Creativity is coping: how to survive a job you want to leave (doctors' strike special)
Manage episode 381193281 series 3524308
At a time when moral is so low in healthcare, it can be especially difficult to be there if you're already thinking about changing careers.
While the doctors' strikes are addressing systemic changes that are much needed to improve pay and treatment, this episode talks about how we as individuals can take care of our mental health and wellbeing by leaning into creativity.
I share things I've learned since leaving medicine to become a designer that would have helped me cope with the challenges of being a doctor.
Listen to this episode to hear how:
- A creative outlet can empower us and restore our sense of agency and freedom
- Using our difficult experiences as inspiration can help us find healing and purpose
- We can expand our definition of creativity so anyone can find a creative outlet that is therapeutic and fulfilling to them
