In brief, “it’s okay to not feel okay” and “to do well we ought to feel well”. The problem is that many of us don’t feel okay, hence this candid, caring and common-sense podcast. We timed it to coincide with what is- statistically at least- the most depressing day of the year, namely the third Monday of January. Otherwise known as “Blue Monday” it’s a day to take a moment, to reach out, to acknowledge that the job can be tough, and to be reminded that we need to care for the carers. There is nobody better than Dr. Shelly Dev to highlight the importance of burnout, wellness and medical culture. Thank you for your time and for the work you do. Take care of yourself. Dr. Dev has been a Staff Intensivist at Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre in Toronto since 2006, after completing her Internal Medicine residency and Critical Care Fellowship at The University of Toronto, followed by a Fellowship in Multimedia Education at the New England Journal of Medicine. She is a Clinician Educator and Associate Professor of Medicine, Director of Education in the Department of Critical Care Medicine at Sunnybrook and lead for Mentorship and Wellness in the Interdepartmental Division of Critical Care Medicine at the University of Toronto. She is an award-winning medical educator of undergraduate, postgraduate and continuing medical education audiences. In addition to nearly 300 lectures given to national and international audiences about healthcare worker mental health, burnout, resilience and medical culture, Dr. Dev has written and spoken extensively on these topics in the wider media. But, if asked, she would say her most significant accomplishment to date is continuing to convince 14-year-old Nathan and 12-year-old Jack that it is beyond cool to be seen with your mother in public.
