As the year winds down, many healthcare providers find themselves running on empty—physically, mentally, and emotionally. The holidays can disrupt routines, magnify stress, and make it harder to prioritize our own health.

In this end-of-year episode, physical therapists Brigitte Henry, Rebecca Orloski, and host Rebecca Schumer come together as members of the MedStar Health Wellness Committee to share practical, PT-informed strategies for staying healthy through the winter months. From maintaining movement and motivation during busy seasons to recognizing the early signs of the winter blues in ourselves and our colleagues, this conversation stays grounded, realistic, and relatable.

This episode isn’t about doing more—it’s about doing what’s sustainable, supportive, and kind as we close out the year and look ahead.
