    Ep. 81: Part 2: Sleep Is A Skill With Mollie Eastman
    Feb 23 2026

    In Part 2 of this Fit Physician Podcast series, Suzanne and Jake continue their conversation with sleep coach and Sleep Is A Skill host Mollie Eastman, shifting from “why sleep matters” to what actually moves the needle—without making sleep feel overwhelming, expensive, or perfectionistic. Mollie breaks down the different “buckets” of sleep issues (optimization vs. insomnia/sleep anxiety), shares the most practical starting points for real people (sleep diary, wearables, CGMs, and why sleep testing can be a game-changer—especially for women over 40), and explains how to use wearable data in an empowering way (instead of letting a bad score derail your day). You’ll also learn the true low-hanging fruit for better sleep—circadian rhythm basics, consistency, bright days/dark nights, meal timing, temperature and thought timing—plus a refreshingly balanced take on screens and blue light (including why “perfect sleep hygiene” can backfire). If you want a clear, realistic playbook to improve sleep in a busy life, this episode delivers.

    Ep. 80: Part 1: Sleep Is A Skill With Mollie Eastman
    Feb 16 2026

    In Part 1 of this two-part Fit Physician Podcast series, Suzanne & Jake sit down with sleep coach and Sleep Is A Skill host Mollie Eastman to explore why sleep is often the missing pillar in health and performance — especially for busy, high-achieving women physicians. Mollie shares her personal journey through insomnia, the cultural normalization of burnout in medicine, and how sleep acts as a powerful barometer for stress, energy, and overall wellbeing. The conversation highlights common sleep mistakes, the challenges of shift work and midlife changes, and the growing idea that sleep isn’t just something you have — it’s a skill you can build.

    Ep. 79: Real Physicians, Real Results: How Lynne Went From Stuck to 50 Pounds Down & Stronger Than Ever
    Feb 9 2026

    In this episode of The Fit Physician Podcast, Jake sits down with Dr. Lynn C to share her transformation journey through strength training, empowered eating, and community support. From feeling completely stuck, low on energy, and frustrated by programs that didn’t fit her life as a busy physician and mom, Lynn walks listeners through how consistent three-day-per-week workouts, flexible coaching, and gradual mindset shifts helped her build remarkable strength, lose 50 pounds, and regain confidence both inside and outside the gym. She opens up about balancing family life, overcoming negative self-talk, redefining her relationship with food, and the powerful ripple effects her fitness has had on her children, career, and long-term health. This conversation highlights the value of meeting yourself where you are, investing in support that understands the physician lifestyle, and building habits that last for life rather than chasing quick fixes.
