Description
Doctor Nobody is a reflective, purpose-driven podcast from mid-career medical professionals who feel the weight of burnout and the longing for something more. Hosted anonymously by a physician known only as Doctor Nobody, each 15 to 20 minute episode explores questions of identity, wellness, and meaning through personal stories, practical tools, and quiet moments of insight. With short form episodes sprinkled in to provoke thought, this podcast is both a sanctuary and a master class — a place to rediscover the reason you started healing others in the first place.
