The physician who has been on two front lines.
Dr. Remina Panjwani served with Air Force security forces in Baghdad and worked as a hospitalist at the height of COVID. Now she says what most doctors won’t: burnout isn’t a weakness, it’s a system problem. Available for podcasts, livestreams, panels, broadcast and conference stages.
What she speaks on.
The Deployment Method: Recon, Deploy, Return
Her signature framework, built from military discipline and front-line medicine, for how people and teams recover from pressure and perform.
Running Humans on a Machine Schedule: The Physiology of Burnout
What sustained pressure does to sleep, focus, mood, immunity and hormones, and why grit alone can’t fix it.
Performance Under Pressure: What a War Zone and a Pandemic Taught One Physician About Resilience
Her story, from a bunker in Baghdad to a hospital during COVID, and what it means for anyone asked to do hard things for a long time.
Women, Hormones and High Performance
What high-performing women need to know about stress, perimenopause and hormones, and what gets missed in a standard appointment.
What she’ll say that other guests won’t.
Why telling people to manage their stress misses the point.
“Burnout isn’t a weakness. It’s a system problem.”
How coverage rules, not doctors, decide how long you get and what gets tested.
“Where is modern medicine fundamentally wrong? Letting insurance drive everything.”
Why unaddressed trauma shows up in the body, and why most doctors miss it.
“Most physicians aren’t trained in trauma. They don’t recognize it, and most won’t admit it.”
What organizations get wrong about resilience, and what to do instead.
“We’re not machines. Recovery is where the body recalibrates.”
What a war zone and a pandemic taught her about pressure, fear and the human body.
“In the military, you had a weapon and you knew what you were fighting. In COVID, you didn’t know what you were up against.”
Why so many high-performing women are told their labs are normal when they don’t feel normal.
“Your body gives you hints long before it shows up as a diagnosis.”
Where she’s been heard.
Episode coming soon.
