Ladies, Don't Forget....!
You can’t pour from an empty cup... Take care of yourself first.
I used to think I couldn't take care of myself and be a good doctor, wife, and mom to my son under 2. Something had to give, and it was always me.
Spoiler: that didn't work. I was short-tempered, foggy-headed, and guilty all the time.
So I started small. Water before coffee. Seven hours of sleep. Three deep breaths before walking in the door.
Nothing earth-shattering. Just consistency.
Now? I show up differently. I'm patient with my son when he melts down. I actually hear my husband at the end of the day. I make clinical decisions without that low-grade panic.
My head is clearer. My peace is real.
And the best part? Taking care of me didn't steal from them. It gave them more of me.
That's the truth from one exhausted, recovering-overachiever to another. 💛
