Ending Physician Overwhelm
I'm Megan Melo, board-certified Family and Obesity Medicine Physician and Physician Coach. In this podcast we talk about the many ways that burnout shows up in our lives, and what we can do about it. I'm on a mission to help Physicians take steps towards to heal burnout by unlearning the habits of perfectionism, people-pleasing and limiting beliefs so that we can lead healthier, happier lives.
The healthcare system is broken; but you don't have to wait until it's fixed to feel better. I'm here to help.

Ending Physician Overwhelm
Miserable Comfort
At some point in our lives we've probably all felt like we've settled into a groove where everything is comfortable enough and there's nothing standing in the way of life going on like this for a while.
But what if you know deep down that you want to change something about your life? It can be EXTREMELY hard to make that decision to make a change when you know that you might be straying away from comfort and stepping into the" unknown". But you also know that if you don't make a change, you might have regrets or feel unfulfilled.
This is called miserable discomfort, and it's what we're going to be talking about this week on the Ending Physician Overwhelm Podcast. As you listen, I encourage you all to dream big and consider what is possible beyond your current circumstances. I'll share stories of incredible physicians breaking free from the traditional mold of medicine to embrace their passion and find professional freedom. We'll reflect on areas of our lives that might be holding us back, and discuss ways in which we can side-step them to take the first step forward to a life that aligns more with what we dream of.
