In this episode of Coffee Walk MD, Dr. Kendall and Dr. Bankhead sit down for an honest, funny, and deeply real conversation about marriage, burnout, current events, and who they’re becoming in this season of life.

They start by explaining what a coffee walk really is — a simple but intentional way to create space for meaningful communication in the middle of busy lives, careers, and parenting.

From coffee mugs and espresso questions to serious discussions about night shift work being classified as a carcinogen, this episode blends humor with depth. Brittany opens up about the toll night shifts take on the body, while Brian shares a vivid dream that turns into a surprisingly insightful reflection.

In current events, they discuss a tragic and unsettling story involving a dentist and the larger, often overlooked issue of violence against healthcare workers — followed by a lighter shift into Winter Olympics excitement and why watching sports (and judging from the couch) is oddly calming.

The conversation turns candid during the segment “The Thing No One Warned You About”, where they talk openly about marriage — including losing boundaries, emotional restraint, and how loving someone doesn’t mean you never want to scream into a pillow.

They close by reflecting on who they thought they’d be versus who they’re becoming, touching on careers, creativity, motherhood, teaching, and redefining success in midlife.

As always, this Coffee Walk is about real conversations, connection, and letting things be honest — even when they’re awkward.
