Nothing is insurmountable.”

Such wisdom from Dr Courtney Courtney Barrows McKeown.🔥

I had the honor to have a podcast conversation and she shares her story of struggling with life-long perfectionism as a high achiever, anxiety, and ultimately addiction and suicidal ideation, followed by her recovery and how she overcome several barriers to get her life and career back on track.

Courtney celebrated three years of sobriety earlier this year. Her mission is to provide hope and mentorship to other early career physicians who may be struggling with similar issues she faced, and help drive systemic changes in order to make our professional climate better for the next generation of surgeons.❤️

Thanks for sharing this real and inspiring story. So many will benefit from your courage.❤️‍🩹

Incredible loop hike… full of challenging climbs, gorgeous lakes and wildflower meadows! Highly recommend!🏔️❤️🌲☀️

I love this image (created by my friend Carrie Hollland MD) that shows this so clearly how a small change in your life can make a huge impact on your future.

And yet for your high achieving brain it seems TOO SIMPLE, so you keep on trying to change all the things.

You try hard to “fix” everything.
It’s exhausting.
And when it doesn’t work you berate yourself to try harder.
Sound familiar?

There really is a simpler way.
But it feels really weird to those of us always aiming for the gold star.

Listen in to this week’s Re-Mind Yourself where I share how small changes really add up to big results.

As a coach for physician women, I wanted to share with you a bit about Stress Rx group coaching.

You will stop feeling overwhelmed, find more guilt-free time for YOU and actually enjoy being present with your family.

This group coaching program is the difference between waiting to enjoy your life when you retire and actually enjoying it now.

After our 12 weeks together you’ll:

•Learn what it actually takes to get your notes done at work so you’re not spending hours each night and each weekend “catching up” (the answer isn’t "more self-discipline" or "caring less")

•Figure out what the hell you actually WANT to do with all the time you create when you no longer bring work home with you (Yes. REALLY.)

•Change your relationship with yourself so you’re able to prioritize your needs and take time for yourself WITHOUT feeling guilty (sleep is NOT optional, my friend!)

•Learn to set boundaries without feeling like a narcissistic A-hole!!!🔥🔥

•Ditch the resentment and frustration in your relationships and start remembering what you liked about your partner in the first place.

•Go from feeling like you’re just surviving to actually having energy and enjoying your life.

You’ll make these changes by learning the simplest and most powerful way to gain back control in your life…through your mindset.

These aren’t airy-fairy, nice-sounding affirmations.

They’re the practical, implementable ‘inner work’ skills they never taught you in medical school. 🧠

And, as you learn and apply them to your life, you’ll feel like you’ve been handed the keys to the universe. 🪄

You don’t need to wait until the broken medical system is fixed, or until you retire, before you actually enjoy the life you’re living right now.❤️
