27: From Burn Out To Passion In Our Work with Physical Therapist, Sara Sohn
Description
“Change is terrifying, especially change when it’s somewhat subversive.” - Dr. Sara Sohn DPT, WCS
Choosing to go in a different direction from what society tells you to do can be difficult. Making decisions like not overworking, not giving to the ends of your depth, and not focusing on external measures of productivity goes against what many of us have been taught, but that’s what’s necessary if you want to create a practice and a life that is supportive to you.
Have you ever had a moment where you’re questioning whether you have the energy, time, or mental capacity to take care of a patient? Or a client gets vulnerable and your first reaction is to minimize their issues and internally compare your pain to theirs? These are some of the first signs many of us experience on the journey to burnout.
Fortunately, there’s a lot you can do to support yourself and come back from burnout or avoid it altogether. By figuring out your North Star, celebrating your accomplishments, and consciously making space for rest and healthy boundaries, you can establish a life that works for you instead of drains you.
Today, I’m excited to be joined by Dr. Sara Sohn, DPT, WCS, to explore how you can build that next-level life for yourself without burnout. We discuss our experiences with burnout, what it was like for Sara to create an aligned practice, the systemic issues contributing to how common burnout has become, practical strategies for achieving work-life balance, Sara’s "BURN" framework for navigating, and more.
Enjoy the episode, and let's innovate and integrate together!
