Episode 87
No matter how exhausted or drained you felt, you kept going. Why is that?
Today, we unpack one of the biggest myths surrounding burnout—that it’s merely about depleted energy reserves. We explore why the common metaphor of the Energizer Bunny running out of batteries fails to capture the reality of burnout for physicians.
