You Are Not Meant to be AloneÂ
Ladies, I’m going to be real with you - making friends has never been difficult for me (if you haven’t noticed, I’m a bit of an extrovert). I look forward to a good networking event, but I realize that is not the case for many of you. Â

It’s been two nights since the last time I was awake in my house. Â
My partner comes into my operating room at the end of my 24-hour shift. I do a 5-minute change and rush home, switching into mom mode. I call on the way and put out sibling fires, rallying the sleepy preteens over the phone. Â

Ladies, let’s be real: balancing work, personal commitments, family, and self-care feels like an art form, doesn’t it? We have been told that it is possible to “do it all,” but juggling all those roles without losing ourselves in the process? Now THAT is the real challenge. Â

We find ...
Time is one of our most valuable resources, and it often feels like there's never enough. For women physicians, working moms, and busy women in general, the pressure to balance professional responsibilities with personal commitments is overwhelming! For me, each day is a delicate dance of managing p...
If you are like me, you are likely swamped with deadlines, and commitments, and glued to screens around the clock. It has become so sad how feeling overwhelmed, stressed, and totally out of touch with our true selves is almost the new normal. I can relate to this reality, and I bet you can too. With...
