🎙️ In this episode of the UEG Podcast, host Egle Dieninyte speaks with organisational psychologist Lina Sopiene about one of medicine’s most unspoken challenges – burnout.

They explore why many healthcare professionals tie self-worth to performance, how this leads to exhaustion, and what practical steps can help doctors and nurses reconnect with themselves. From learning to “be a human being, not just a human doing” to setting healthy boundaries and managing emotions at work, Lina shares compassionate, practical insights. An honest and relatable conversation for anyone facing the pressures of modern medicine.
