My spinal cord injury taught me a very important life lesson: self-compassion. This is the premise behind her creative business Dr Olivia Lee Ong, The Heart-Centred Doctor.
What happens when a life-altering injury meets the unyielding spirit of a doctor? In this episode of Toni TV, Toni Lontis sits down with Dr. Olivia Ong, a woman whose story is nothing short of remarkable. After suffering a devastating spinal cord injury in 2008, Dr. Ong faced a grueling four-year recovery, learning to walk again with two sticks and a limp. But this isn't just a tale of physical recovery—it's a testament to the power of self-compassion and resilience.
Dr. Ong shares how her experience led her to become a Compassionate Leadership & Resilience Speaker and the founder of The Heart-Centred Doctor. Her mission? To help healthcare professionals avoid burnout and lead balanced, heart-centred lives. She discusses her new book, 'The Heart-Centeredness of Medicine', which aims to guide doctors back to their core values amidst the pressures of modern medicine.
Listeners will gain insights into the challenges healthcare workers face, from burnout to vicarious trauma, and how self-care can be a lifeline. Dr. Ong also touches on exciting advancements in spinal cord injury rehabilitation, offering hope for patients and practitioners alike. This episode is a must-listen for anyone navigating the healthcare system, whether you're a medical professional or someone seeking inspiration from a story of incredible resilience.
