If you are starting to have fantasies about jumping in your car, driving away and never coming back.

If you are feeling jealous of your patients who are sick.... because at least they get to rest.

If you don't have the time or energy to practice self care- and you get frustrated when people even suggest it.

This episode is for YOU.

You are at a low point of burnout and feeling hopeless and trapped with no way out. There is ONE thing you absolutely need to do that will help you start to recover from burnout AND get some clarity and perspective in your career.

Listen in on this solocast where I discuss

• Clear signs that YOU need to take an extended break
• Reasons that we don't take a break and rationalize "pushing through" (and how to reframe these)
• Tangible steps you can take to get some job protected, extended time off.
• What to actually DO on the break once you take it (this part I read actual pages from my journal when I took my leave of absence during residency)

This episode is part pep talk, part practical guide to actually taking some time off to rest. I can't wait for you to listen in!
