In this episode of the So You Want to Work in Healthcare podcast, host Leigha, a physician assistant, delves into the pressing issue of burnout in the healthcare profession. She explores the concept of taking a sabbatical as a potential remedy for burnout, sharing her personal experiences and insights. Leigha emphasizes that while a sabbatical can be a transformative decision, it is crucial to approach this time off with intention and purpose. She candidly discusses the common misconception that simply stepping away from work will magically resolve burnout, urging listeners to consider how they can effectively use their time away to truly reset and heal. Tune in for practical advice on navigating burnout and rediscovering the life you deserve, both in and out of scrubs.
