In this enlightening conversation, Dr. Susannah Ward shares powerful insights on physician wellness and the emerging role of Chief Medical Wellness Officers in preventing burnout among doctors. We explore innovative systemic approaches to healthcare worker wellbeing, including anonymous reporting systems for workplace issues and dedicated wellness leadership positions with executive support. Dr. Ward also discusses her upcoming "Be Chill CPD" retreat at Caves Beach, where doctors can complete their continuing professional development requirements while engaging in restorative practices like yoga and mindfulness. Join us to discover how creating psychologically safe workplaces and prioritizing connection can transform medical culture from one of burnout to one of sustainable practice.

I acknowledge that I create this podcast on the traditional lands of the Wiradjuri people, who have been the custodians of this land around Orange, New South Wales, for thousands of generations. I pay my respects to Wiradjuri Elders past, present, and emerging, and recognize the continuing connection to land, waters, and culture. This acknowledgment is a small but important step in recognizing the sovereignty of First Nations peoples and the deep historical and ongoing relationship with Country.
