Why Burnout Is Often An Alignment Problem, Not A Time Problem With Dr. Olga Deengar

🎙️ 𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗵𝘆𝘀𝗶𝗰𝗶𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗣𝗼𝗱𝗰𝗮𝘀𝘁 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗵𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗗𝗿. 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝘅 𝗦𝗰𝗵𝗹𝗼𝗲.

💡 What if physician burnout is not just about long hours but about living out of alignment with the life you actually want?

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Dr. Olga Deengar, board-certified hospitalist in the U.S. and Canada, certified life coach, founder of Coach Olga MD, creator of the DAMA Method, and host of the Coffee Play Date Podcast. Olga shares her journey from working 70-hour weeks as a full-time hospitalist to navigating a major identity shift when she became a full-time mom after moving to Florida. What followed was a powerful reframe around mindset, purpose, and building medicine on her own terms. 

This conversation is about a lot more than burnout. We dive into identity, vision, boundaries, entrepreneurship, and the courage it takes to stop living on autopilot and start building a life that feels more intentional, aligned, and free. Olga also shares how she built her coaching business, developed the DAMA framework, created alternative income streams, and began practicing medicine in a way that better fits the life she actually wants.

🔥 𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗧𝗮𝗸𝗲𝗮𝘄𝗮𝘆𝘀:
 ✅ Burnout is often a signal that something in your life is out of alignment
 ✅ You do have a choice in how you practice medicine and build your life
 ✅ Clear vision plus small, consistent action creates real momentum
 ✅ The right community can dramatically accelerate courage and growth
 ✅ Building alternative income streams can create more flexibility and fulfillment
 ✅ Real freedom comes when your time reflects your values and priorities 

If you’ve ever felt stuck between medicine, family, identity, and the desire for something more…

but still are not sure what it looks like to build a life on your own terms…
