I love to write, especially when I leave a session better than I began; so hear me out.

I attended Dr. Christopher’s online burnout workshop on April 25, 2026, and it gave me a perspective I didn’t realize I needed.

As an anesthesiologist, I’m used to working in a constant state of alertness—monitoring, anticipating, intervening. Over time, that baseline level of pressure just starts to feel normal. What I appreciated about this workshop was how clearly he laid out the “vicious pathway” of chronic stress. It put words to something I think many of us experience but don’t always stop to examine.

One part that really stuck with me was the focus on the mind-body connection. It made me reflect on how often I’ve brushed off physical signs of stress—fatigue, tension, that constant underlying edge—as just part of the job. Seeing how closely those physical responses are tied to what’s happening mentally was a bit of a wake-up call.

The concept of a “cornerstone driver” of burnout also resonated. It helped me step back and realize that it’s not everything all at once—it’s a few patterns that keep repeating and quietly affecting everything else. That shift alone made things feel more manageable.

I walked away from the session with a level of clarity I hadn’t felt in some time—not in an overwhelming way, but in a steady, practical sense. I would recommend this to any physician, and also those in high-acuity fields who have become accustomed to shouldering more than is sustainable.

I attended Chris' wellbeing class online titled ' a clear and unique framework for managing physician burnout' As a GP practicing in the UK who has struggled with burnout myself, I found it refreshing to see it in a different perspective. He explained the neuroscience and neurophysiology behind burnout in a clear and concise manner, and in a way that was very relatable to me as a clinician. In particular, I was impressed by his 'RISE' framework, which provided a structured way to approach, assess, and manage burnout.
I found it very informative and useful, and I went away with more tools in my arsenal to enable me manage burnout better. I highly recommend this for doctors, and for any high functioning professional, who is trying to maintain a healthy physical and mental lifestyle in this chaotic world of today.

The physician burnout workshop was an excellent, highly practical discussion of the hidden causes of chronic stress and burnout that many physicians often ignore.
He went into details about the pitfall of mindfulness-focused solutions as a one size fits all appraoch.
Instead, he introduced the RISE framework which provides a personalized solution to a physician's burnout cause and stressors.
I left with a clearer understanding of my stressors and their patterns including a structured approach to protect myself against burnout.
If you’re a physician quietly pushing through it, you will find this workshop absolutely useful (Obstetrics and Gynaecology)
