I recently had the opportunity to host a series of conversations about physician burnout across specialties.

Physicians from internal medicine, emergency medicine, family medicine, oncology, and pediatrics shared what burnout actually looks like in their fields, what contributes to it, and how it can show up differently across areas of medicine. Special thanks to all fifteen physicians who contributed to the series.

The series, Burnout by Specialty, was produced by Doctors on Social Media. A tremendous amount of work went on behind the scenes to bring it together. Special thanks to Dana Corriel, MD for producing and editing the series.

The first episode will be released April 14, with new episodes each week for five weeks.

Here’s a short preview of the conversations.

Looking forward to hosting this series and learning from physicians in six different specialties! https://www.facebook.com/share/p/17DiMWRPES/

Open call to physicians to be guests on a new series: “Burnout: A Specialty Series.”

Six specialties. Six conversations. One therapist-led exploration of burnout.

I will be hosting this series, bringing together small groups of physicians from the same specialty for each episode to talk honestly about how burnout uniquely shows up in their field, including what contributes to it and what often goes unspoken.

The goal is thoughtful, grounded conversation that reflects the realities of modern medical practice and offers language that feels accurate and useful.

Grateful to Dana Corriel, MD, and (Doctors on Social Media) for creating and promoting this series. If this resonates with you, or someone you know, I would welcome the connection.

Stay tuned!

Would you trust a robot with your emotions?
Illinois just became the first state to ban AI therapy — and for good reason! Read my take here:

AI forgets things. It misfires. It mixes up memories and data. It spews nonsense. And sometimes makes things up completely. I’ve been a licensed therapist for 25 years, practicing in Illinois and working in crisis centers. I don’t think AI can replace humans for therapy. It may never be able to....

💡What if your brain could learn to scan for what's going well, just as easily as it scans for what might go wrong?

That mindset shift can change how we feel, lead and connect — especially in healthcare.
