If you're a resident dealing with crushing debt, long hours, and overwhelming pressure to “hold it together,” you’re not alone — but you might be suffering in silence. In this episode, Coach JPMD shares the gut-wrenching statistic that sparked this new “Did You Know?” series and opens a conversation that far too many in medicine avoid.

• Learn how financial stress, burnout, and isolation intersect and push doctors to the edge
