Hey doc! In this episode, I'm challenging the notion of 'maternal instinct.' I dive into:

Why most of what we consider 'instinct' is actually learned behavior
How socialization shapes our parenting skills
The pressure this myth puts on both moms and dads
Why recognizing this can lead to more compassionate parenting

Key takeaways:

True instincts are about survival, not diaper changes
Most parenting skills are learned, not innate
Recognizing this can relieve pressure and guilt
We need to educate all genders equally about childcare

Remember, doc, not feeling an instant connection or knowing everything doesn't make you a bad parent. Let's reframe our expectations and give ourselves (and our partners) some grace!

Why You're Not Actually the CEO of Your Household (And How to Become One) 8:18

7 days ago8:18

8:18

Text me to ask a question, leave a comment or just say hello! Hey doc! In this episode of ✨Stethoscopes and Strollers✨, I’m challenging the popular narrative of Physician moms as “household CEOs.” Because let’s be honest—most of us are actually functioning like overworked managers, not empowered leaders. And today, we’re going to break that all the way down. I dive into: Why most Physician moms are functioning as managers, not CEOs What real CEOs like Jeff Bezos actually do with their time (hint: it’s not cooking meals or doing pickups) The critical difference between true delegation and “wishful thinking” delegation How operating like a true CEO creates space for what actually matters Key takeaways: CEOs delegate effectively and operate at the top of their license True delegation includes training, feedback, and letting go When you’re doing other people’s jobs, burnout follows The highest use of your time is connecting with your family and excelling in your career—not managing details This is a must-listen for any Physician mom who’s juggling clinical responsibilities, parenting, partnerships, and everything in between. If you're ready to stop spinning your wheels and start building a life that reflects your worth, this conversation is your permission slip. It’s time for a promotion, doc. Let’s transform you from an overworked manager to the visionary CEO of your life.

Not a down payment, not a luxury vacation, not private school tuition. I invested this amount in my own growth, and I'm sharing why I consider it the best financial decision I made last year.

Text me to ask a question, leave a comment or just say hello! Hey doc, Today I'm sharing a deeply personal story about my journey discovering the transformative power of finding the right community. I open up about my experience in two very different coaching programs and what they taught me about trusting my intuition. I'll walk you through: Why community often matters more than the actual coaching How being in the right group setting creates growth through osmosis The importance of psychological safety when building deep connections What happens when you trust vs ignore your inner knowing The value of seeing others both ahead of and behind you on similar journeys This episode goes far beyond just announcing my new group coaching program (though yes, The Connected Motherhood Experience is officially launching!). It's about the profound impact of finding spaces where you can show up fully as yourself - where you're truly seen, validated and pushed to grow. I share the hard lessons I learned about trusting myself and choosing carefully where I invest my energy and vulnerability. Most importantly, I discuss why having people around you who genuinely understand your experience as a Physician mom is invaluable for your growth. If you've ever felt unsure about which communities are right for you, or questioned whether you should trust your gut about a space not feeling quite right, this episode is for you. The Connected Motherhood Experience is more than just another coaching program - it's a sanctuary where Black Physician moms can find true sisterhood, cultivate lasting peace, and create the lives they deserve.
