Here is our episode recap!

Dr. Dawn Baker is an anesthesiologist, life coach, blogger and rock climber. A prolonged work-up diagnosed her with a brain tumor during her residency training.

After a long diagnostic journey and surgery for the tumor, she took a hard look at life – which led to her starting her blog and coaching career.

She now works only when she wants to and helps people through coaching to achieve a balanced life. She can be found at PracticeBalance.

Hear everything that she has to share with us about doctors attaining balance!
