Episode #90: An Antidote to Stagnation and Boredom - the Portfolio Career


Listen Later

While some physicians are ready to fully transition out of clinical practice, others are looking for the best of both worlds: maintaining some clinical work and also pursuing nonclinical interests. Finding this balance through a portfolio career can keep your work interesting and prevent burnout by adding variety to your everyday routine. Today's guest, Dr. Jingyi Liu, knew early on this was the path for her and is already maintaining a portfolio career as a PGY-2 resident. She'll discuss how she knew this was the best fit for her and steps you can take to find a portfolio approach that works for you.
