Welcome to the May's Anatomy Podcast! This podcast was created by host May Yazdi, Family Nurse Practitioner. It was created in an effort to provide a space for nurses and other healthcare professionals alike to share experiences and advice for those entering or currently in the healthcare industry. In the following episodes you will experience discussions with other members of the interdisciplinary team as well as solo episodes with the host. Her hope is that you find a home and support system with us and gain insight into the world of nursing and medicine.
Over the past two years, I’ve witnessed the transformative power of these medications in my practice, and I’m excited to share this knowledge with you. Explore the evolution, benefits, and potential risks of GLP medications, and understand why a holistic approach, integrating lifestyle changes and medication, is crucial for achieving lasting results. As a certified health coach and seasoned nurse practitioner, I bring a unique perspective on complementing pharmaceutical interventions with non-pharmaceutical strategies to optimize your health.
We also explore the practical aspects of using GLP medications, such as dosing strategies, managing side effects, and the advantages of self-administered injections. Learn about the importance of patient education in minimizing side effects through hydration and dietary adjustments, and discover how these treatments can improve not just weight but overall health, from reducing blood pressure to lowering the risk of heart disease. Additionally, we cover alternative supplements like berberine and hormone balancing to provide a well-rounded perspective on weight management. This episode is a treasure trove of advice and knowledge for anyone eager to improve their health through modern medicine and holistic practices.

Navigating the maze of fertility challenges and early pregnancy can be an emotional whirlwind. I recall the moment I first saw a clear positive result on a pregnancy test after a long journey filled with PCOS and previous miscarriages—it was a mix of joy and fear unlike any other. This episode of the May's Anatomy Podcast dives deep into these raw, personal experiences while celebrating the strong, supportive community we've cultivated along the way. From humorous anecdotes about pregnancy brain to the comforting solace found in a positive ultrasound, we cover it all.
During the episode, I share practical coping strategies to manage the overwhelming anxiety and exhaustion of the first trimester. I talk about essential first-trimester tips like ginger candies and magnesium supplements made a world of difference, and I debunk some of the common myths about pregnancy cravings predicting the baby’s gender. Plus, you'll hear the heartwarming story of discovering we're having a boy through the NIPT test!
We wrap up with a reflection on the importance of self-care and not stressing over perfection. After all, pregnancy is a unique journey for every woman.

In this episode, I dive deep into my battle with PCOS, starting from my early twenties while in nursing school. I recount the frustrating journey of identifying symptoms like weight gain, oily skin, hair loss, and irregular periods, and the emotional toll of navigating the medical system with multiple unhelpful endocrinologists.
At age 30, I took proactive steps by visiting Kindbody, a concierge fertility center, to assess my fertility, anticipating potential challenges with conceiving due to my PCOS diagnosis. My journey didn’t end there; I delve into managing severe periods, exploring various forms of birth control, the challenges faced after stopping it, and the significant lifestyle changes I made to improve my metabolic health and fertility.

A 25-year-old man presents to your office on a Monday morning with ankle pain. He was playing in his usual Saturday afternoon basketball game when he injured his right ankle. He says that he jumped for a rebound and landed on another player's foot. His right ankle "rolled over," he fell to the floor, and his ankle immediately started to hurt. He did not hear or feel a pop. He was able to stand and walk in spite of rest, icing, and elevation. He suffered no other injury from the fall.
On examination, he is a healthy appearing man with normal vital signs. The lateral aspect of his right ankle is swollen. The right ankle has normal dorsiflexion and plantar flexion and there is no focal tenderness to palpation of the fibula, malleoli, or foot. No ligamentous laxity is noted on testing. He can bear weiht with minimal pain. There is normal sensation and capillary refill in the foot. The remainder of his examination is normal.

A few weeks ago a friend of mine reached out to ask me what my opinions of being an NP were compared to an RN. It got me thinking that this is a question a lot of nurses ask themselves at some point in their journey, so I decided I would make an episode about it! In this episode I discuss what I believe to be the pros and cons of being an RN versus the pros and cons of being an NP. Please remember that these are just my opinions and are based on my experience alone. I hope this episode helps you find what you're looking for!

