    Episode 365: How Can Dental Assistants Prevent Burnout in 2025?
    Jan 6 2025
    Do you ever feel like your busy schedule leaves no room for self-care? Today, we tackle burnout and the importance of taking breaks—even in the middle of a hectic workday. In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Laura Schwindt and Dr. Karen Tindall, life coaches and former dental professionals. They share valuable insights on recognizing burnout, why breaks are essential for peak performance, and how open communication with your team can create a more harmonious and productive workplace. Discover the concept of oscillation—balancing high-intensity work with moments of rest—and how it can revolutionize your day. Learn actionable strategies, like advocating for mini-breaks, addressing hydration concerns, and finding mindfulness in small moments to maintain focus and energy. Key Takeaways: 1. Prioritize Breaks: Recharge to ensure you’re performing at your best throughout the day. 2. Advocate for Communication: Foster team collaboration to manage schedules and workloads effectively. 3. Oscillation for Energy: Incorporate brief moments of rest and mindfulness to enhance focus and productivity. 4. Self-Care Benefits: Ensure you’re not just a better professional but also your best self for loved ones at home. Let’s make 2025 the year you thrive, not just survive.
