The biggest threat to your health isn't your diet or your genes. It's your doctor's burnout. And the system is designed to create it, leaving you with the consequences.
What you'll learn
- Physician burnout is a systemic issue, not a personal failing, with rates exceeding 60% in many specialties.
- A burnt-out doctor is more likely to make errors, miss diagnoses, and rely on prescriptions over root-cause analysis.
- Red flags include rushed appointments, dismissiveness, and a lack of personalized questions about your lifestyle.
- True health requires a partnership with your practitioner, not a top-down directive from a stressed provider.
- You must become your own advocate, armed with data and a clear understanding of your own body.

started thinking about a about this I started thinking about a specific book that I've read by Dr David specific book that I've read by Dr David specific book that I've read by Dr David Hawkins which he talks about the levels Hawkins which he talks about the levels Hawkins which he talks about the levels of consciousness and I'm just going to of consciousness and I'm just going to of consciousness and I'm just going to make this really really simple for those make this really really simple for those make this really really simple for those of you that don't know much about this of you that don't know much about this of you that don't know much about this but there you know I think we all can but there you know I think we all can but there you know I think we all can relate to the idea that when we are in a relate to the idea that when we are in a relate to the idea that when we are in a certain level of Consciousness or we're certain level of Consciousness or we're certain level of Consciousness or we're experiencing certain emotions we feel experiencing certain emotions we feel experiencing certain emotions we feel good if we're in a place of looking good if we're in a place of looking good if we're in a place of looking around and thinking wow life is good and around and thinking wow life is good and around and thinking wow life is good and there's a lot of good things happening I there's a lot of good things happening I there's a lot of good things happening I have so much gratitude for the people in have so much gratitude for the people in have so much gratitude

the emotions that keep us really disempowered they that keep us really disempowered they that keep us really disempowered they keep us really debilitated and this keep us really debilitated and this keep us really debilitated and this could be fear anger rage grief could be fear anger rage grief could be fear anger rage grief shame and so what David Hawkins did is shame and so what David Hawkins did is shame and so what David Hawkins did is he he created a map literally gave it a he he created a map literally gave it a he he created a map literally gave it a numerical value to say when you are numerical value to say when you are numerical value to say when you are experiencing this emotion or you are in experiencing this emotion or you are in experiencing this emotion or you are in this level of Consciousness you are at this level of Consciousness you are at this level of Consciousness you are at this number versus this number and so this number versus this number and so this number versus this number and so essentially the the dummy version of essentially the the dummy version of essentially the the dummy version of this is 200 is is right in the middle this is 200 is is right in the middle this is 200 is is right in the middle and if if you're above 200 you're in and if if you're above 200 you're in and if if you're above 200 you're in higher vibration emotions you are higher vibration emotions you are higher vibration emotions you are experiencing a higher level of experiencing a higher level of experiencing a higher level of Consciousness so this is where joy and Consciousness so this is where joy and Consciousness so this is where joy and happiness and gratitude and happiness and gratitude and happiness and gratitude and Enlightenment live and then if you're Enlightenment live and then if you're Enlightenment live and then if you're below 200 you're living in more of a below 200 you're living in more of a below 200 you're living in more of a state of either fear or grief or shame state of either fear or grief or shame state of either fear or grief or shame or anger rage Etc and what's very or anger rage Etc and what's very or anger rage Etc and what's very interesting about it is that guilt and interesting about it is that guilt and interesting about it is that guilt and shame are the lowest vibration emotions shame are the lowest vibration

either service provider ERS or our external service provider ERS or our external service provider ERS or our external environment in order to allow us to environment in order to allow us to environment in order to allow us to think bigger and so that's really the think bigger and so that's really the think bigger and so that's really the whole point of of coaching or even a whole point of of coaching or even a whole point of of coaching or even a doctor relationship is that I found doctor relationship is that I found doctor relationship is that I found myself doing so much Consulting like myself doing so much Consulting like myself doing so much Consulting like this is what to do and that's not how it this is what to do and that's not how it this is what to do and that's not how it works because every single person is works because every single person is works because every single person is different every single person needs different every single person needs different every single person needs different things every single person different things every single person different things every single person takes information and and breaks it down takes information and and breaks it down takes information and and breaks it down differently and understands it differently and understands it differently and understands it differently so it's really a matter of differently so it's really a matter of differently so it's really a matter of me as a as a service provider as a me as a as a service provider as a me as a as a service provider as a practitioner to ask better questions to practitioner to ask better questions to practitioner to ask better questions to yield more yield more yield more thought-provoking answers for that thought-provoking answers for that thought-provoking answers for that person to get them to think outside of person to get them to think outside of person to get them to think outside of the box and to come up with what is the box and to come up with what is the box and to come up with what is going to be best for them because what I going to be best for them because what I going to be best for them because what I think is best and what I saw be best for think is best and what I saw be best for think is best and what I saw be best for someone else is not necessarily best for someone else is not necessarily best for someone else is not necessarily best for that person and so this is the big that person and so this is the big that person and so this is the big difference between Consulting and difference between Consulting and difference between Consulting and coaching and there are a lot of people coaching and there are a lot of people coaching and there are a lot of people saying that they're coaches but really saying that they're coaches but really saying that they're coaches but really at the end of the day they're at the end of the day they're at the end of the day they're
