What do we do when the strategies which have worked for us in the past are no longer serving us? 

We have gotten so good at overfunctioning, and yet we are feeling burdened, depleted, and resentful of not just our jobs but the fertility journey. We also feel incredibly alone in our struggle.

In today's episode, we discuss the following:

• overfunctioning and how to recognize it
• mindful self compassion
• healing in community
• permission to rest
• trusting ourselves
• navigating uncertainty 
• why we need less grit to live our most authentic lives

Dr. Stepien has spent a decade helping women physicians take back their power. You deserve to take your power back, too.
