Dr. Borad discusses coaching and support for medical students

Tue, 10 Oct 2023 09:00:00 -0800

Listen in as we discuss Dr. Borad’s career path and her training to become a coach specializing in helping medical students thrive!

Dr. Borad is a Concierge Family Medicine Physician and a coach for both medical students and Attending Physicians to prevent or treat burnout, gracefully manage all of the inevitable transitions that occur in a medical career, and discover a fulfilling career in medicine.

She had the opportunity to experience life in Academic medicine for several years, during which her greatest joy was teaching medical students to believe in their clinical skills, contemplate their specialty choices and the population they want to serve, and accept the uncertainty of the healthcare profession.

She was previously a Physician Leader (Clinic Medical Director, Department Wellness Director, and Department COVID-19 Lead Physician) and experienced burnout twice. During this time, she decided to invest in herself and collaborate with a Physician Coach, and it changed her life. She was able to develop the courage to acknowledge her burnout and openly discuss this with her supervisors. She advocated for myself to have a part-time schedule. She chose herself and walked away from a job that no longer aligned with her values. She found a way to practice medicine more sustainably (Concierge Medicine). She openly shared my experiences which had the ripple effect of allowing other burgeoning leaders to ask for more, ask for what they deserve. In fact, since she left her prior practice, they have allowed more Physicians to work part-time which has resulted in less burnout and more fulfillment amongst their Physicians.

Her breadth of experiences allows her to confidently coach any medical professional, and her focus is the two ends of a continuum: those at the beginning of their journey (medical students) and those entrenched in Physician hood (Attending Physicians). That being said, she has also been coaching resident Physicians, so she truly enjoy coaching Physicians through all stages of their journey.

Introduction to the Ottava Method and LadyDOx Boss Academy Mastermind

Mon, 11 Sep 2023 14:00:00 -0800

In this episode of right brain rounds Dr. Muller discusses her new book, The Ottava Method of Self-Coaching, as well as a new group coaching program for physician women, the LadyDOx Boss Academy.

The Ottava Method is a book that describes Dr. Muller’s philosophy of coaching and achieving goals. The method is rooted in musical, business and self-coaching principles, and can help ANYONE achieve goals. It was originally written with the physician women in mind, but after much contemplation it became a guide to help people achieve success in any field and in any aspect of life. Ottava is an Italian musical term that means “octave.” The term “8va” directs the musician to take the written music in a score up an octave, and the book is all about how people can “8va” their career—and their lives!

The LadyDOx Boss Academy is an 8-week group coaching Mastermind for physician women that is based on the Ottava Method of self-coaching. It will be led by Dr. Muller and will meet weekly to review each step of the method with the guidance of a certified physician development coach (Dr. Muller) to help! Here is a link to register for the course, which starts the week of October 2nd!

In this episode of Right Brain Rounds, we're joined by Alaine Noltt, a certified transitional and health coach, specializing in women over 45. As physicians, we often put others before ourselves, leading to burnout and neglecting our own well-being. Alaine helps us explore ways to maintain optimal health, achieve our goals, and find balance in our demanding careers.

About Alaine:

After living through a dangerous level of stress for 5 consecutive years, it was time to put my expertise, intuition, education, and love of people into coaching others. I received my masters in coaching, studying under health and wellness experts, and with applying my unique perspective I’ve gained from many experiences, I found the way to put my passion for helping people and recognizing the ease of a healthy lifestyle into motion. The capabilities of the body and mind are truly amazing. My work is a heart centered holistic approach to my vision of creating health for everyone I work with.

My greatest success is when I help my clients understand why they think the way they do, explore their belief systems, and how these impact their lifestyle. To see them take back control of their choices and see them thrive instead of survive…that’s why I coach.

I have 3 beautiful daughters ranging from ages 23-32, who each have diverse occupations. I enjoy almost all outdoor activities, including canyoneering, water sports, and tennis. I love being active in my local communities, including participating and planning charity events. Traveling and immersing myself in different cultures is exciting. I currently live between Arizona and Colorado.

Her singles Tranquility, Serenity, Trust and Presence are infused with healing prayers and intentions.

The Black Beauty Project is a collaboration between Candice Williams, Jasmine Colbert and Nena Lockhart, three friends who planned to come together for the Tea & Verse Poetry Salon's show to honor black women in poetry and music, conceptualized by Jasmine Colbert. Their show was unfortunately cancelled due to COVID 19, and they remained inspired to make music together. In considering next steps, Candice contemplated the plight of Black people in America and wrote a song that speaks to their collective beauty and worth. Nena and Jasmine were integral to bringing that vision to reality with their vocal talents and writing skill. In light of recent events from Brianna Taylor to George Floyd and the refrain of Black Lives Matter, as Black women they are standing up to declare the beauty and dignity of Black people everywhere.
