Episode 210: Beating Back Burnout with Clark Gaither

If you’ve ever faced burnout, then this discussion I have with Dr. Clark Gaither is definitely for you.  Dr. Gaither is a family physician, author, speaker, blogger, corporate consultant, personal life coach, and an expert on Job Related Burnout. His latest book on this topic, *Reignite*, was released in March 2018.

Specifics that we covered on the show include:

  • Why he is so fascinated with job-related burnout.
  • How burnout nearly led him to leave his thriving medicine practice.
  • What steps he took to take on his burnout…and beat it back.
  • What “presenteeism” is and how it can impact burnout.
  • How to recognize the signs of burnout – even those that are a little more subtle than others.
  • The relationship between stress and burnout and what the 3 principle hallmarks of burnout are and how to face them so you can reignite your work (and more).
