Epi 36: Did That 1-Star Google Review Ruin Your Week? Here’s How to Quit Overexplaining Yourself So You’re Not Mentally Drained All the Time

from Stop the Burnout Podcast · host Dr. Amber Parks, DVM, DABVP

OMG...this is a JUICY episode! We’re getting into one of the most exhausting habits fueling burnout in veterinary medicine: the urge to over-explain, defend, or justify every decision or recommendation you make. From one-star Google reviews to clients questioning your recommendations to chart notes that read like novels, we break down why you feel so responsible for being “understood”. And even better...how to shift out of that survival mode. This episode gives you the WHY behind our behavior (it's not always our fault!) and, along with it, practical tools and real-world examples to help you reclaim your confidence, protect your energy, and stop letting other people’s mood, energy, and opinions control your entire day.
