Ending Physician Overwhelm
I'm Megan Melo, board-certified Family and Obesity Medicine Physician and Physician Coach. In this podcast we talk about the many ways that burnout shows up in our lives, and what we can do about it. I'm on a mission to help Physicians take steps towards to heal burnout by unlearning the habits of perfectionism, people-pleasing and limiting beliefs so that we can lead healthier, happier lives.
The healthcare system is broken; but you don't have to wait until it's fixed to feel better. I'm here to help.

Ending Physician Overwhelm
Reset, Refresh, or Recharge?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Sometimes you feel off… but you can’t quite name why.
You’re tired.
Maybe a little cranky.
Maybe a little stuck.
And the instinct is often to change something big.
Quit the job.
Overhaul your schedule.
Throw everything out and start over.
But what if the real question isn’t what should I change?
What if the better question is:
What do I actually need right now?
Because not every moment calls for a big life overhaul.
Sometimes you need a reset.
Sometimes you need a refresh.
And sometimes you just need to recharge.
Knowing the difference can save you from wasting energy—or making decisions you’ll regret later.
In this episode of Ending Physician Overwhelm, we explore how to recognize which one your mind and body are actually asking for.
A Question to Sit With
The next time you feel overwhelmed, ask yourself:
What do I actually need right now?
- A reset to reconnect with my values?
- A refresh to update something that no longer fits?
- Or a recharge because my batteries are empty?
Your answer might change everything.
