As women physicians in leadership, we are constantly making decisions. 

Some of them small — what meetings to attend, who to call back first. Some of them enormous — how to allocate scarce resources, how to support a struggling colleague, how to protect time for our own families.

The truth? We make hundreds of decisions a day. And with every decision comes risk: decision fatigue, second-guessing, even burnout.

But here’s the secret most of us were never taught in medical school or leadership training: the antidote to that constant decision pressure isn’t more checklists, more pro-con lists, or more efficiency hacks. It’s values.

Your values are the compass that cuts through the noise.

When you know them, and trust them, decisions get clearer. You stop second guessing yourself and start standing in alignment.

So in today’s episode, we’ll talk about how you can uncover your true values and how to use them as a compass to guide you as both a physician and a leader.

Dr. Stephanie Yamout helps women physician leaders get their time back, own their value, and command the room as they were born to do. For coaching support, apply for Stephanie's Signature Program here and she'll be in touch to invite you to a call.
