309: Season 3 Wrap Up
Burntout to Badass
After years and years of work, I can finally say that I’ve reached the pinnacle of my recovery from burnout. Would I say that I’m fully recovered from burnout? Not quite… Recovery is a continuous process, not a one-time event. We will never be fully recovered because recovery has no endpoint. This applies in a big way to people who are recovering from addiction, and for those of us recovering from burnout - it translates perfectly. The urge may come to slip back into old ways. To work, grind, push and handle the job, house, and kids while staying up late, getting up early, skipping...

8: Nurses Get Burntout Too with Jeanelle Classen, RN
Burntout to Badass
Many of my interviews speak from the perspective of doctors and the challenges we face in our professions. Another, very different, type of experience that happens right alongside us as doctors, is that of our nurses. I chat with Jeanelle Classen about her journey as a nurse and the emotional roller coaster it took her on. After facing burnout in her grad year of nursing and the overwhelming feelings of guilt and angst that the career brought her, she needed to make a change and find a way to rid herself of burnout and help others nurses like her. For those of you in the medical field,...

7: Write Your Own Story with Rebecca Fleetwood Hession
Burntout to Badass
Oftentimes, while we’re trudging through our lives with our heads down, crushing our goals at all costs, and maintaining the title of “Top Performer,” it takes a crippling illness or injury to realize that we can’t sustain the patterns we’ve created for ourselves. In this episode, I chat with Rebecca Fleetwood Hession who shares her story about overcoming burnout. After years of avoiding any type of illness, Rebecca was crippled for months with a very scary case of pneumonia. During her time of recovery, she had the opportunity to reconnect with herself and identify that she...

6: Investing with Ronnie Shalev, MD
Burntout to Badass
When we escape the clutches of burnout and take the time to look back on what actually caused it, we are often shocked to see that we were surviving in burnout mode for several years. In this episode, I talk with Dr. Ronnie Shalev who shares her story about how burnout started to creep in on her just two short years after her residency. And in true physician, nose-to-the-grindstone fashion, she continued her career with the white coat for a decade afterward. Dr. Ronnie shares how she got her start in real estate while performing as an emergency physician and how it provided her with the...

5: Mindful Living with Dr. Sogol Pahlavan
Burntout to Badass
Realizing that you’re smack dab in the throws of burnout doesn’t always happen when things start to look like they’re going awry. For many of us, our lives look absolutely pristine from the outside while we’re floundering on the inside looking for an escape from the life we’re living. Dr. Sogol joins me on this episode and we talk about her experience with burnout that happened right at the height of her career as she had achieved everything on the list of the “American Dream.” Sometimes, reconciling with burnout is taking a step back from everything we think we should be...

4: Normalizing Burnout with Dr. Debbie Bradley
Burntout to Badass
You are not broken and you are not the only one experiencing burnout. I know I say this all the time but joining me is Dr. Debbie Bradley and she 100% agrees. Listen as she shares her burnout story and why she’s so passionate about helping other female physicians who don’t have it all figured out. For Debbie, burnout itself snuck up on her. She was practicing and realizing that she didn’t have the same time to get out and do the things that she loves and that recharge her batteries, but she didn’t realize she was truly burned out. Instead it took one particular patient. A young...

3: Options with Dr. Karen Wolowick
Burntout to Badass
You are not stuck. You have options. No matter what it feels like right now, you are not easily replaceable. Once Dr. Karen Wolowick realized the truth of these words, her entire life changed. Listen as she shares her burnout story and why she’s so happy she conquered her fears so she could do life and gynecology practice her way. When Dr. Wolowick started in practice after medical school, everything seemed fine. But it wasn’t too much later that she realized that was not the case. She loved what she did, but she hated the way in which she was doing it. She was working in...

2: Slow Burn to Burnout with Dr. Seema Desai
Burntout to Badass
Dr. Seema Desai finished dental school in 2008 and has been practicing off and on ever since. The problem was that no matter where she worked, who she worked with, or who her patients were, she never felt fulfilled. Why couldn’t she be happy “having it all”? Instead of digging deeper into the cause of her dissatisfaction, she shifted gears and checked another box. She became a mom. She took a few years off with her first child, but ended up deep in the pit of undiagnosed postpartum depression. Looking back she wishes she’d had the courage to seek professional help, but at...
