We know that healthcare workers are burned out and exhausted. Provider mental health is a huge issue… but are the institutions listening?  This week on It’s OK, burnout expert Dr. Jessi Gold talks to us about (obviously) burnout, but also ways HCW* can start to change the workplace culture into one that actually values the human workforce. Sound unlikely? Listen in for Dr. Gold’s ideas for a grassroots movement - using the language of capitalism to get the c-suite to listen. *We talk a bunch about HCW in this episode, but the topics involved are relevant to everyone who feels even a little bit exhausted by the pressures of the world.  Dr. Gold’s new book, <a href="https://bookshop.org/a/96103/9781982199777">How Do You Feel?: One Doctor's Search for Humanity in Medicine</a>, is out on October 8, 2024. For more info visit <a href="https://www.drjessigold.com/how-do-you-feel-book-by-jessi-gold-md/">drjessigold.com</a>   In this episode we cover:   <ul> <li aria-level="1">Can you be emotionless and still practice good medicine?</li> <li aria-level="1">How medical training seeks out perfectionists, and then uses that perfectionism as a way to wring out even more work </li> <li aria-level="1">Why you can’t self-care your way out of burnout, but you can support yourself inside the catastrophe</li> <li aria-level="1">Ways to get the administration to start valuing their workforce (spoiler: it involves speaking the language of capitalism!) </li> </ul>   We're re-releasing some of our favorite episodes from the first 3 seasons.
