Control
In addition to completing 3 surveys over the course of 6 months, participants in the intervention arm will be asked to wear a wearable device (FitBit Charge 5), complete texting-based ecological momentary assessments to gauge real-time feelings of stress, and receive bi-weekly personalized data dashboards to report back their data.
Participants randomized to this arm will receive digital surveys over the course of 6 months (one at baseline, one at 3 months, and one at 6 months). These surveys will be the same as the intervention arm and will ask questions related to burnout, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and stress.
