Medical Residency: Maintaining Work-Life Balance

When I started my medical residency, I quickly realized that balancing work and life felt like juggling flaming torches while riding a unicycle. The long hours, constant learning curve, and emotional toll of patient care left little room for anything else. If you’re in residency right now, you probably know exactly what I mean. But over time, I discovered that while residency is demanding, it doesn’t have to consume your entire existence. You can maintain a work-life balance—you just have to be intentional about it.
