I balance 2 full time jobs – as a full-time physician and full-time mom/wife/daughter/you-name-it.

Can you relate?

But human capacity is finite.

As a young mom, when I was a full-time anesthesiologist, I constantly juggled stress and sacrifice.

I slept less, ate not so great, convenient food, and rarely took the time to decompress.

I was so accustomed to chronic stress and chaos that it felt normal.

Until it caught up with me years later, and I recognized the physical signs and symptoms of a problem.

I understood it was time to pivot and turn things upside down a bit.

Now, when any of those physical symptoms of stress return, it is so obvious!

I found my new normal. And so can you.

What is the solution? Take a listen.
