Burnout is a relatively new term for a fairly common experience. It’s more than just feeling a little “stressed out” because if left unchecked, it can show up as physical, mental, and emotional illness — and can have some pretty devastating impacts down the road. In this episode, Bill talks with a Psychiatrist and Coach, Dr. Manuel Astruc MD. They talk about how he started in his field and how he decided to start his own business. He also shares his experience of going through burnout himself.    Dr. Astruc first became interested in psychiatry during medical school. He realized that his favorite part of rotations was sitting down with patients after his rounds were completed, getting to hear their stories and know them individually.   Dr. Astruc graduated from the Virginia Commonwealth School of Medicine in Psychiatry and has worked as the medical director of the Saratoga Hospital Mental Health Unit, the medical director of Saratoga County Alcohol and Substance Abuse Services, and as a coach for entrepreneurs. He’s spent the last 15+ years in private practice in general psychiatry.   With over 50,000 hours of experience helping people find their way out of mental illness, Dr. Astruc loves getting to know his patients and helping them on their journey from despair to hope.
