Episode 129: New Attending Wellness Part 2 – Keeping Your Early Habits Alive When the Schedule Gets Real

In Episode 129 of Doctor’s Wealth and Wellness builds on the earlier wellness advice for new attendings by focusing on how to keep those early habits alive once the schedule intensifies and the initial excitement fades. It offers three practical strategies: create stripped-down “minimum viable” versions of each habit so the chain never breaks on brutal days, schedule daily anchors and weekly recovery rituals on the calendar as non-negotiable clinical-style obligations, and install a simple five-minute weekly reset that reviews what worked, what got in the way, and one adjustment for the coming week. The episode emphasizes that the physicians who still have strong energy years later are the ones who designed flexible, structured systems that survive real attending life, allowing wellness to keep compounding and support the financial habits discussed previously. Examples in this episode are hypothetical and not representative of a specific individual.
