Episode 119: The Dream vs. The Daily Reality
You had a vision of what becoming a doctor would look like—meaningful work, a deep sense of purpose, maybe even the kind of career you saw portrayed on TV. But over time, that dream got buried under charting, billing issues, and wellness programs that don’t actually help you feel better.
In this episode, I talk about the gap between what you imagined and what your day-to-day has become, and what it actually takes to reclaim the version of medicine and life you envisioned. Because just surviving the week isn’t the goal. You can shift things without blowing up your entire life.
We’ll discuss:
Why so many doctors feel disconnected from the version of themselves they dreamed of becoming.
How exhaustion, sunk costs, and systemic pressure keep us from imagining something better.
A client example that shows how small shifts at work can create major changes in how you feel.
A simple reflection to help you reconnect with the doctor you thought you’d be and decide what needs to change.
Your dream is still valid. It may have evolved, but it’s not gone. This episode will help you figure out what it looks like now and what needs to shift to support it.
