Welcome to the Direct Well-Being Podcast, hosted by Dr. Anders Apgar, MD, FACOG, M.S. — an Ob/Gyn physician leader and nationally recognized voice in clinician well-being. This show is a trusted, peer-driven space for honest conversations about what actually supports physicians — beyond resilience training and surface-level wellness.Each week, Dr. Apgar sits down with physician leaders, partner organizations, and frontline clinicians to talk about the real drivers of distress: financial stress, mental and emotional health, family dynamics, and the systems in which physicians practice. Conversations are evidence-aligned, research-informed, and grounded in lived clinical experience — never promotional, always physician-first.Produced as a Direct Self Care production in partnership with the Doctor Podcast Network, the show integrates insight from the Well-Being Index, Champions of Wellness, Tend Health, and the broader Direct brand ecosystem to move listeners from awareness to agency.W
