Redesigning Care for Women Through Lifestyle Medicine with Dr. Kimberley Sampson-Paine

In this episode of the Next Gen LM Podcast, we explore the transformative power of lifestyle medicine and what it truly means to move beyond treating disease toward creating lasting health. Through a deeply personal and professional lens, we examine how mindset, behavior change, and leadership intersect to shape the future of healthcare.

We are joined by Dr. Kimberley Sampson-Paine, a triple board-certified expert in OB-GYN, obesity medicine, and lifestyle medicine, who serves as the chair of Obstetrics and Gynecology at Southwestern Vermont Medical Center. Drawing from over a decade of clinical experience, Dr. Sampson-Paine shares how witnessing patterns of unaddressed symptoms in her patients—particularly women in midlife—inspired her to seek a more holistic framework through the American College of Lifestyle Medicine. She offers insights into the importance of integrating lifestyle interventions with traditional care, the critical role of sleep as a "pivot point" for metabolic and mental health, and the necessity of addressing systemic issues like weight bias and reimbursement models.

By the end of the episode, listeners will walk away with a deeper understanding of what it takes to create meaningful, lasting change in health—for themselves and for others. Whether you are a student, clinician, or emerging leader, this conversation offers practical perspectives on embracing lifestyle medicine, cultivating authentic leadership through a team-based approach, and empowering individuals to thrive across every stage of the lifespan.
