Physicians often reach out to me for advice about whether they should quit being a physician. I have a hard time giving advice on that subject because it seems like there are really only two options. The first option is to tough it out and finish what you started. The second option is to follow your dreams, even if they lead you away from medicine. So how do you know which path to take? 

Chelsea Turgeon wrote the book on it - literally. Listen to this week's episode of the Physician Philosopher podcast to learn more about her story and the framework she created for deciding if a career in medicine is right for you long term, or if you should consider pivoting out of the medical field entirely.
