Ruth Heidrich, PhD is a young 83 year-old athlete who was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer at the age of 47. Ruth had been a runner well over a decade, ate what she thought was a healthy diet when the devastating diagnosis came. Ruth shares how with Dr. John McDougall’s help, she refused chemotherapy, radiation, and medical intervention and instead turned to food as her medicine. She completely went to a whole food plant based diet over night. The results of the dietary change were so powerful that, not only did she eradicate the cancer, she decided to add biking and swimming to her running to become a triathlete. Exactly two years later, she crossed the finish line of the Kona Ironman Triathlon, becoming the first vegan to do the Ironman. Ruth went on to do the Ironman 5 more times and is the winner of more than 900 trophies, 8 Gold Medals in the U.S.Senior Olympics, and 67 marathons including Boston, New York, & Moscow. She has also been named One of the Ten Fittest Women in North America.

Dr. Katyal holds certifications in Positive Psychology and Positive Psychology coaching from Whole Being Institute. He has published and lectured extensively on well-being and the Science of Happiness to audiences ranging from college students to physicians. He is currently teaching a senior level college course in positive psychology while investigating the effectiveness of positive psychology interventions on physician wellness/burnout. In this conversation, Dr. Katyal shares with us how positive psychology increases physician well-being and in turn, improves the care they provide their patients. This powerful approach should be incorporated into every physician's tool box. As a practicing radiologist and physician executive for the past 18 years, Dr. Katyal understands the pressures that many physicians face as we move away from traditional fee for service and toward more value based payment models. As Senior Vice President of Clinical and Strategic Services at a rapidly growing startup radiology company for 10 years, Dr. Katyal has developed and implemented an innovative, highly efficient physician workflow that resulted in higher quality, improved focus, lower fatigue and very high job satisfaction.
