Finding Purpose Beyond Burnout with Dr. Amruti Borad

Burnout is an all-too-common struggle for healthcare professionals, but it doesn’t have to define your career. What if burnout could be a turning point instead of an endpoint? In this episode of The Mental Health & Wellness Show, I, Dr. Tomi Mitchell, am joined by Dr. Amruti Borad—concierge osteopathic family medicine physician, TEDx speaker, and physician coach—to explore her personal journey through burnout and how she reinvented her career to find greater fulfillment and balance. In this episode, you’ll learn:The early warning signs of burnout and how to recognize them (self-awareness, emotional exhaustion, depersonalization)How personal and professional pressures contribute to burnout (career transitions, leadership stress, work-life balance)Why flexibility and autonomy are key to preventing burnout (career reinvention, concierge medicine, patient-centered care)How shifting career environments can create a more sustainable work-life balance (reducing workload, setting boundaries, finding supportive workplaces)The role of mental health education and financial literacy in medical training (advocacy, systemic change)How physicians can redefine their careers and align them with their personal goals (alternative career paths, professional fulfillment, embracing change)The importance of support systems and mentorship in navigating burnout (community, networking) Dr. Amruti Borad is a seasoned physician who has experienced burnout twice in her career—once in a traditional academic setting and later in leadership roles during the COVID-19 pandemic. Through these challenges, she discovered the power of shifting her work environment, prioritizing wellness, and advocating for systemic changes in healthcare. Now, as a physician coach, she helps others navigate career transitions and prevent burnout before it takes a toll on their well-being.
