4: Normalizing Burnout with Dr. Debbie Bradley

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 patient who was healthy and active who had a very aggressive disease. The prognosis was terrible and it caused Debbie to look at her life and ask the question, if two weeks from now I was given this diagnosis, would I have regrets about how I’d lived my life?  The answer was a resounding yes, and she knew she had to change it.  Debbie has left clinical medicine because she no longer felt called to heal in that way. Now she’s a Certified Executive Coach helping physicians figure out what it is they want to do with their lives and how they want to do it.  Her story is definitely one you’ll want to hear if you’re feeling like your calling is no longer in medicine! “I think that burnout can really sneak up on you.” Dr. Debbie Bradley In this episode: [01:39] Welcome to the show, Dr. Debbie Bradley!
