The Organizational Burnout Audit: What Your Workplace Gets Wrong (And How to Fix It)

In this episode, Dr. Jo explores the organizational factors that drive burnout in healthcare and helping professions. While we've been told to focus on individual resilience and self-care, research shows that workplace systems and structures are the primary contributors to burnout. Dr. Jo shares real stories from healthcare workers struggling with systemic issues and provides a practical "System Check" framework to audit your own workplace. She emphasizes that while organizational change is crucial, you still have agency and power to make meaningful improvements in your own experience. This episode will help you understand why your individual efforts might not be enough and what you can do about it.