A 55-year-old Caucasian woman, new to your practice, presents for an "annual physical examination." She reports that she is very healthy, generally feels well and has no specific complaints. She has a history of having had a "total hysterectomy," by which she means that her uterus, cervix, ovaries, and fallopian tubes were removed. The surgery was performed because of fibroids. She has had a Pap smear every 3 years since the age of 21, all of which have been normal. She has had annual mammograms since the age of 50, all of which have been normal. She has no other significant medical or surgical history. She takes a multivitamin pill daily but no other medications. Her family history is significant for breast cancer that was diagnosed in her maternal grandmother at the age of 72. The patient is married, monogamous, and does not smoke cigarettes or drink alcohol. She tried to avoid dairy products because of "lactose intolerance." She walks 30 minutes a day five times a week for exercise. Her physical examination is normal.

A 55-year-old man comes into your office for follow-up of a chronic cough. He also complains of shortness of breath with activity. He reports that this has been getting worse over time. As you are interviewing the patient, you note that he smells of cigarette smoke. Upon further questioning, he reports smoking one pack of cigarettes per day for the past 35 years and denies ever being advised to quit. On examination, he is in no respiratory distress at rest, his vital signs are normal, and he has no obvious signs of cyanosis. His pulmonary examination is notable for reduced air movement and faint expiratory wheezing on auscultation.

A 6-month-old male infant is brought to your office by his mother for a routine well-child visit. His mother is concerned that he is not yet saying "mama," because her best friend's baby said "mama" by age 6 months. Your patient was born via an uncomplicated pregnancy to a 23-year-old G1P1 mother. He was delivered by a spontaneous vaginal delivery at full term and there were no complications in the neonatal period. You have been following him since his birth. He has had appropriate growth and development up to this age and is up-to-date on his routine immunizations. He had one upper respiratory infection at age 5 months that was treated symptomatically. There is no family history of any developmental, hearing, or speech disorders. He has been fed since birth with an iron-fortified infant formula. Cereals and other baby foods were added starting at age 4 months. He lives with both parents, neither of whom smokes cigarettes.
On examination, he is a vigorous infant who is at the 50th percentile for length and weight and 75th percentile for head circumference. His physical examination is normal. On developmental examination, he is seen to sit for a short period of time without support, reach out with one hand for your examining light, pick up a Cheerio with a raking grasp and put it in his mouth, and he is noted to babble frequently.

Today's episode is a little different from our regular episodes here on the show, because today I am focusing on self-care. Working in a service-based industry, it makes sense that most of us focus so much of our time on others. However, we often forget to take time to better ourselves and listen to what our needs are. In this episode I discuss my top priorities right now (especially while studying for boards) as well as some tips you guys may wish to use as well!

In today's episode we will be covering case study #3. A 52-year-old man presents to your office for an acute visit because of coughing and shortness of breath. He is well known to you because of multiple office visits in the past few years for similar reasons. He has a chronic "smokers cough," but reports that in the past 2 days his cough has increased, his sputum has changed from white to green color, and he has had to increase the frequency with which he uses his albuterol inhaler. He denies having a fever, chest pain, peripheral edema, or other symptoms. His medical history is significant for hypertension, peripheral vascular disease, and two hospitalizations for pneumonia in the past 5 years. He has a 60-pack-year history of smoking and continues to smoke two packs of cigarettes a day.
On examination, he is in moderate respiratory distress. His temperature is 98.4 degrees Fahrenheit, his blood pressure is 152/95 mm Hg, his pulse is 98 beats/min, his respiratory rate is 24 breaths/min, and he has an oxygen saturation of 94% on room air. His lung examination is significant for diffuse expiratory wheezing and a prolonged expiratory phase of respiration. There are no signs of cyanosis. The remainder of his examination is normal. A chest s-ray done in your office shows an increased anteroposterior (AP) diameter and a flattened diaphragm, but otherwise he has clear lung fields.

Last week I finally finished up the last leg of my clinical rotations as a FNP student and I could not be more excited! Today I am joined by my husband and podcast producer, Chase, as he interviews me on all things clinical rotations. We discussed what I wish I knew before starting clinicals, how my perspectives have changed, advice I would give to prospective NP students, and so much more. We are now in the home stretch and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. I could not be more joyous of what lies ahead for me in my nursing journey and I feel so grateful to share all of my experiences with you all!

Join me today as I celebrate the passage of AB890—the bill that will give nurse practitioners in the state of California full practice authority! Today, I give you guys a thorough breakdown of the bill, its history, timeline, as well as specific areas of note for the transition to practice period. I also discuss an argument in support and an argument in opposition of the bill and relay my personal beliefs on both. The passage of AB890 will greatly aid in closing the provider gap, not only here in California, but measures like this will have ripple effects across the nation. This year nurses and nurse practitioners are making NPs history...let’s see where this next year will take us!

