“The secret to thriving is embracing change, not resisting it.” In this episode, I share how I made the shift from feeling burned out as a physician to finding success as an entrepreneur in functional medicine—all by learning to embrace change instead of fighting it. Being both a mom and a practitioner taught me to adapt and grow in ways I never expected.

To avoid burnout, it’s crucial to design a practice that evolves with you. I offer practical insights on how you can reflect on your values, lean into discomfort, and follow your curiosity to create a career that feels truly aligned and fulfilling. Whether you’re a healer, a business owner, or both, ask yourself—how can you create a professional life that not only supports your passion but also your well-being? 

Through my mentorship and membership programs, I guide healthcare professionals to tap into their unique talents and deliver meaningful care without sacrificing themselves in the process.

This episode is for anyone looking to grow as a healer, an entrepreneur, or simply someone who wants to stay curious and evolve—both personally and professionally.

Quotes

• “The secret to thriving is embracing change, not resisting it.” (00:20 | Dr. Lara Salyer)

• “Evolution is your strength. If you lean into it and do those three things, where you reflect regularly, you trust the discomfort, and then you lean into what you’re curious about, that can help unlock a different path that could lead to greater things.” (14:57 | Dr. Lara Salyer) 


• “You need to design a career that evolves with you, that has that flexibility to bend and to expand and contract, one that reflects your unique skills and interests and passions.” (24:15 | Dr. Lara Salyer)


• “On the other side of change is always something more beautiful than you can ever imagine.” (26:15 | Dr. Lara Salyer)
