What happens when you clean up other people’s messes?

They don’t get to solve the problem (and learn)

They don’t get to experience the consequences (and learn)

You feel exhausted, and internalize that you SHOULD be the one who fixes ALL the problems.

In today’s episode, I’m going to walk through what this can look like, and invite you to think about these challenges differently. You are such a good problem solver. And there are some problems that truly only you can solve. But it’s easy to believe that you are the only path to a solution, and that is not tenable.

I’m also thrilled to announce the start of a new group coaching program, Unbound: Women Physicians Reclaiming their Lives. This group, exclusive to women physicians (MD, DO or MBBS), starts December 1, 2024, and it’s your opportunity to move ideas that we talk about on this podcast into your life. Out of your head, into your life. Together. 

The doors are open now for registration AND, shout out to my friend, the amazing Dr Rachel Rubin, who asked me to add a buddy option. As in, bring along another woman physician and get special savings. Such a great idea!
