Meet Amy:

Dr. Amy Grimm is a success and well-being coach, speaker, and veterinarian who helps high-performing professionals lead with clarity, energy, and purpose without sacrificing their well-being.

A former medical director who experienced burnout firsthand, Amy now coaches leaders across industries to recognize the hidden costs of hustle culture and create sustainable success through strategic prioritization and people-first leadership.

She also hosts the Burnout-Free Me Podcast (previously Daring DVM Podcast), a free resource for high-achievers and career professionals who want to live with less stress and create a life of balance, fulfillment, and joy.

Outside of work, Amy and her partner enjoy travel and all things outdoors. You’ll most likely find them on top of a mountain, in the middle of a desert, somewhere underwater, or 100 miles into a ride on their tandem mountain bicycle.

Let’s talk about how to stay grounded, sane, and effective while standing up for what you believe in.

In this episode of Burnout-Free Me (previously Daring DVM), I share why connection and curiosity are more powerful than judgment, how willful ignorance keeps people stuck in survival mode, and why your anger about injustice isn’t something to numb—it’s fuel for meaningful action.

We’ll also discuss powerful examples of using presence and compassion to shift perspectives, even in the most entrenched situations.

If you want tools to navigate conflict, protect your well-being, and become a more effective ally in the world, this episode is for you.

Tune in and learn how to heal, stand firm in your values, and sustain your activism without sacrificing yourself and without burning out.

Ever heard the saying, “Idle hands are the devil’s workshop”? 🤔

We’ve been told that too much free time is the problem. Leisure makes us lazy, distracted, and overindulgent. Even Dr. Anna Lembke argues this in Dopamine Nation – too much free time leads to dopamine over-consumption and addiction. 

But here’s my hot take: 

The real issue is that we’ve been conditioned to believe our worth = our productivity. So when downtime shows up, our nervous systems panic. Stillness feels unsafe. Rest feels like failure. And we end up filling our “free time” with things that exhaust us (overthinking, stressing, scrolling, distracting ourselves) instead of nourishing us.

In this "hot take" episode, I’m breaking down why more free time isn’t the problem (it’s actually the opportunity) and what you need to relearn NOW, before the future gives us even more hours back (🤞fingers crossed!).

If you’re tired of running on fumes and ready to finally feel safe doing less, this one’s for you. 💜💯

This week’s episode is a little different—it wasn’t planned, but that’s the point.

When my fiancé’s back injury sent us to the ER, my carefully mapped-out week unraveled. Old me would have spiraled—frustrated, resentful, guilty, and overwhelmed. But this time, I leaned on the tools I teach: nervous system regulation, mindset shifts, and self-trust.

In this short, behind-the-scenes episode, I share how I navigated a week that went completely off the rails and why these tools matter most when life doesn’t go according to plan.

You’ll walk away with practical reflections you can use to meet your own curveballs with more resilience, clarity, and calm.

Plus, if you’re ready to go deeper, I share how you can join my Burnout Free Me group coaching program to put these tools into practice with guidance and support.

Burnout in veterinary medicine is real, and it’s costing many vets their energy, purpose, and joy.

If you’ve been running on empty and wondering if there’s a better way, this episode will help you take the first step back toward balance.

Veterinarians and other high achievers are no strangers to long hours, high standards, and pushing past their limits. But what happens when that constant drive starts to take a toll on the body?

In this episode of Daring DVM, Dr. Amy Grimm discusses with Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Restore and Blossom podcast host Krisie Stanley, how stress affects gut health, why symptoms like brain fog and fatigue may be connected, and simple daily habits busy women can use to restore balance and feel their best.
