The year you stop forcing and start aligning. In today’s episode of The Business of Happiness, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy speaks to high-achieving women in dentistry and healthcare who are successful, capable, and quietly exhausted. This episode cuts through the belief that more effort leads to fulfillment. She challenges busyness, comparison, and constant responsibility, and points toward a simpler, more grounded way to feel clear and connected again without leaving the career you built.

This is not about doing more or becoming someone new. It is about seeing yourself clearly and letting your work support your life. Listen closely. Let this be the moment you stop pushing and choose alignment instead.
