  • Episode 99: Transformative Career Coaching for Physicians: Focusing on Balance and Intentional Living
    Dec 9 2024

    Welcome to the Sustainable Clinical Medicine Podcast, where we explore innovative strategies for creating more efficient and balanced clinical days.

    Today, we have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Jattu Senesie, a board-certified OBGYN who has courageously reshaped her career to prioritize well-being and sustainability. Dr. Senesie shares her transformative journey from enduring the pressures and expectations of traditional medical practice to becoming a renowned coach for early-career physicians, focusing on intentional career transitions and life design.

    Join us as we explore how Dr. Senesie overcame feelings of dissatisfaction and burnout, and learn valuable strategies for keeping well-being at the core of your professional journey. Whether you're navigating the challenges of medical training or seeking a more sustainable approach to your career, this episode provides a wealth of wisdom and encouragement.

    Here are 3 key takeaways from this episode:

    1. Start with Well-being: Success and personal fulfillment can coexist. It's crucial to incorporate well-being as a cornerstone in your career and life planning.
    2. Shift from Survival to Sustainability: Move beyond the survival mindset from medical training and cultivate habits that respect your own priorities as well as those of others.
    3. Recognize and Address Needs Early: Be proactive about understanding and meeting your personal needs to avoid burnout and enhance career longevity.

    Dr. Jattu Senesie Bio:

    Dr. Jattu Senesie is a board-certified obstetrician-gynecologist, self-described recovering pathological altruist and native of the Washington DC metropolitan area. She is an alumna of the University of Maryland Baltimore County where she graduated magna cum laude with a degree in Biological Sciences. Her medical training took her to Emory University School of Medicine in Atlanta, GA. There she obtained her medical degree and completed her residency training in the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics. Dr Senesie returned to the DC area after training and spent six years in a private obstetrics and gynecology practice in Maryland.

    Dr Senesie retired from clinical practice at age 35 in an attempt to find a balance between maintaining her own sense of well-being and living a life of service. Since leaving clinical medicine, she has become a personal and professional development coach and physician satisfaction specialist through her business Essence of Strength. Because of her own experience, Dr Senesie’s particular passion is helping early career physicians to be as intentional about the factors impacting their sense of satisfaction and well-being as they have been about those contributing to their success.

    Through individual coaching, workshops, writing and speaking, she seeks to help her fellow healthcare professionals develop the mindset and the methods necessary to sustain their full potential inside and outside the clinical setting.
