840. Lean Into Discomfort

Dr. Killeen offers a perspective to help reframe tough or demanding days in the practice. While comfort is everywhere in modern life, real growth tends to show up in moments that feel a little difficult or unfamiliar. Improvement often comes with discomfort. Whether it is learning a new system, having better patient conversations, or giving and receiving feedback, those moments of effort are usually signs that progress is happening. Reframe discomfort as part of the process. When something feels challenging, it may be a sign that you and your team are moving in the right direction.
