Why Burnout Isn't a Failure of Resilience

from Why Medics Matter · host DoctorsTraining

Why Medics Matter is DoctorsTraining's podcast for doctors who've been told to just "be more resilient." This week, Dr Claire Ashley author of The Burnout Doctor, now published in eight countries, makes the case that resilience has nothing to do with it, and that some of the most capable doctors are the ones who burn out hardest. She walks through the five stages that lead there, the moment her own denial finally cracked (a panic attack she never saw coming), and what actually helped her recover. If you've ever wondered whether you're "just stressed" or something more, this one's for you.Support the show: If you found value in this episode, please rate, review, and subscribe to Why Medics Matter on your favourite podcast platform!
