Life After Medicine: How To Make a Career Change, Beat Burnout & Find Your Purpose For Doctors

[Permission to Pivot] How to Make a Career Change Even When It Disappoints Others


Listen Later


As the holidays approach, many of us feel the weight of family expectations—especially those tied to being a healthcare professional. In this episode, I dive deep into the mindset shift needed to break free from people-pleasing tendencies and live a life aligned with YOUR values.

You’ll discover:

  • Why trying to avoid disappointing others leaves you drained and unfulfilled.
  • How to make the bold choice to prioritize yourself without guilt.
  • Practical ways to reframe societal and familial pressures.
  • The liberating power of choosing authenticity over approval.

If you’ve ever struggled with stepping away from others’ expectations (especially around big career changes), this episode is your permission slip to start living life on your terms.

👉 Bonus: I share personal stories from my journey of leaving medicine, learning to embrace disappointment, and finding true freedom.

Press play and take the first step toward setting yourself free!
