Permission to Burn Your Manual is a podcast hosted by Cathi Whaley MD, a physician who recovered from career and life burnout starting with burning her manual--the book that defined her personal expectations of self and how to secure approval, acceptance, love, and connection.
How do we know what we’re capable of if we are only defining ourselves by the manual we create from the evidence of the past?
It’s time for us to just go and be the person we want to be in the most expansive sense both inside and outside of our careers, families, etc. If you are ready, join me and let me be your guide. Let's burn your manual and forge a path to the life you choose.
