I generally start my weekly group coaching call with a quick lesson that’s designed to be LIFE CHANGING. On weeks when you have literally no time at all, this might be the only thing you need to support yourself. These lessons could be ripped from my diary, a theme I saw in my private coaching practice, or something I learned from my very own coach or reading. Eventually, I workshop these informal lessons into a formal public podcast, a workshop, or group training. Client's LOVE these lessons because they create fast-action results AND they are the very first glimpse of a special new tool. Today we go behind the scenes so you too can enjoy one of my favorite lessons shared with my clients. Here’s what you get in today's behind the scenes episode:
✅An understanding of WHY you sometimes feel like you never have enough time, money, or appreciation
✅A connected solution that will TRANSFORM your inner dialogue so you feel better FAST
✅A tiny bit of science on interpersonal neurobiology (my inner nerd LOVES this so much, yours will too!)
✅Additional free resources and recommendations

Here are the things that got me fuming mad when I was practicing Medicine:
a totally unfair work schedule
a surgeon yelling at me about a positive margin
my boss telling me that good moms don’t travel so much (even though I was traveling WITH my kids)
My anger made so much sense.
I don’t like doing MORE than my share of clinical work.
I don’t like ANYONE yelling at me.
I don’t like anyone suggesting that I’m not a good mom.
I wasn’t wrong to be angry.
AND it wasn’t may favorite feeling because it often came with a bad night’s sleep, soothing myself with ice cream, and being extra yelly at home with myself.
No fun.
Here’s why I got tripped up: I made all of this mean there was something wrong with me.
I had a terrible work schedule because I wasn’t as valuable
The surgeon yelled at me because I didn’t carry myself as confidently as my male counterparts
Maybe I wasn’t being a good mom
The problem was that I blamed myself for EVERYTHING.
As soon as we label ourselves as the problem, we feel terrible and we lose all chance at solving the problem.
In this week’s episode you learn a coaching tool that helps you…
Take care of you no matter what
See the real problems (spoiler alert: it’s NEVER you!)
Create REAL solutions
Four case studies to show you how this tool works in real time

In this week’s podcast, we talk about a power sentence that helps switch your brain from panic into resolution: All problems are solvable.
The brain worries, spins, and stresses when it thinks all problems are NOT fixable. It feels terrible. Our logical brain goes offline. We stop sleeping. It’s so hard to problem-solve when we are exhausted.
Next time your brain heads toward spinning out, remind it that all problems are solvable. Your brain will settle. Your logical brain will come on line and start solving problems at the highest level. It feels so good.
All problems are solvable.
In this podcast episode, I walk you through how to believe this power sentence AND I share how I used it to solve a problem in my coaching practice.

This week we talk one of my favorite new tools for decision making. This comes in so handy when your decision seems super complex, hard, and overwhelming.
Client Andrea (name and details are anonymized for privacy) felt stuck in a job she didn’t love AND she also didn’t want to move because she wasn’t sure she’d love that job either AND she was super mad at herself for not deciding either way. In this week’s podcast, I give you the tool set I developed for Andrea. You just might love it, too.
✳️It involves not making Andrea wrong.
✳️Validating all of her concerns are important, valid, and thoughtful.
✳️Looking at the decision that solves the most problems.
✳️Looking at the decision that creates MORE problems.
✳️And considering simplicity for the win
What happened to Andrea? She decided to stay in place at her job and negotiate to make it a better fit. This decision felt like such RELIEF to her. She got EVERYTHING she asked for. She loves her “new” job (it’s the same job but she made it entirely new through negotiations). She stayed in the house and school district she loves. She’s THRILLED with her decision.

The tool I share in this week’s podcast is THE TOOL that made it crystal clear that I was leaving Medicine.
Here’s the thing: decisions are only hard when we tell ourselves that all options are dangerous.
As long as you think all options are dangerous, of course, you’ll feel paralyzed with no good options. Of course. And this will have you stuck in indecision, which is a decision but it’s one that keeps you stuck.
Here’s your tool: make all options safe FIRST.
You’ll be happy either way.
You’ll be successful either way.
You’ll feel fulfilled either way.
If all that’s true, then what do you want to do next?
When you create safety FIRST, you access the wisest part of your mind and intuition to make the best decisions yet.
In the episode you also get two case studies to walk you through how to apply this tool.
One of the case studies is ripped from my diary—you’ll love it!

