How retraining the physician mindset can boost resilience and joy in medicine

Licensed counselor and coach Mary Remón discusses her article "A mindset shift for physicians: Retrain your brain to see what's going well." Mary explains how physicians are trained to scan constantly for risks, but that habit can carry over into daily life and lead to stress and burnout. She shares how intentional practices like reflecting on what went well each day can rewire the brain, strengthen relationships, and enhance diagnostic accuracy. Mary also highlights research showing how positive emotions fuel creativity and problem-solving, and she offers practical ways physicians can reconnect with meaning in their work. Listeners will take away simple, actionable strategies to build resilience, boost happiness, and sustain a fulfilling medical career.
