About this listen

 Ever felt like you were falling apart while the world expected you to hold it all together? In this raw and revealing solo episode of Save Yourself, Dr. Amy shares a deeply personal story she’s never told before—from her grueling days as a medical resident in Boston, to a moment of physical injury, emotional burnout, and the crushing weight of unsupportive leadership. But this isn’t just a story of struggle—it’s a story of strength. Dr. Amy takes us behind the scenes of that intense chapter, reflecting on what she wishes her younger self knew, and the powerful mindset shifts that helped her rebuild. You’ll also get practical tools for preventing burnout, protecting your energy, and finding healing through small but powerful lifestyle changes like sunlight, movement, community, and food. By the end, you’ll walk away with a toolkit for resilience—and a reminder that you can rewrite your story, no matter how tough the chapter you’re in.
