In 2020 in the midst of working inpatient Urology during the COVID-19 pandemic, I hit absolute rock bottom personally and professionally. I wasn’t the mom, wife, PA or human being I wanted to be. I was embarrassed at the way that I was showing up in the world. I was a shell of the former Tracy. I want to encourage other PAs to tune out the voices telling you that burnout is normal and you have to sacrifice your own mental and physical health at the altar of a healthcare system that won’t love you back.  VIBRANT BODY CO. https://bit.ly/3kULz3Q  MEG LEDDY’s SHOW https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/burnout-what-i-have-learned-so-far-with-meg-leddy/id1582720035  FREE COACHING CALL https://calendly.com/the-pa-is-in/free 1-HOUR COACHING CALL https://calendly.com/the-pa-is-in/coaching SHOW NOTES https://www.tracybingaman.com/blog TRACY ON INSTAGRAM https://www.instagram.com/mrstracybingaman/ ON LINKEDIN https://www.linkedin.com/in/tracybingaman/
