Burnout seems to be common right now and not always the obvious reason behind the various challenges that sneak up in peoples' lives.
In this episode I'm joined by retired physician, Dr. Susan Landers, author of So Many Babies. We discuss Susan's journey through medical training, her experiences in high-stress NICU environments, and her personal struggles with burnout and postpartum depression.
Susan reflects on the challenges of balancing a demanding career with motherhood, the impact of stress on her marriage, and the significance of self-care for working mothers.
We also explore actionable strategies for combating burnout and the importance of community and support. The conversation highlights Susan's memoir, which captures her experiences as a physician and mother, offering insights into achieving work-life balance and prioritizing self-care. This is a do-not-miss episode.
