Jennie Shulkin is a lawyer, co-founder and CEO of Override Health, a multi-specialty chronic pain program. She was a division one athlete in college that suffered two traumatic brain injuries. Soon after she developed a complex chronic pain syndrome affecting multiple parts of her body. As best she could, Jennie continued living her life – pushing through Harvard Law School and building a career in law. All the while, she carried the burden of the agonizing, time-consuming, expensive, and both physically and emotionally painful journey of seeking pain relief. When each medication, intervention, and various other treatments failed, the treating providers shrugged, sent her away, and often told her she was "out of options." Adding to the frustration, many of the doctors, physical therapists, and psychologists Jennie consulted treated her chronic pain no differently from acute pain and were therefore ineffective. Additionally, most had little interest in or time to communicate with other providers working with Jennie. The result was fragmented care, inconsistent messaging, and contradicting plans of action. Jennie wanted a better way. Joining forces with her father, she began creating a solution that she and others in pain needed but did not exist elsewhere: a comprehensive, team-based approach to care that is implemented by providers who really understand chronic pain. Jennie lives with pain every day. But she has learned to stop cure-seeking – to stop putting life on hold until a pill, procedure, or doctor brings about the magic fix – and has found more effective ways to interact with the pain and build a fulfilling life. That is why Jennie and her father founded Override Health. Listen and learn more about the program.

EIM faculty A.J. Steele a licensed psychologist discusses behavioral health and how both the physiological and social factors are impacting functioning clinicians. How does our behavior represent what we are thinking or feeling? How might the behavior be impacted by those things? Behavioral health is a piece of overall health and if looked at that way A.J. says it is easier to keep altogether instead of separated and look at as whole health. Listen to find out more about behavior health in the clinic. A.J.’s Clinical Pearl: Be patient with yourself in learning new things. Once we get a degree and our license, we put the pressure on ourselves of having to know everything. If we do not think we know everything we expect ourselves to learn it in an unrealistic timeline or way and the reality, is it does not work that way. Be forgiving toward your own learning process and recognize that you are already leaps and bounds ahead of others if you are thinking about some of these things. Give yourself that credit.
