Hey folks, Scott Weingard here and this is an M-Crit-Wee. Today on the we, a slight change of pace.

We're not going to talk about a clinical topic. We're going to talk about compassion. Don't turn off the podcast.

This is directly relevant to your practice. It's totally implementable on your next shift.

It's going to make your patients care better.

It's going to make your perceptions of your shifts better.

It's something you really want to listen to.

What had happened is one of the participants in the Unburnable cohort for Faye recommended a book called Capassionomics.

Now, I guess I'd be remiss if I didn't take a second to mention Unburnable.

Unburnable is the anti-burnout course I do with my coaching partner, Rob Orman. This will be the fifth iteration

of it. We're about to start up again in September. The course is extraordinary, and I say that,

not based on my own biased opinion, but based on the participants that have gone through it.

Many of who have come in just miserable in their jobs, in the emergency department, the critical care units, and they've gone out with an entire different vantage, an entire different vision of how they want to continue practicing medicine.

And we've had numerous testimonials saying we were about to quit, and after this course, we are reinvigorated.

We want to get back into the hospital and enjoy our clinical time there, taking care of patients.

So if that sounds intriguing, if you're in the midst of burnout, or you just want to stave off

it ever occurring in your clinical practice, then come to the course. Unburnablecourse.com, all one word. Unburnable course, all one word.com, or just go to emcourt.org slash stuff. So as I was mentioning, she mentioned this book, Compassionomics. I'm like, all right, you recommend a book. I'll go check it out. And then I saw the author, the lead author, Steve Treziac, was a colleague who had worked on with numerous

sepsis initiatives. He was the clinician's clinician amongst the research community.

And wow, he must have had a change of pace here. And you'll hear why Steve started researching

compassion. But the book was fantastic.

Just a wonderful read, well referenced.

I mean, every single point backed up by research.

And you'll hear about that today.
