MENGENAI EPISOD INI
In this episode of Code Calm, Dr. Melanie Gray sits down with Basia Perez, a healthcare advisor specializing in burnout, workplace culture, and leadership, to explore why self-care alone isn't solving systemic healthcare exhaustion. Basia shares her career journey from a teenage job at McDonald's to healthcare management, revealing how advocating for workers who feel unheard pushed her to build her own business.
The conversation dives deep into the power of setting boundaries, reading the room as a leader, and overcoming internal battles like people-pleasing and digital distractions. Listeners will come away with practical, human-centered strategies to communicate concerns, protect patient safety, and shift from constant reaction to intentional reflection.
