MGMA Insights: Britt Frank on the Science of Stuck

Download MP3
Britt Frank joins the MGMA Insights Podcast to discuss why we get stuck, how our brains create decision paralysis, and small steps to break free. She shares practical strategies to reduce burnout, overthinking, and mental roadblocks—especially relevant for medical practice leaders. Britt will be a keynote speaker at the MGMA Operations Conference in Las Vegas (March 2-4, 2025), where she will dive deeper into overcoming workplace stress and decision fatigue.

Key Takeaways:
  • Why We Get Stuck – The gap between knowing what to do and taking action.
  • Overthinking & Decision Paralysis – More choices can create more stress, not clarity.
  • The Power of Micro Yeses – Small actions build momentum and shift the brain into action.
  • Motivation is Overrated – Taking action first creates motivation, not the other way around.
  • Breaking Mental Loops – Shift from “Why am I stuck?” to “What’s my next small step?”
  • The Need for Digital Breaks – Reduce device overload and reset focus with screen-free time.
