#325 Knowing Your Doctor Boosts Your Health

Nobody cares how much you know until they know how much you care.   -Theodore Roosevelt   In this episode of Life By Design, we are going back a bit in the history of the podcast with something we used to call a Baby Bullet episode.   If you remember the magic bullet kitchen utensil, you would recall that it was advertised as something where you could put many ingredients in it, and it would chop them all up with no problem.   The idea for today's show is to take a random topic generator, hit 'generate topic' and talk about whatever comes up.   Why are we doing this, and what's the benefit for you?   There was an article published in the Washington post recently on a book title "Compassionomics: The Revolutionary Scientific Evidence That Caring Makes A Difference". The theme of the book is that patients who have doctors they perceive as compassionate tend to recover faster and attain better health.    Full disclosure, we have not read the book but found the article interesting since it affirms a personal belief of ours that having a better relationship with your health care provider leads to better outcomes in general for the patients.   The podcast is an effort for you to get to know us better. It's a way to get more familiar we who we are as people and how we apply to Life By Design principles to many different areas.   What we covered
  • Topics ranging from diet and exercise, legacy, favourite movies, books we're reading and plenty more randomly generated questions. 
  • We answered the questions honestly, even if the generator gave us an uncomfortable issue.
