49. Burnout Is Not About Batteries Run Down

Physicians, it's time to address the common misperceptions about burnout and the false ideas that it’s simply a matter of batteries being run down. 

In this episode, we'll talk about the common myths and provide a model of the way energy works in a doctor that is accurate. Instead of thinking of your energy as a battery, think of it as an energetic bank account so that you can feel empowered to tackle your work challenges head-on.

In this series of mini trainings, Dr. Drummond will outline exactly how to approach burnout differently than trying to solve it and provide detailed solutions for maintaining a positive energy balance, so be sure to tune in to the next two episodes.

“You can't give what you ain't got. You can't give energy you don't have.”  - Dike Drummond MD
