Have you ever felt extreme exhaustion and stress that is causing you to feel beyond what you can handle physically, emotionally and mentally?

In this episode, we have Dr. Mary Leung, a highly accomplished physician who is board-certified in internal medicine, medical oncology, and hematology. Dr. Leung not only shares about herself but also discusses her mission to assist other physicians in better time management. She explains that burnout is essentially caused by chronic stress, and when we experience stress, it has a negative impact on our weight, leading to weight gain. Therefore, it is crucial for us to recognize the signs of burnout or stress, acknowledge the presence of stress, and take a break. By pausing and allowing ourselves to rest, we can refuel and recharge.

About Dr. Mary Leung

Dr. Mary Leung is a physician who is board-certified in internal medicine, medical oncology and hematology. She is also a certified life coach who is passionate about serving physicians who are stressed, overwhelmed and burned-out. Dr. Mary was working and charting after hours many nights and weekends until life coaching transformed her life. She is now going home more 2.5 hours earlier than before, with all her clinical work completed for the day. From the depths of her own experience, Dr. Mary founded Shining With Gratitude MD, whose ardent purpose is to guide other physicians through their unique situations — so they can feel better, have more time outside of their clinical work, regain control, have more clarity and rediscover joy in life. Dr. Mary believes that if physicians can enjoy practicing medicine again, they can take better care of their patients. Through renewal, they can shine brighter for their families and all the lives they touch.
