So when it comes to diabetes, what does burnout or diabetes distress look like in the day-to-day life of someone living with diabetes?
4:22
The World Health Organization has actually defined burnout because a little bit pre, definitely post COVID, burnout was the buzzword.
4:34
And it was affecting health care professionals.
4:37
And that was where the approach first came with World Health Organization.
4:41
And then now to clients, people who are living with chronic conditions.
4:45
So here was their definition.
4:47
Burnout is physical and psychological weariness.
9:41
And instead of asking, why isn't this person following the plan? We can begin asking, what's making this so difficult right now? So Tracy, when you think about the underlying factors that contribute to burnout or diabetes distress, what are some of the things that we need to pay closer attention to? And what might we miss when we just focus on A1c, time and range, weight, or other outcomes.

And, um, oh my goodness, those little fur babies are just absolutely precious.

We have a love for dogs, and we took that love for dogs, we went all over, before we ever started, um, Bougie Barkers, we built it from the ground up with a dog in mind.
4:57
So we went and we took everything we found from different facilities that we loved and combined them into our facility when we built it.
5:08
So one thing I love is we are a social, uh, sleeping.
5:14
So we don't put dogs in kennels.
