The Calm Doctor Challenge
5 Day Stress Reset for Doctors
1-5th September
In 5 days, you’ll learn how to create more calm, balance, and energy in your working life — with quick, practical tools you can start using straight away.
You look after everyone else. Who’s looking after you?
As a doctor, you’re trained to cope with pressure, but the reality is:
Long hours, endless demands, and emotional exhaustion leave you running on empty.
Boundaries blur, self-care slips, and “switching off” feels impossible.
Burnout creeps in quietly — until it feels like you’re surviving, not living.
It doesn’t have to stay that way.
In Just 5 Days, You’ll Learn How To:
✅ Take stock of your work-life balance and spot what’s draining you
✅ Reclaim your energy with quick, practical shifts
✅ Set guilt-free boundaries that protect your time and wellbeing
✅ Use 2-minute mindfulness resets to find calm in the middle of chaos
✅ Create your own Sustainable Self Roadmap for the next 30 days
You get a short video and task emailed to you each morning, and there is a live 30 minute coaching and Q+A session over Google Meet at 7pm each evening.
This challenge is led by Emma Leivesley, a wellbeing and burnout coach who specialises in supporting healthcare professionals.
Emma is the author of the best-selling book The Sustainable Doctor Framework and has worked with doctors and other healthcare professionals across the UK to help them prevent burnout, set boundaries, and rediscover balance in their lives.
With a background in mental health, education, and psychology, Emma combines evidence-based strategies with a compassionate, no-nonsense approach. Her mission is simple: to help doctors move from surviving to thriving without guilt, judgement or blame.
