Beyond Burnout: Recovery Through Lifestyle and Career Alignment
Presented by Katie Cooper
Description
Burnout among allied health professionals is widely recognized, yet many clinicians lack practical guidance on how to recover in ways that align with the realities of healthcare work. A significant practice gap exists in translating burnout awareness into sustainable lifestyle habits and informed career decisions that support long-term well-being and professional longevity. Without structured support, clinicians may return to the same patterns that contribute to ongoing stress and exhaustion.
This webinar addresses this gap by providing evidence-informed strategies to support recovery from burnout through healthy lifestyle habits, including exercise, nutrition, and hydration, as well as examining job-fit considerations that influence burnout risk across healthcare settings. Participants will be guided through reflection and planning to identify realistic, actionable changes that support recovery and sustainability.
This course is applicable to allied health professionals practicing in all clinical and nonclinical settings and is designed to support clinicians seeking to restore energy, improve alignment between work and life demands, and reduce the risk of recurrent burnout.
