Dr. Zarya Rubin, MD - Physician & Burnout Expert
  • 5.0 (24)
  • Mental Health
  • Updated Weekly

You're smart, driven, and accomplished — but you're exhausted. Not the kind of tired that a good night's sleep fixes. The kind that makes you wonder how much longer you can keep going at this pace, and whether the life you've built is actually the life you want. Welcome to Outsmart Burnout. I'm your host, Dr. Zarya Rubin — a Harvard-educated physician, TEDx speaker, burnout expert, and recovering overachiever — this show is for high-achieving women who are done white-knuckling their way through life and ready to reclaim their passion, purpose, and joy. As a physician who burned out in medicine and found my way back to personal and professional success, I don't just study burnout - I've lived it. Each week, I invite expert guests to dive into the real conversations high-achieving women need most: the science of burnout and nervous system regulation, the identity shifts that midlife brings, the systems and patterns keeping you stuck, and the practical strategies to help you feel like yourself again. Remember, burnout is not your destiny, it's your wake-up call.

    Shedding the Armor: Burnout, Belonging and Being a Woman Surgeon with Dr. Erin Sheffield

    What does it actually cost to survive in a system that wasn't built for you? Dr. Erin Sheffield is a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, founder of The Doctor Is ALL In retreat, and co-host of The Resting Stitch Face Podcast — and she's spent her career in one of the most male-dominated surgical specialties in medicine. In this conversation, she and Dr. Zarya go deep on the kind of burnout that doesn't come from working too hard. It comes from shrinking yourself to fit. From her origin story — marine biology student turned oral surgeon after a nudge from her twin sister — to fighting a wrongful termination lawsuit after taking maternity leave, Erin's path has been anything but linear. What she's built on the other side is a community, a retreat, and a mission to give women in surgery what she never had: a space to exhale. In this episode, you'll hear about: The microaggressions that add up — and how they quietly drain high-achieving womenWhat burnout actually feels like in the OR (compassion fatigue)Being illegally fired after taking maternity leave — and what happened nextThe HR complaint that got filed against her for 'hostile work environment' — and why it would never have happened to her husbandWhy women surgeons need permission to rest — and what it looks like when they finally give it to themselvesHow The Doctor Is ALL In was born from feeling completely alone at her first major conferenceThe armor metaphor: what happens when we carry our protective shields long past when we needed themThe pants incident. (You'll know it when you get there!!!!!)Dr. Sheffield's closing message is one that every high-achieving woman needs to hear: you're doing better than you think you are. You don't have to carry it all. And you don't have to do it alone. Trust me, this is one you don't want to miss!

    You're Not A Fraud, But Your Brain Thinks You Are - How Impostor Syndrome Contributes to Burnout, with Dr. Amanda Tobe

    Have you ever worked yourself to the bone to prove you deserve to be there — and ended up more exhausted than ever? That's probably impostor syndrome fueling burnout, and it's one of the most common — and most overlooked — patterns Dr. Amanda Tobe sees in her psychology practice every day. Dr. Amanda Tobe is a Toronto-based organizational psychologist, researcher, and founder of Amanda Tobe and Associates, a group psychology practice specializing in career-focused psychological services. She works with high-achieving professionals, leaders, and entrepreneurs on the internal barriers that quietly drain them: impostor syndrome, performance anxiety, perfectionism, people-pleasing, and burnout. Before founding her practice, she spent five years in corporate talent management — and it was her own experience of burnout and an unfulfilling career that set her on the path to do this work. In this episode, Dr. Zarya and Dr. Tobe go deep on the psychology of self-doubt and why the most ambitious, capable women are often the most vulnerable. In This Episode, You'll Learn: Why impostor syndrome is a phenomenon — not a disorder — and why that distinction changes how you work with itThe direct link between impostor syndrome and burnout: how overcompensating for self-doubt leads to overworking, exhaustion, and running on emptyWhat a 'performance-based identity' is and why high achievers are most at risk ('I am what I do' vs. 'I did poorly at that')The three most common fears Dr. Tobe sees in her practice — fear of failure, fear of judgment, and fear of stillness — and what they're really aboutHow the inner critic operates: what it's trying to protect you from and how to start unhooking from the stories it tellsWhy the goal isn't to eliminate fear — it's to 'fear less, not be fearless'What career therapy actually looks like: values, deal-breakers, fantasies about leaving, and rebuilding a career that gives you energy instead of taking itWhy you don't have to blow up your life to fix it — and how to make meaningful changes from inside your current roleThe role meditation, stillness, and nervous system regulation play in doing this work (and why so many high achievers resist it)Timestamps: 00:00 — Introduction: Who is Dr. Amanda Tobe?01:00 — Dr. Tobe's personal experience with burnout and career change02:30 — From corporate HR to founding a career therapy practice05:45 — Ikigai, values, and the career you actually want08:30 — Who seeks career therapy?
