Synopsis

In this episode, Lara talks with Dr. Jimmy Turner, MD of the Physician Philosopher and his wife Kristen Turner. They share about their marriage, family, entrepreneur life, and the benefits of life coaching. Dr. Jimmy Turner is a life coach for physicians and helps them recover from burnout. "And I think he was driven more towards, 'Ok I'm burnt out. I'm having a hard time. Maybe I should work towards retiring early.' And while that's probably still a goal, it's shifted a little in a more healthy perspective as he's learned through coaching and all these things how to take a step back and shift your perspective. He still loves practicing medicine....The goal doesn't have to be to get out of that. It's not like he's coaching people out of that. But that's the shift that I've seen that as you learn to deal with things and that other people struggle with it. The goal doesn't have to be to get out of it, it's really how to help other people deal with it." -Kristen Turner
