About this listen

In this episode, Dr. Resa E. Lewiss speaks with Jillian Johnsrud, author of Retire Often and mini-retirement coach, about taking intentional career breaks to combat burnout and realign with what matters most. Jillian defines mini-retirements as breaks of a month or longer where professionals step away from their primary career to focus on recovery, adventure, or family time. She works primarily with high-achieving professionals who have over-indexed on career advancement while under-indexing on lifestyle and wellbeing. The conversation explores the unique challenges facing healthcare professionals, including a dangerous cultural narrative instilled during medical training that physicians must suffer, lack agency, and simply endure. This programming makes it extraordinarily difficult for doctors to prioritize their own health and take necessary breaks.
