, exercise, cell phone, iPad, other screens, and snoring can affect proper sleep. According to Dr. Bijoy, falling asleep is not like an "on/off" switch. It requires preparation. He shares his tips for preparing for sleep with the acronym "SLEEPNOW."

Dr. Bijoy addresses the role of melatonin and medications in treating sleep disorders. He also highlights the physiologic and mental health price of not treating sleep problems.

Many thanks to David Weill, MD, former Director of the Center for Advanced Lung Diseases and the Lung and Heart-Lung Transplant Program at Stanford University Medical Center. Dr. Weill is the author of the new novel “All That Really Matters” and the memoir “Exhale”. He’s working on a 3rd book to be published next year.

I read “All That Really Matters” and couldn’t put it down. Although I am not a transplant surgeon like the protagonist, we definitely shared some similar experiences during our training and early careers. The novel leads us through the complex world of organ transplants, with the author as an expert guide. Even those without a medical background will have no difficulty following the plot and may perhaps identify with a character or two. Dr. Weill told me that the novel was a vehicle that allowed him explore the moral and ethical issues involved in human organ transplant.

During our 30-minute discussion, Dr. Weill filled me in on his 20 years of life-saving organ transplant work. Although immensely gratifying, this 24/7 activity wreaked havoc on his work/life balance. Finally, Dr. Weill left his position as Director of the Transplant Program at Stanford to become Principal of the Weill Consulting Group, which focuses on improving the delivery of pulmonary, ICU, and transplant care. This transition allowed him to move back to his hometown of New Orleans, continue to help improve the transplant system, and provided an opportunity for him to write.

During our interview, we also discussed the practicalities and rewards of writing fiction, his long-term goals, and how he gets the writing done.

It was indeed a pleasure interviewing David Weill! More about David can be found on his website: www.DavidWeill.com.

You can purchase “All That Really Matters” or “Exhale” on Amazon.
