One of the leading causes of burnout is the lack of respect from admin, staff and colleagues. The problem is, respect is a feeling, and feelings come from our thoughts. When we are burnt-out, our brain is in survival mode and primarily is run by the primitive part of our brain, which views most interactions as negative. Today we are going to discuss why we often feel disrespected when we are burnt-out and some strategies for what to do about it.

Beliefs are thoughts that we have thought over and over again. They are thoughts that we believe to be true. When we have beliefs about work, sometimes they can lead to burnout, as I quickly learned. By examining these beliefs, you can start to question whether your beliefs about work are really serving you or not. Listen to find out what beliefs are, and how they may be leading to burnout for you!

In medicine and on the road to get here, we have been taught many things about failure.  Mostly that it is bad. And that to be good, we must avoid it at all costs. After a recent event at work, I decided to dig deeper into failure and what we make it mean about us as physicians, and as people. Come listen today to see if you do the same, and how to go about addressing it.

Sunday Scaries. I'm pretty sure they should have their own ICD-10 code. And they suck. That's what I've decided. I used to struggle with this regularly, even on non-Sundays... Sometimes it was a mini-version of the Sunday Scaries, where I didn't want to get out of the car when I get to work. But I've found the way to get rid of the Sunday Scaries for GOOD. So come and listen to find out whether you have Sunday Scaries, where they come from, and what to do about it.

I'll admit it, I have had kind of a love/hate relationship with social media in the past. I have definitely used it as a source of buffering in the past. Especially while waiting on a delivery or on a surgery to start.  The negative consequences included me not doing my charts and orders in a timely fashion and it also contributed to my burnout!  This week we are going to discuss social media and it's affects on our brains.  We will discuss how to evaluate whether this is something that you need to work on or not, and the questions to ask yourself to get started.  

So often our Burnout story is a rough one. It is a painful one. It can be full of negative emotions and terrible details. In today's episode, we talk about how I rewrote my burnout story, and how you can too. Tune in to hear my original burn out story and how I changed it.

Buffering can show up a lot of ways in our lives, like emotional eating, having a glass of wine and watching Netflix or scrolling our phones. Essentially what we are doing is trying to escape or trying to feel better. Come learn more about how to tell if you are buffering and what to do about it! 

While on call this week, it was interesting to see my brain go into a scarcity mindset, and it got me thinking about how scarcity can play into burnout. Come listen to what scarcity is, how it can show up in our lives, and how we can get out of scarcity and live from a place of abundance instead.  I'd also love it if you left me a review on iTunes so I can get the word out to other OB/GYN's!
