Am I Burned Out or Am I Done?

Am I Burned Out or Am I Done? A Physician's Self-Assessment Workbook for Finally Getting Honest About Whether to Stay, Pivot, or Leave

You already know something isn't working.

Maybe you're still showing up — still competent, still functional — but something underneath has quietly gone missing. Maybe you've started asking questions you're not sure you're allowed to ask. Questions like: Is this it? Is this really what I worked this hard for?

This workbook is for you.

Am I Burned Out or Am I Done? is a 34-page self-assessment workbook designed specifically for physicians who know something needs to change — and are ready to find out what.

It is not a clinical burnout scale. It is not a checklist. It will not give you a score to share with your HR department.

What it will do — if you're willing to be honest with it — is help you see yourself clearly.

Inside you'll find 6 sections and 120 questions covering:

• Where you actually are right now — physically, emotionally, and professionally
• When burnout started and how it took hold
• Who you were before medicine consumed everything
• What you actually want — not what you're supposed to want
• What's really stopping you from making a change
• What one thing you could do this week to start moving forward

Each section includes guided reflection prompts and writing space designed for honest, private self-examination.

This workbook was created by Allison Abitz, MD — a physician, former practicing architect, and founder of The Physician Foundry. She left anesthesiology residency right when she was about to finish, left a marriage that was taking more than it was giving, and rebuilt her life more than once. She knows what burnout feels like from the inside — and she knows what's on the other side of it.

This workbook is the first step. For physicians ready to go deeper — one on one coaching is available at The Physician Foundry.
