Podcast Episode 97 – The Proven Strategy that will Lead to the Career that You Love – Ken Coleman

Episode 97 – Up to 80% of physicians report experiencing symptoms of burnout. >60% of all people nationally feel some degree of dissatisfaction at work. If you’re one of those people, maybe it’s because you feel stuck in neutral. Maybe you’re just not getting what you need from the people that work with you. As Ken Coleman discusses in this episode, there’s a simple fix.

Here’s the reality: no one cares enough to help you if you don’t go help yourself. You need to seize opportunities when they present themselves. More than that, you need to CREATE opportunities for yourself! Using The Proximity Principle, Ken Coleman will teach us in this episode how to get around the right people and put the right practices in place in order to create opportunities.

It’s time to Residency-Proof Your Marriage!

I’m excited to tell you about a new online course I’m launching called “Residency-Proof Your Marriage.” I’ve seen way too many couples get divorced or see their relationships go sour during their medical career. Medical training is an inherently divisive time, so you have to work to combat that!

This online video course will coach you through setting expectations, communicating effectively, getting on the same page with finances, and keeping your relationship thriving during a difficult time. Whether you’re in medical school, residency, or out in clinical practice, Residency-Proof Your Marriage is going to help you build a thriving medical marriage.

This is a very inexpensive investment in your marriage. A weekend marriage retreat will cost upwards of $1000 between food, registration, lodging, and vacation time. This course is just a fraction of that cost and you can complete it on your own time!

The course is also eligible for CME credits, so you can use your employer’s CME funds to sign up.

Registration for the course is open NOW!
