28. Passing the Mic #2 - Isaac Segura
<p>In this special episode, outgoing host Isaac Secura takes a seat on the other side of the mic as incoming host Jasmine Hader interviews him about his unconventional path to medicine. Isaac shares what drew him to psychiatry as "applied philosophy," how seven years of teaching, running a business, and doing international service work shaped the clinician he's becoming, and what it felt like to match into a child and adolescent psychiatry residency at the University of Utah — with a baby on the way. He also reflects on his time leading the Get Psyched podcast, the guests who left a lasting impression, and why he believes learning should always stay playful. A warm, candid handoff between two hosts.</p><p><br></p><p>Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):</p><p>https://uppbeat.io/t/cruen/city-streets</p><p>License code: 2JJVCBQKEE2GJH5N</p><p><br></p>

27. Modern Day Prophets: What People in Recovery Teach Us About Addiction, Dopamine, and Being Human | Anna Lempke
<p><strong>Dr. Anna Lembke on Addiction, Dopamine, and the Joy of Recovery</strong></p><p>In this episode, Isaac sits down with Dr. Anna Lembke — Stanford psychiatrist, bestselling author of Dopamine Nation, and leading voice in addiction medicine — for a wide-ranging conversation about how she found her calling treating addiction, the science behind why we struggle to stop, and why she believes this work is one of the most rewarding in medicine.</p><p>Dr. Lembke shares her winding path from Yale to China to Stanford, a pivotal clinical mistake involving a patient addicted to heroin she never thought to ask about, and what that experience taught her about the failures of medical education. Together, she and Isaac discuss the rise of poly-addictions and designer drugs, how to help patients understand cannabis is driving their anxiety, the case for radical self-disclosure in clinical care, and why people in long-term recovery are — in her words — "modern-day prophets."</p><p>Whether you're a future physician, a curious mind, or someone who has struggled with addiction personally, this conversation will shift how you think about dopamine, healing, and what it means to truly help another person.</p><p><strong>Topics covered:</strong></p><ul><li><p>Dr. Lembke's circuitous path from pathology to psychiatry to addiction medicine</p></li><li><p>Emerging addiction patterns: digital media, kratom, designer drugs, and poly-substance use</p></li><li><p>How to diagnose addiction using the "Four Cs"</p></li><li><p>The 80/20 rule: why stopping often resolves psychiatric symptoms</p></li><li><p>Helping patients experiment with abstinence to test their own beliefs</p></li><li><p>Integrating addiction care across medicine</p></li><li><p>Advice for medical students choosing a specialty</p></li><li><p>The power of self-disclosure in the doctor-patient relationship</p></li><li><p>What she'd keep — and what's evolved — since writing Dopamine Nation</p></li></ul><p>You can check out Dr. Lempke's book at Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Dopamine-Nation-Finding-Balance-Indulgence/dp/152474672X</p><p><br></p><p>Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):</p><p>https://uppbeat.io/t/cruen/city-streets</p><p>License code: 2JJVCBQKEE2GJH5N</p><p><br></p><p><br></p>

26. Practicing Without Distance: Building Child & Adolescent Psychiatry in Rural America | Dr. Martha Karlstad
<p>In this episode, we sit down with Dr. Karlstad, a board-certified child and adolescent psychiatrist who has spent over a decade building mental health infrastructure in rural southwest Wisconsin. As the first mental health professional ever hired within her independent health system—a federally designated rural health clinic serving a five-county region from a town of just 5,000—Dr. Karlstad has built a behavioral health department from the ground up. What began as a single role has grown into an integrated team of a general psychiatrist, a psychiatric nurse practitioner, four psychotherapists, and dedicated nursing staff, all embedded within primary care.</p><p>Beyond her clinical work, Dr. Karlstad serves as a consultant with the Wisconsin Child Psychiatry Consultation Program (CPCP), a statewide psychiatric access initiative that connects primary care providers with real-time child psychiatry support. Through this role, she extends her reach to thousands of pediatric patients she may never meet, equipping frontline clinicians who carry the bulk of youth mental health care. She is also the president-elect of the Wisconsin Council of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (WISCCAP), where she is helping lead efforts in legislative advocacy—focusing on Medicaid access, reimbursement, and sustaining care for children with severe and persistent mental illness.</p><p>This conversation traces Dr. Karlstad’s path into psychiatry—from early aspirations in international primary care to a pivotal third-year rotation—and explores how her commitment to high-need, low-resource populations led her to one of the most underserved regions in rural America. She speaks candidly about the realities of practicing in settings where specialized care may require hours of travel, and where even basic treatments—such as medication-assisted therapy—can demand extraordinary burdens from families.</p><p>Her clinical philosophy is grounded in evidence-based practice and collaborative decision-making with families, with an emphasis on transparency—especially when options are limited. </p><p>Most powerfully, Dr. Karlstad reflects on the personal cost of rural practice: the loss of anonymity, the complexity of boundaries in tightly knit communities, and the weight of losing a young patient to suicide in a place where professional and personal lives are inseparable. She reframes burnout not as a single breaking point, but as “death by a thousand cuts,” and shares how diversifying her roles, pursuing her own therapy, and committing to personal growth allowed her to move from questioning the sustainability of this work to believing she can do it for a lifetime.</p><p>This episode is essential listening for trainees and early-career psychiatrists considering rural or underserved practice—and for anyone wrestling with the intersection of professional identity, community, and systemic responsibility. Dr. Karlstad offers a rare and unfiltered look at what it truly means to build a career—and a life—where the need is greatest.</p><p><br /></p><p>Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/cruen/city-streetsLicense code: 2JJVCBQKEE2GJH5N</p>
