Jeff welcomes to the podcast certified physician coach and physician executive, Dr. Terri Malcolm.

Terri reminds us that emotions play a pivotal role in our actions, behaviors, and thoughts. As physicians, it’s important for us to be emotional scientists. As a physician coach, Terri strongly believes that we need to attain a better understanding of who we are and how we tick by tapping into our emotions.

As physicians and especially surgeons, we’re often taught to bottle up our emotions, but so much of how we behave is based on how we’re feeling. It’s essential that we dig into these emotions so we can better manage our actions, attitudes, and behaviors. 

While it isn’t easy for surgeons to do this, what simple steps does Terri suggest we do to build our emotional vocabulary?

  • Step 1 –Try a 1-5-7 Model. Find 5 times throughout the day to check in briefly with your emotional self for 7 consecutive days.
  • Step 2 –  Step 2 –  Identify Your Emotions. At each of those 5 moments, identify the emotion that you’re feeling. 
  • Step 3 – Reflect on Your Dominant Emotions. On that 7th day, reflect back on your dominant emotions and assess how well those emotions were serving you in doing what you do, or in accomplishing your short- and long-term goals.

Most importantly, PRACTICE tapping into your emotions!
