Some stories don’t just inspire—they recalibrate what you believe is possible. Today we sit down with Dr. Sue McCready, a pediatrician who turned her hardest season into a blueprint for thriving. After multiple miscarriages, a vivid dream pointed to clotting. Baby aspirin, acupuncture, and a deeper dive into methylation genetics helped her welcome a healthy child—and transformed the way she serves women through midlife and beyond.
We unpack the practical and the profound. Sue shares a mind flip question that can change the trajectory of a hard day—what’s great about this—and the mantra that kept her steady: I’m sculpting my soul. We talk about authenticity as a magnet, how people-pleasing hides our gifts, and why owning quirks can be a bridge to the right partners, clients, and friends. Sue opens her coaching toolkit, from Tony Robbins’ six human needs framework to pattern-spotting that turns stuck loops into fresh choices. If you’ve ever wondered why certainty keeps you small or how growth can become your top priority, this segment will find you where you are.
Then we go deep on hormones. Estrogen is queen, with receptors on nearly every cell, which is why perimenopause can feel like a symphony of symptoms—brain fog, eczema, migraines, mood swings, sleep shifts. We discuss testing, lifestyle foundations, and how to think about hormone therapy with nuance rather than fear. Sue also introduces her Midlife Personality Quiz—visionary, inspirational, giver, and detail mamas—so you can lean into strengths and guard against common traps like perfectionism or burnout. We close with a compass that never fails: what would love do, whether love means setting a boundary or taking courageous action.
