In this classic episode from 2020, I revisit my conversation with Dr. Jessie Benson, who transformed from a high-achieving anesthesiologist and critical care specialist to a multifaceted creator pursuing life coaching, art, music, and homesteading.

After nearly a decade in medicine, Dr. Benson realized she was caught in an endless cycle of chasing approval and achievement—from being first in her medical school class to earning "best fellow" honors at Cleveland Clinic. She shares her four-year journey to break free from perfectionism and fear of rejection, which began with exploring creative pursuits while still practicing and culminated in paying off $250,000 in medical school debt before giving six months' notice to her practice.

Dr. Benson discusses her post-medicine path, including becoming a professional artist with a unique beeswax technique, learning to play cello, embarking on an eight-month RV journey across America, and eventually settling in Floyd, Virginia to pursue homesteading. She also explains how her coaching practice evolved from project management to helping clients overcome "barrier beliefs," culminating in her "Brave is Beautiful Circle" program designed specifically for women physicians seeking authenticity and creativity.
