What if you didn’t have to hit rock bottom before realizing it’s time to walk away from medicine?

So many doctors stay in medicine long past the point of alignment—trying to “fix” themselves, change jobs, adjust schedules, or force a better mindset. But what if all those tweaks are just delaying the inevitable? In this episode, we explore how to recognize when your medical career has truly run its course… before burnout drains you completely.

You’ll learn:

Listen now to receive the permission you’ve been waiting for—to choose yourself before burnout forces your hand.
