About this listen

In healthcare today, change is constant—and emotional fatigue is real. In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Karen Weiner to explore what it really takes to lead when clinicians are stretched thin, burned out, and wondering if the work is still sustainable.

Karen shares hard-earned lessons from her journey—from primary care pediatrician to CEO of a large medical group—leading through organizational transformation, a Fortune 6 acquisition, and the unprecedented pressures of the pandemic.

We talk about:

  • Why resistance to change often hides fear, not defiance
  • The deep link between burnout, moral injury, and autonomy
  • How opting into leadership can restore meaning and agency
  • Why vulnerability is a leadership strength, not a weakness
  • Practical ways to build trust and resilience in your teams

If you’re leading change, navigating tough seasons, or wondering how to stay grounded while doing this important work—this conversation is for you.
