Burnout—it’s a silent epidemic, especially among healthcare professionals. But what if healing from burnout is truly resolved by tuning into the wisdom of your own body?
In today’s episode, I’m interviewing Dr. Jeffrey Carter, a healthcare professional who has experienced burnout firsthand.
He uncovers how perfectionism, high-stress environments, and workaholic tendencies can lead to burnout and, more importantly, how somatic healing can offer a path to recovery and reclaiming balance in life.
In this podcast episode, Dr. Carter takes us through:
- His personal experience with burnout and how it impacts different professions.
- The link between healthcare stress, exhaustion, and burnout.
- How burnout affects relationships and daily interactions.
- His early life struggles with perfectionism and achievement.
- The dangers of using work as a form of escape/numbing mechanism.
- The importance of somatic practices to release tension and heal.
- How self-awareness and taking responsibility can help manage burnout.
- How support systems are crucial for healing.
And so much more!
Dr. Jeffrey Carter, MD, is a practicing Trauma Surgeon, Critical Care Doctor, and Integrative Medicine Specialist.
After four years of medical school and eight years of training in Trauma Surgery, Dr. Carter experienced physician burnout during his early thirties, and his health suffered as a result. He initially sought help through the traditional avenues with some success, but still, something was missing.
Ultimately, Dr. Carter dedicated himself to becoming healthy and found power in holistic therapies, which led him to study Integrative Medicine at the Andrew Weil Center for Integrative Medicine at the University of Arizona in Tucson. He became a Fellow of Integrative Medicine in 2023.
Dr. Carter believes in partnering with his patients in patient-centered care. This relational doctor-patient relationship produces the best outcomes. He is a Gold Humanism Society Inductee and has contributed to many publications, presentations, posters, and book chapters.
