Episode 037: In today's episode I'm sharing 3 truths about why women in medicine are chronically overwhelmed and burned out--and it's not what you think!  After speaking with lots of women over the past year and a half, I noticed some patterns.  I wanted to use my training as a certified life coach and certified feminine embodiment coach to approach the problem of burnout in a totally different way.

Episode 036: If you're having trouble achieving a goal, it's probably NOT because you're lacking information.  More likely than not, the issue is you're not implementing the information that you likely already have access to.  Acquiring more information does not equal transformation.  Only implementation can do that.  What's the difference in the level of success between two people who have access to the same information?  How the information is utilized and acted upon.  Period.

Episode 035: Today's episode is a short, sweet, "motivational Monday" type of episode.  If you're ever felt broken or like there's something wrong with you, I just want you to know those are thought errors.  There's always a GOOD reason for everything you do--even if it doesn't make sense to you now...The actions you take (or don't take) are rooted in your physiology (i.e. autonomic survival processes) and your social conditioning. Before you can create effective and lasting change, you have to accept the person you are today from a place of grace and compassion--not disgust and shame  If you choose to work with a coach or other professional, it's important to work with someone who sees you are empowered, healthy and whole, not someone who needs to be "fixed" by someone outside of you..

Episode 034: Is Work-Life Balance a Myth? Some people think so...Even the phrase suggests there is this optimal fixed, 50-50 ratio between your work life and your personal life that we should strive for.  But is that even possible--or appropriate?

In today's episode, we'll explore:

Also this Wednesday, Aug 10 at 8 pm ET, I'm doing a live training on how women in medicine can achieve Work-Flow Balance™.  You'll learn the top 5 reasons women in medicine are burning out at an alarming rate, how your social conditioning plays a HUGE role in this and how to release these old patterns to create more balance in your life.  You’ll get free CME for attending so you don’t want to miss it!  Click HERE to register for the training.  I hope to see you there! 

Episode 033: In this episode, I'm sharing my philosophy about transformational coaching and why it's important to address both the mind and the body.  Typically women who are raised in a Western culture are disconnected from their bodies and take on a more analytical approach to problem-solving.  And while you can create incredible results from simply understanding your thought patterns and beliefs, there are often deeper roots traveling from the brain into the body that have to be unraveled.  This is where the embodiment or somatic work comes in.  You learn to experience and tolerate feelings and sensations in your body in a safe and gentle way.  Over time, this allows you to peel back all the layers that you've built up over the years, release energetic blocks, and ultimately get unstuck. 

The integration of mind-body work is essential for thriving in life (instead of merely surviving).  On August 10, I'll be doing a free live training on the concept of internal integration to eliminate burnout for good.  Click HERE to sign up for the training and also get free CME for attending!

Episode 032:  Today we're taking a deep dive into procrastination.  It's something that many people struggle with and often there's a feeling of shame that goes along with it.  If you identify as a procrastinator, perhaps you were labeled as lazy, a slacker, or unmotivated in the past.  The truth is, that's not the real reason you procrastinate.  

In this episode, we'll explore:

I've identified 6 reasons that people commonly procrastinate and developed a process to shift it in real time.  This week I'm offering 1:1 Overcome Procrastination sessions to help you identify the main reason so you can release it and move forward.  During the session, we'll focus on one task that you're struggling to complete.  We'll figure out how the situation is triggering your nervous system so you can create more internal safety and create an action plan.  There are limited slots available so click HERE to schedule yours today.

Episode 031: This week, we're chatting about the power of constraining when it comes to time management.  As women, we've been conditioned to think we have to do #allthethings because we've been taught that our value comes from how productive we are.  So if we're not taking "massive action" in our career or in our lives in general, we feel guilty or even ashamed for not doing enough.  This line of thinking keeps so many women in medicine burned out and feeling perpetually overwhelmed.

Episode 29: Burnout can have such a profound impact on your system that it can trigger your survival instincts (also known as trauma responses or stress responses).  Your nervous system developed these coping mechanisms to help you deal with a real or perceived threat so you can get to a place of safety.  Although the trauma responses--fight, flight, freeze and fawn--may be necessary and healthy at times, these responses may also show up as a maladaptive strategy in times of stress and create more problems long-term.

In this episode, you'll learn:

Episode 028: Everything in nature has seasons--including you.  But the way we work and think about productivity isn't consistent with our nature.

I love this quote from Kate Northrup's book Do Less: "The way we work in our culture is as though we're in a perpetual harvest.  But anyone who's grown anything in the earth knows that this is impossible." Expecting the same level of energy, intensity and output from month to month, week to week, or day to day is unrealistic and harmful--and yet we do it anyway because that's what we have been taught.
