Hey Doc—

This summer I'm re-releasing some of my favorite conversations from podcasts where I was the guest because the topics are just as relevant today as they were when we recorded them.

In this first part of my conversation on the Girl Doc Survival Guide podcast, we talk about why so many physician moms find themselves exhausted, questioning everything, and wondering why success doesn't feel the way they thought it would.

I share parts of my own journey, but this conversation is really about something much bigger: the culture of medicine, the expectations placed on mothers, and why so many of us have been taught that self-sacrifice is simply part of the job.

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" but still wondering why it feels so hard, I think you'll see yourself in this conversation.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Why physician moms are especially vulnerable to burnout and overwhelm
• How motherhood can completely change your relationship with medicine
• Why I left employed OB/GYN practice and what that decision taught me
• The mindset shifts that helped me stop accepting self-sacrifice as the cost of success
• Why building a life that fits you matters more than living up to everyone else's expectations

This is an honest conversation about what happens when you start questioning the rules you've been taught and begin creating a version of medicine and motherhood that actually works for you.

🎧 Listen now, and then join me for Part 2, where we get practical about the tools and strategies that help physician moms thrive without complete self-sacrifice.
