Ep.26: The Prize, Persistence, and a Little Patience

Ep.28: The Prize, Persistence, and a Little Patience  This episode features a college admissions expert who shares a fresh, empowering perspective on navigating the admissions process. Emphasizing self-worth and student advocacy, she encourages students to see themselves as “the prize” and focus on finding the right-fit college rather than chasing prestige.  Drawing from her experience as a first-generation graduate, the conversation also explores the importance of independence, holistic decision-making (beyond academics), and supportive, not controlling, parental roles. It further highlights themes of resilience, life transitions, and the value of finding environments where students truly feel they belong and can thrive.

Alongside personal stories, the episode also dives into skincare insights, including Dr. Turner’s favorite anti-aging product TNS, current in-office promotions, and treatments like Emtone for cellulite. The conversation blends real-life experiences with expert dermatology advice, offering listeners inspiration, practical skincare tips, and an honest look at balancing self-care, relationships, and personal growth.

Ep 24 : Mount Kilimanjaro, Maverx and Medicine w Dr. Angela Siler Fisher

In this episode of the Skin, Self, and Everything Else podcast, the conversation features Dr. Angela Syler Fisher—emergency physician, leadership consultant, world traveler, and longtime friend of Dr. Turner. Dr. Fisher shares how a personal crisis prompted a meaningful reset in her career. Once leading one of the busiest emergency departments in Houston, she chose a more balanced, values-driven path, now serving as a quality director for freestanding emergency departments while focusing on mentorship and preventative care. She speaks candidly about burnout in emergency medicine and the importance of aligning career with family and personal priorities. Through her consulting firm, Maverx, she emphasizes that leadership is intentional and that mentorship requires preparation, authenticity, and credibility. Beyond medicine, travel has deeply shaped her worldview—having visited 57 countries and recently summited Mount Kilimanjaro with her children. The episode highlights resilience, self-awareness, and the belief that to heal others, physicians must first care for themselves.

Ep. 23 : Ninja Warrior, Demarcus Ware and Winter Storms

🎙️ Episode 23 of Skin, Self, and Everything Else is live! On Skin, Self, and Everything Else, I sat down with Elliot Jolette - medical sales leader, American Ninja Warrior athlete, mentor, and someone who truly lives what he teaches. We talked about something we don’t say enough: Somewhere between COVID, AI, and “being busy”… we’ve started losing real human connection. And in industries built on trust and care — that’s a problem. Elliot shared how his purpose has stayed the same for 13+ years: Help people live their lives to the fullest. But what really stayed with me? He doesn’t chase what’s easy. He leans into what challenges him — even when he fails. That mindset shift changes everything. This episode is about growth, discipline, faith, human skills, and choosing purpose over comfort. If you’ve been feeling disconnected, stuck, or just craving real conversations again — you’ll want to watch this one. #SkinSelfEverythingElse #Podcast #Growth #Leadership #HumanConnection

Ep. 22 : A New Year Measured in Meaning

Kicking off the new year with a special episode of Skin, Self, and Everything Else 🎙️✨ In Episode 22, Brandon and I kicked things off by making a chocolate cherry cocktail (and a sober-friendly mocktail), then slowed down to reflect on what a new year really represents: the chance to begin again. Brandon shared his vision board from last year—full of reminders about purpose, discipline, self-belief, and aligning action with goals. It was a powerful reminder that growth isn’t about perfection, it’s about showing up with clarity and courage. As we step into 2026, my hope is that you give yourself permission to reset, refocus, and keep moving toward what truly matters to you. Thank you for being part of this journey.