In today's episode I discuss a patient encounter that helped me view medicine in a new light. As healthcare professionals and medical providers we have to do a better job at educating our patients and motivating them to make changes in their lives. Our healthcare system isn't the best--we know this. But that doesn't mean we can use that as an excuse to give subpar care to our patients. Lifestyle modifications DO and CAN make a difference, if you take the time to educate yourself and your patients on what the best practices are. Tune in today as I share a story of a diabetic patient who went from feeling extremely motivated and ready to take hold of her life to feeling discouraged, embarassed, given up on. I hope today's episode will help you in your practice as a healthcare professional or medical provider by giving you the tools you need to empower your patients or clients to make healthier decisions that may change their lives forever.

September is National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, and if you've been a listener of the show you probably know that this topic is very near and dear to my heart.

Today's episode is a re-release of the episode I recorded after his passing addressing suicide risks, warning signs, and protective factors for victims and family members. Let's all do our part to de-stigmatize suicide and mental health and continue to encourage the conversation with our loves ones, peers, and coworkers. Together we can make a difference. Together we can save a life.

We’re back and it’s story time! In today’s episode I will be sharing why I didn’t choose to go to medical school as a conversation during my clinical rotations was sparked between a patient’s family member and me. Tune in to hear my decision-making process when it came to deciding on nursing (as opposed to the MD or DO route) as a career path and why I am so passionate about educating others on the nursing profession and empowering my peers to do the same.

I tried something new in today’s episode that I’m super excited about! I’m going to be introducing case study episodes into the platform to get us all thinking critically and coming up with a management plan for each patient. In these episodes I will be introducing a patient with a chief complaint, history of present illness, past medical history, review of systems, and physical exam. I will then go through a list of possible differential diagnoses and one or two primary diagnoses. I will then leave it up to YOU ALL to determine the course of action. Come up with one primary diagnosis and two most likely differential diagnoses, as well as a treatment and management plan and share your ideas with us on social (@maysanatomypodcast). In the following case study episode, I will reveal my answers and present the next case. So, be sure to tune in today to review our first case and connect with us on social once you’ve come up with your diagnosis and treatment. Happy diagnosing!

In today’s episode I update you guys on my last semester and clinical of nurse practitioner school…EVER!! I then go through a list of 7 things I wish my patients knew about nurses (and nurse practitioners). This is a list of nuances I have experienced and picked up on over the years through the relationships I have with my patients. In realizing these 7 things, we realize that this is the perfect opportunity to teach our patients (and sometimes other healthcare professionals as well) and educate them on the role and scope of the nurse. Tune in now and enjoy!

In today's episode of the show I and my co-host and produce, Chase Chewning, discuss one of the pillars of the Institute for Integrative Nutrition's model of healthful living, primary foods. Primary foods, such as physical activity, career, spirituality, and relationships are "foods" that feed our soul and satisfy our hunger for life. There are twelve primary foods that are constantly fluctuating and adjusting as we adjust through the various phases of our lives. These foods include: joy, spirituality, creativity, finances, career, education, health, physical activity, home cooking, home environment, relationships, and social life. As we navigate through our health journey and coach our clients and patients through their own individualized processes, we may notice these concepts ebb and flow, which is not only normal, but healthy! In this episode we hone in on some of the more difficult to grasp concepts: joy, creativity, and home environment and provide examples and methods of ways to activate these practices into our everyday lives. As we continue on this podcast (and our own journeys) we will dig in deeper to this concept of primary food and unveil its importance on our quality of life.

In today’s episode I highlight the top ten things I wish I knew before going into nursing. I start off with some pointers and need-to-knows about the registered nurse nursing program and how to navigate such a rigorous program at a young age. Then I move on to the various aspects of working as a registered nurse that were new to me, whether in the hospital setting or in outpatient. We wrap up the episode by discussing some new discoveries I have found through my NP journey! Always remember there are pros and cons to every profession, and nursing is no exception, but the reward is far more worth it!

Today’s episode is a very raw and real conversation around suicide. Healthcare professionals and practitioners should take extra care to educate themselves on the topic of suicide and understand the warning signs that may present in patients. Family members, loved ones, and caregivers should be knowledgeable on resources available for those who struggle with suicidal ideation as well as resources for family members. In this episode we discuss national statistics, risk factors, warning signs, and protective factors at the individual level. I personally want to dedicate this episode to my uncle Farshid and all those who have lost their lives to suicide, those experiencing suicidal ideation, as well as their loved ones. All information in the episode is provided by the Mental Health Services Oversight & Accountability Commission.

