In the second half of our conversation with Dr. Mick Krasner, we dive deeper into resilience, rediscovery, and the role of adversity in personal and professional growth.

Key takeaways include:

• The 3 Ps for Managing Stress: Understanding that life isn’t perfect, personal, or permanent.
• Practical mindfulness techniques like the STOP practice and “Where Are My Feet?” for grounding yourself in high-stress moments.
• How personal exile and rediscovery can open doors to creativity and self-awareness in healthcare and beyond.

Dr. Krasner’s wisdom reminds us that healing extends beyond fixing—it’s about growing, connecting, and showing up authentically in all areas of life. Whether you're navigating burnout or seeking ways to reignite your passion for medicine, this episode is a must-listen.

Discover how to thrive, not just survive, in your journey as a healthcare professional.
