In this episode, Dr. Ashwini Nadkarni, an Instructor of Psychiatry at Brigham and Women's Hospital, shares her expertise in wellness and physician burnout. We discuss her research in the area of physician burnout in women, explore the concept of cognitive load, and discuss the gender disparities in cognitive and emotional labor within the medical field. Even if you're not a physician, the discussion is relevant to anyone who is experiencing that feeling of burnout.
Tips include - taking vacation, not checking your email, a CBT guide to weaning yourself of checking email out of hours, and keeping a document that has a list of compliments that people have given you.
