Abstract

Health and wellness remain hot topics in work environments, with decades of research on burnout prevention and job satisfaction. While organizational change is a vital intervention in fostering wellness, such efforts often take a significant amount of time and pose multiple systemic barriers (i.e., time, manpower, funding, administrative complexities, etc.). These challenges perpetuate factors that interfere with one’s ability to live a fulfilling life. Professional development efforts such as courses and mentorship programs are helpful resources but often focus on job-specific aims, leaving challenges that impact one’s personal life unaddressed. This scenario creates a loop where personal and professional experiences negatively affect each other. Especially in medicine and education, providers, administrators, educators, and trainees must be equipped with personal development tools to help sustain the passion and drive to perform while fully present in our lives. Attention to personal growth efforts is a helpful strategy that can initiate an immediate change and transform one’s experience without waiting for an entire organization or system to shift. Now imagine what if change can happen now?! The human brain (& body!) has an incredible ability to transform our experiences and send external ripples to influence larger shifts, and it starts within ourselves.
