Today we are celebrating three years of The Burnout Doctor Podcast! Thank you for following-along and engaging on this journey together. To celebrate, I’ll answer 5 reflection questions I use when looking back on goals and milestones.

Welcome back to The Burnout Doctor Podcast, I’m your host Dr. Jessica Louie. Today, we are answering 5 reflection questions to celebrate our 3-year anniversary on the podcast. Thank you for sharing your action steps from our last episode on decision fatigue and how to make money from home. Many of you are taking action by using our complimentary Burnout Starter Kit and Financial Freedom Kit – don’t forget to download yours today! We all write our own stories in our lives and homes. Let’s all bring joy into home and joy into work.

The biggest gift this anniversary is leaving a star rating and review on iTunes.

How does it feel to reach this milestone?

Honestly, it feels amazing. There were times I seriously doubted I would make it for three whole years with consistent podcast episodes. I knew there were so many topics I wanted to share with all of you on each episode but that didn’t prevent writers block some late nights!

What brought you joy during this journey?

YOU! My listeners! Tuning in each Thursday and sending me emails and direct messages on what episodes really touched you, the story that resonated with you and the reviews that you shared of the content. It has touched my heart to hear that my story has reached into your home and made a difference in your life. This is what brings me joy daily.

What was something that was difficult on this journey to your three-year anniversary?

Feeling alone while podcasting into a microphone and hoping that the topic resonated with you and you took ACTION from it. I’m a big believer in proactive and action-taking learning and not passive listening.

What are you most proud of on this journey?

How my stories have resonated with you and helped you take action in your own life. I often here that a story about my burnout or my financial situation or my simplifying journey was so similar to your own.

The top one is our series on Financial Well-being and Episodes 34-37 (view here), along with our financial discussions in episode 146 on paying off all our student loans, episode 152 on why I drive a 22-yer old car. Stay tuned for upcoming episodes on how we budget for a new baby and create generational wealth in our family.

The first 8 episodes (view here) are definitely some of the most popular that outline burnout and allow you to apply the concepts in our FREE Podcast Workbook (get here). I highly recommend going back to these if you missed them and making sure you have the free workbook to take action.

The Pharmacist Month Stories on the podcast in October 2020. This was one of the largest campaigns I took on that sprouted from an idea in late August 2020. I wanted to feature unique pharmacist career paths and their own simplifying or burnout stories on the podcast for American Pharmacist Month in October. I gathered together 27 pharmacists and published an episode every day during October and it honestly, was the best experience and something I hope helps so many fellow pharmacists, residents and students.

What would you change on this journey to your three-year anniversary?

Honestly, nothing right now. It’s been a joy to connect with all of you, add more value on our YouTube channel over the past year, and add additional resources to our freebies and online shop for you to enjoy. We are continuing to stay true to our roots with no ads on the podcast, short episodes to digest and minimal interviews.

Those are the 5 questions I ask on the way to BIG MILESTONES in life!

The biggest gift this anniversary is leaving a star rating and review on iTunes.
