Listen Later

Welcome to TheCompassionRX a podcast inspired by my personal experience with burnout and witness to the desperate need for more compassion and humanity in the healthcare system.  

Are you a PA who:  Has ever groaned about seeing a particular kind of patient?  Found yourself trying to exit a room as quickly as possible when a patient encounter is difficult?  Perhaps you have that one, or maybe more, patient encounters that you wish had gone differently? Or maybe you’re a new PA who needs to learn some soft skills?

My name is Kristen Jardine. A Lifestyle Medicine PA-C for many years, I learned the hard way how sneaky and unexpected burnout can be, along with the devastating impacts it can have on your life. In this episode, I share: 

  • How as providers we perpetuate difficult encounters
  • A simple 3 step strategy to shift your brain state
  • How mirror neurons are your secret strategy
  • Why training your vagus nerve is key 
  • The transformative power of focusing on truth 

    • May this episode bless you! 

     

    ❤️You. Are. Loved.❤️
