E20 - Burnout - Beyond the Rhetoric

  • Summary

  • Health practitioner burnout - it's the triple-edged sword that injures practitioners, patients, and the health system.


    In this episode, psychologist Dr Shaun Prentice joins me to discuss burnout:

    • What causes it (the answer may surprise you!)
    • How to prevent it.
    • How to manage it.

    Along the way we address the hard questions including "At what point does burnout signal that it is time to leave the profession?"


    If you or someone you know has burnout, has been burned out, or may be approaching it, this is one episode not to be missed.


    A strangly uplifting listen, and one of my personal favourite guest interviews to date.
