We talk with Tyler Jorgensen and Katie Masters about River Therapy, a new film that follows emergency clinicians stepping outside the hospital to face burnout, grief, and the grind of a broken system. We trade real-world ways to reset an overworked nervous system and build resilience through community and time in nature. 
• The origin of River Therapy and why the ER community needs it 
• Burnout in emergency medicine as isolation grief and chronic stress 
• Filming on the Pecos River in far west Texas as a deliberate reset 
• Prescribing nature as “microdoses” and “macrodoses” that fit real lives 
• The sensory contrast between ER noise and quiet that helps the body recover 
• Why “work hard, party hard” is not a sustainable recovery plan 
• Screening plans and a post-film Q&A to keep the conversation going 

I hope that everybody comes and we can have some nice discussions about um how to build our teams up and build resiliency and getting outside together.
