Episode Synopsis

Send us a textToday we talk about the concept of "unsubscribing" – not just from email newsletters, but from the thoughts, beliefs, and habits that no longer serve us as physicians.Episode Highlights:We celebrate 3 years of "Ending Physician Overwhelm" (launched March 2022)Unsubscribe from harmful ideas and beliefs:The belief that we should be able to function in a broken healthcare system without supportThe notion that we must respond to every patient message in extensive detailThe idea that asking for help makes us "difficult" or "not a team player"Unsubscribe from complexity:Let go of complex solutions when simple ones would work betterStop believing that you must figure out everything on your ownRecognize when to delegate or refer instead of overcomplicating your workloadUnsubscribe from habits that don't serve you:Professional habits like doing tasks below your license levelPersonal habits that neglect your wellbeing (poor sleep, inadequate exercise)The pattern of putting yourself last while caring for everyone elseRemember: You deserve a sustainable, fulfilling life with meaningful work AND connection to the people you love outside of medicine.Resources Mentioned:"Atomic Habits" by James Clear"Tiny Habits" by BJ Fogg"Smarter Living" (book mentioned from library)Did you enjoy this episode?
