Doctors are stretched on all sides in demanding roles, often with a busy family to take care of as well.

You know you need to take care of yourself - but there’s never enough time for you.

The situation in healthcare right now feels increasingly precarious, with more and more balls now required for you to juggle (and to worry about dropping!)

You see your colleagues struggling through the new ways of working, some nearing burnout - and you may be just one crisis away from not coping yourself. 

You know things need to change, but you're not sure what to do and, even if you did, you’ve got no time to think it through or make the changes needed!

We get it. We know what it's like to worry about your own mental health, that you might make a mistake, and about the effect it's having on your family life.

It's time for this to stop. 

You're working through some of the most challenging times for doctors there have ever been. Workload has spiralled and anyone in the same situation would feel the same. You are doing the best you can with the resources you have, trying to stay productive, up-to-date and mentally fit. It's difficult to know which of the resources out there will be useful or relevant to you and your life. You might also feel frustrated that a lot of the CPD you are required to do is boring and unhelpful - you're not alone, it is!

But if nothing changes, then you may end up burning out and leaving your job - a job that you used to love! 

So let us help you feel calmer at work, with the tools and resources you need to help you thrive, and fall in love with your career again. 


Events have conspired to make 2020 and 2021 the most challenging times for doctors EVER. Workload has spiralled and anyone in the same situation would feel the same.

Medicine is a tough job but we make it twice as hard by neglecting to care for the wellbeing of doctors.

Dr. Rachel Morris is a GP turned Executive Coach and Trainer and host of the popular You are Not a Frog podcast - a podcast for professionals in high-stress jobs who want to make small changes that will make a big difference. 

Rachel knows what it’s like to feel overwhelmed and one crisis away from not coping. She believes that you don’t need to dramatically change careers to thrive in your 9-5 (or 8-8) but there are simple things you can do and changes you can make that will make a HUGE amount of difference.

As founder of Wild Monday and creator of the Shapes Toolkit Rachel now specialises in resilience in the workplace for doctors and professionals in high-stress jobs. She runs training all over the country (and online) helping people to make the most of their one wild and precious life (thank you Mary Oliver!). Previously, she was Director of Leadership Courses for Red Whale and a tutor for the University of Cambridge Post Graduate Certificate in Medical Education. She knows how to give good CPD!

Dr. Caroline Walker, is Founder of The Joyful Doctor, an NHS-based psychiatrist and a specialist in the mental health and wellbeing of doctors. She is an inspirational speaker, trainer and coach who is passionate about reducing stigma for doctors struggling with their mental health and wellbeing.

Caroline has first hand experience of how the pressures of working in medicine can impact on your life through burnout, bipolar disorder and addiction. She got tired of seeing her colleagues succumbing to the constant pressures of work - leading many to become disillusioned, depressed and in some cases even suicidal - and she had to do something!

For over 10 years Caroline has helped overworked and underappreciated doctors who struggle with their mental health or career choices to stop ‘just existing’ and instead embrace life and take steps towards a happier, healthier, more fulfilled life and career. The organisations she has worked with help their doctors to embrace their inherent strengths, take better care of themselves and each other, and to feel more energised and optimistic about their work and their future careers.

Caroline founded The Joyful Doctor to support even more doctors to get the help they need, without fear of judgement of negative consequences.

I WANT IN!

I've learned lots of tips and ideas for small changes, some of which I've been able to put into practice in real life. Knowing and seeing there are others who feel the same, and getting ideas from what's helping them via the Facebook posts. Signposting to various resources both from the Permission to Thrive team and other members (I've enjoyed some useful audiobooks and podcasts that have been recommended!). And all of the above actually did allow me to finally give myself permission to do things I hadn't been doing e.g. leaving my desk to take breaks at work. Thank you, Permission to Thrive!

What other people are saying

"I really loved the well-being session. Curiously, I've been quite stressed and overworked lately and was almost overwhelmed by negative emotions by the time the session started. I wasn't expecting it to be so helpful for me, yet it became very topical and gave some very useful tools to cope with stress. Thanks!"

I love the tools given to help ground yourself during times of stress and ideas to think about what brings joy.

The webinar was really thought provoking and has given me lots of ideas about how I can look at things differently not just at work but also in my relationships at home.

Good thoughtful discussion stimulated, which challenged my ideas and helped me approach situations in a new way.

Frequently Asked Questions

"Would HIGHLY recommend! Feel so much more in control of my day than I did 3 hours ago, and feel there are things in my power to change that I hadn't really realised."

I really appreciated the compassion shown in the session.

I love the different techniques I can now use in the workplace to reset and calm.

I believe it is essential to encourage doctors to take care of themselves.
