Shift Happens: The Health Podcast for Healthcare Workers

The Real Reason You're Burnt Out (And No, It’s Not the Pandemic)


Listen Later

Still blaming the pandemic for your burnout? Let’s cut the crap. In this episode of Shift Happens, I’m pulling back the curtain on the real causes of burnout in healthcare—and spoiler alert: it’s not a virus, it’s the system. From skipped lunches and cold coffee to pizza party “solutions” and Press Ganey meetings from hell, we’re calling out the bullsh*t and talking about how to actually feel better again.

If you’ve been running on fumes, rage-scrolling job boards, or crying in the breakroom (no shame, we’ve all been there), this episode is your permission slip to stop surviving and start taking your life back. One brutally honest truth bomb at a time.

🔍 Inside this episode:

  • Why “patient first” is keeping you stuck and sick

  • What burnout really looks like behind the scenes

  • How to stop being the hospital’s yes-girl

  • The 4 types of burnout (and how to find yours)