This week I thought I would try something a little different from my typical episodes and fill you guys in on my life! In healthcare, we all too often put ourselves in a box--"I am a nurse practitioner." "I wear a white coat." But the truth is, we're all human. It is my goal to share all aspects of healthcare with you guys: the professional and the personal. So, today I catch you guys up on what I have been doing in school, my recently appointed role as Secretary for the Association for Student Nurse Practitioners, starting the health coach program at the Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and so much more!

Wow--this episode was so fun to record! Earlier in the week I asked you all to submit some of the misconceptions you have about nurses and nurse practitioners and you really didn’t disappoint! Listen along as I debunk some of your myths and misconceptions about nursing, nurse practitioners, as well as discussing the similarities and differences between NP’s and PA’s. I also discuss the importance of advocating for the nursing profession and education our family, friends, and healthcare team members on what the true role of the nurse and nurse practitioner is. This is a fun one you won’t want to miss!

Today’s episode is dedicated to George Floyd, Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and all other black lives lost to police brutality and social injustice over centuries. In this episode Chase and I unpack our thoughts and sentiments in regard to the current civil unrest not only in our nation, but across the globe. We discuss the importance of the Black Lives Matter movement and its deep roots in our American history. We cover the different between explicit and implicit bias--how it develops from early childhood, what it means for us as individuals in society, and how we can overcome these biases not only in our society, but also in our healthcare systems and as healthcare individuals. Racial injustice IS a public health and healthcare issue and organizations such as the AANP and ANA have spoken up on the matter addressing how we, as nurses, have a moral obligation to advocate for racial justice. This is an episode full of honesty, vulnerability, education, truth, and hope.
How to identify your bias: Project Implicit: Harvard Implicit Association Test (IAT) Here is a tool that allows each of us to discover hidden cognitive biases. Most people are aware of their own overt biases, but it is very difficult for us to become aware of our covert biases. This is a test that can be taken by each individual for their own benefit.

It’s that time of the year again when students are graduating, studying for board exams, and applying for jobs, so it’s important to start thinking about your work environment and what that means for you. In today’s episode of the podcast I get into all the nitty gritty aspects of job satisfaction and work relationships. I start off by explaining the top 5 key factors of overall job satisfaction. Then, I go into the importance of work relationships answering questions like: why have good work relationships? How do you define good work relationships? Who should be focusing your energy on when it comes to developing good work relationships? And finally, how do you actually build those bonds with your peers, colleagues, and coworkers? It’s important to note that anyone can benefit from this episode, whether you’re in healthcare or not. So, tune in today and maybe even come back to this episode as a reminder throughout your practice. Don’t underestimate the power of relationships!

May is Mental Health Awareness month and I am so grateful to have had the honor to sit down today with a dear friend of mine, Matt Yates. Matt and I vulnerably discuss his struggles with coming out in conservative West Virginia, battles with mental health, and most importantly how he has learned to confront his grievances and pay it forward. Matt turned his life in corporate America to a journey of service. He now focuses on life coaching/business mindset, crystal healing, and continuing his journey as a life learner and grower. This is an episode full of truth, honesty, hope, and empowerment that you won’t want to miss!

In today’s episode I discuss how to effectively prepare for your first nursing interview as a newly graduated registered nurse! I discuss appropriate dress, body language, and what to bring with you. Then we dig into the interview itself—what questions the interviewer may ask of you and how to prepare for those questions, what questions you should be asking at every interview, and finally how to negotiate your salary. If you are a new graduate RN (or soon-to-be) this is the episode for you!

Today’s episode is one I hope listeners from all walks of life and various experiences can relate to-- “Imposter Syndrome.” We’ve all heard it before, impostor syndrome is a psychological pattern in which one doubts one's accomplishments and has a persistent internalized fear of being exposed as a "fraud". In a world where we’re surrounded by highlight reels, we are lacking true, raw, and authentic content, making it difficult to empathize with one another, thereby feeling like you are alone in your self-doubt and worth. Listen along as we discuss how imposter syndrome plays a role for new graduate NP’s, or otherwise, and ways in which to combat these negative thoughts and empower yourself to be confident and steadfast in the value you bring to the table.

Listen along as I discuss how I weaved in and out of the nursing profession and ultimately found my way back through a whole lot of hard work and perseverance, a lesson that changed my life forever.
