From Burnout to Balance: Reclaiming Joy in Medicine with Dr. Mary Leung

In this inspiring episode of Beyond The Pills, we sit down with Dr. Mary Leung—a triple board-certified physician in internal medicine, medical oncology, and hematology—who is on a mission to help fellow physicians rediscover joy, purpose, and peace through the power of mindset and gratitude.

After years of late-night charting and weekend burnout, Dr. Mary transformed her life through life coaching. Now, she’s leaving work 2.5 hours earlier and has founded Shining With Gratitude MD to guide other overwhelmed physicians to do the same. Through her journey, she’s learned that practicing medicine doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your well-being—and that with the right mindset, physicians can thrive again.

Whether you're in healthcare or simply navigating your own burnout, this conversation offers powerful tools for clarity, control, and renewed passion for your calling.

🩺 Key topics we explore:

• How Dr. Mary reclaimed time and energy through coaching
• The role of gratitude and mindset in healing burnout
• Simple practices that help physicians (and anyone) feel more fulfilled
