Burnout in physical therapy isn’t just about workload—it’s about how clinicians process stress over time.

In this episode, Jimmy talks with Charles Inniss about why optimism is not a personality trait, but a trainable skill. They break down how burnout develops in PT careers, why cynicism follows exhaustion, and what clinicians and clinic owners can actually do about it.

If you run a clinic, this matters because burnout directly impacts retention, patient outcomes, and culture. If you’re a clinician, this gives you a practical framework to regain control of your career experience.

What you’ll learn:

• Why PT burnout happens even in “good” jobs

• The difference between exhaustion and cynicism

• How optimism works like a muscle

• Simple daily habits to improve mental resilience

• How clinic culture contributes to burnout (or prevents it)
