The Divine Assignment with Dr. Dwayne | Improve Your Mental Health and Bring Soul to Your Healthcare Role with Dr. Joe Sherman

LISTEN NOW

Is there a disconnect between what you do and the results you want to get? Do you feel like you’re not making the difference you want in the world?

My guest Dr. Joe Sherman has always enjoyed helping out and getting to know other people beyond superficial levels. They were the seeds that put him on the road to becoming a pediatrician.

At some point, though, he realized he was burned out and teetering between who he felt he truly was and the career label he chose. It brought him to the edge of a defining moment.

In this episode of the Words of Love podcast, you’ll learn about Dr. Sherman’s journey advocating greater healthcare access for underserved families and communities, his mental health struggles, and how he discovered what his soul yearned to be. We’ll also discuss the mental health stigma among medical practitioners and why it’s such an important conversation for more of us to have. Click here to keep reading.
