191: Why Fly Solo? Helping Your Fellow Physicians Succeed with Wendy Kranz

“How has your intuition spoken to you in the past? How do you know it’s your intuition; how do you know something feels right? How does your compass work? What interferes with your compass so you know when to make some adjustments?”

• Wendy Kranz, Master Certified Life Coach & Licensed Pilot

 

As physicians, we often opt to take on more work ourselves than to ask for help, which can lead to serious burnout and overall unhappiness. Today, DocWorking has a conversation with Master Certified Life Coach and Licensed Pilot Wendy Kranz, to discuss how you can take the steps to avoid burnout, regain control, and “pilot your own life.” Along with DocWorking Master Certified Coach and Cohost of the podcast Jill Farmer, Wendy Kranz offers listeners advice on how to prepare for unknown challenges that may occur in your life and work. For Wendy, that unknown challenge was being diagnosed with cancer. In the episode, Wendy talks about how she found her “maneuvering speed” to continue living the life she wanted after her diagnosis. By drawing similarities to how a pilot may take charge of their aircraft, Wendy talks to physicians about how to trust in your intuition to take charge of your life. In addition to your individual self, Wendy and Jill also discuss the importance of co-pilots, those in your life who are there to support you. Piloting your “aircraft” isn’t a standalone job, and DocWorking is here to help. 

 

Wendy Kranz has been a master certified life coach for more than a decade. She is also a licensed pilot, a lover of adventure and fun, and brilliant at helping overworked clients, like physicians, create a flight plan for their life that helps them move through the turbulence and land at a meaningful destination.
