198. The Hidden Costs of Altruism with Dr Dimitrios Tsatiris
In this episode, I sit down with psychiatrist and physician-wellness advocate Dr. Dimitrios Tsatiris to unpack why the traits medicine rewards—achievement, perfectionism, and altruism—can quietly fuel suffering. We talk about diminishing returns, moral injury, and the difference between excellence and perfection. We explore practical ways to honor limits, take real vacations, and build cultures of collaboration instead of martyrdom. If you’ve ever felt “too needed to rest,” this conversation is for you.Connect with Dimitrios: Website: https://dimitriostsatiris.com/IG…
