  • Summary

  • Episode PearlsI’ve found that my beautiful PA life looks like much more than being a PA. I’ve found so much joy and fulfillment in embracing the other parts of my identity that exist outside of medicine.Authenticity requires courage—the courage to own your truth and identity. Being your authentic self is exhausting, but so is maintaining a façade and hiding your truth. [By the way, I 100% recognize my privilege in saying this—and for some folks, their safety requires maintaining anonymity. If this is you: I see you.]Self-care is not selfish. Caring for yourself is the most important thing you can do for yourself and for your patients.Share your struggles: It is okay to not be okay. Talking about it takes away its power and allows you to get support in your hour of need.Words of Wisdom from this Episode“Taking care of myself is the best way in which I can provide the best care to my patients.” - @rachel.la.costa“There is this martyrdom complex that happens not only in healthcare…but in motherhood as well. We think that the way we can show the most love and care for our children or our patients is by giving all of ourselves to the people in our lives.” - @rachel.la.costa“Burnout is the accumulation of the consequences of neglecting yourself.” - @rachel.la.costa“It is okay to not be okay. Recognizing it is the first step and admitting is important too. And my best piece of advice? Tell somebody. Tell somebody about how you’re struggling right now.
