You know you want to leave. What you don't know is what actually needs to be in place before you do. In this episode Dr. Kristine walks through the exact checklist she used — the income, the benefits, the timeline, and the conversation she was most terrified to have — so you can make your exit a calculated move, not a leap of faith.

Key Topics:

• Recognizing when your body is telling you it's time to leave
• Using a hard deadline as a commitment device
• Building remote income before you give notice
• Creating an emergency fund as part of your exit runway
• How to time your exit to avoid a benefits gap
• Replacing malpractice, retirement, and health insurance
• How to tell your boss you're leaving — and what to say
• Navigating the emotional complexity of leaving a mentor
• The difference between leaving a person and leaving a system
• The Hospital Exit Checklist — the six steps in order