Today we talk what to do when you have something you WANT to do and also you find yourself NOT doing it.
In the past, Medicine may have taught you to grind it out anyway: “just stop whining and force yourself to do it.”
Your coach may have offered “but you can do hard things!”, “discomfort is the currency of your dreams,” or “just put fear in the backseat and drive.”
And all of this can get AMAZING results. For sure. If these techniques get you the results you want AND you feel great. Keep doing them.
For me, these approaches got results AND FELT TERRIBLE:
Calling myself a whiner made me feel small.
Making myself do things I didn’t want to do felt like I was invisible to me.
I don’t want to expect everything important to be hard and uncomfortable.
I didn’t want to stuff my feelings away.
In this week’s episode you get a WHOLE NEW WAY TO APPROACH LIFE.
It’s three simple steps.
It involves NO hustle. NO grinding. NO being mean to yourself.
You actually might find it brings immediate RELIEF. CALM. Ease.
It’s about what to do when part of you does NOT want to do something.

My brain recently surprised me.
A former colleague asked to interview me about my career pivot from academic medicine to full-time life coaching. He wanted to understand how I made this decision. He was concerned some people would harshly judge my decision.
The idea of someone judging my decision lit my brain up FOR DAYS. I might have even lost sleep in a heated argument in my head at 3AM.
AND I thought I was over all of this by now.
In today’s podcast episode, I walk you through HOW to work through someone else’s judgment.
When you have this tool, you'll have new ways to deal with all this...
✅When boss says you don’t see enough patients
✅When Chair says you haven’t written enough papers
✅When mother-in-law says you don’t help out enough around the house
✅When partner says the dress is a little too tight (ok, this one might not ever be neutral!)

{FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER, I share with you a clip from the private podcast!...}
I shouldn’t be frustrated with my kids! Good moms are always wanting to play with their kids.
Sound familiar? I’ve said this to myself many times! And it never feels good. Here’s the thing: Normal human brains have lots of judgments. It’s not a problem UNLESS we make ourselves wrong for making a judgment. When we don’t make ourselves wrong for judging, we can use the judgments as data points to create the very best life. Here’s what you get in this week’s podcast:
✅A whole new relationship with judgments (you aren’t bad, you ARE human!)
✅Judgments reveal your wants, likes, and preferences (they are SO useful!)
✅How to turn your judgments into a TREASURE MAP for your most amazing life
✅A page ripped from my dairy of how I almost let my judgement of my coach keep me from something I really wanted; AND how I turned my judgement into the best outcome ever
Click the button to make your judgment your treasure map.

In this week’s podcast you learn how to intentionally constrain your available time to produce the highest quality work in a fraction of the time. It’s all about understanding what I call the “time-brain expansion.” It looks like this: if we give ourselves 6mo to do a project, we’ll take every bit of 6mo to get it done. If we give ourselves 3mo to do the same project, they’ll take every bit of 3mo. Our brain expands into whatever time we give it. The solution is SIMPLE. Here’s what you get in this week’s podcast:
✅My writing hacks that helped me HALVE the time of writing books, even when I was covering more complex material. Use this recipe for ANY project
✅The secret sauce behind THIS podcast production
✅The secret sauce behind THIS podcast production

Brains love to offer “but this is my only chance.” “There will never be anything better.” “This is once in a lifetime.”

Don’t let this happen.

Indecision is exhausting.
It presents as 1) a very busy mind that’s never still, 2) lots of confusion, 3) poor sleep, 4) overeating, overNetflixing, over-scrolling, and 5) emotional reactivity.
Most physicians solve for indecision by working harder, researching more, consuming more books, talking it through to all the people, sleeping on it, taking a class, “giving it more time,” and overthinking again.
The answer to indecision is NOT more work, information, or time.
The answer is to DECIDE.
In last week’s episode we discussed a 5-step process to get to ZERO decision drama.
This week we talk what to do if you literally can’t make a decision right now:
DECIDE to box up the indecision. This IS a decision.
Here’s exactly what I do: I put my indecision and all the associated thoughts and feelings into a metaphorical Tiffany’s Box on my desk. I know it’s there, I know I’ll get to it, and I’ll give myself space to figure it all out. I only allow myself to entertain the issue at my weekly private coaching session with my coach. This way, I have a mind expert to help me investigate my thoughts and NOT get lost on the spin and despair.
When I open the box, I have a decision waiting for me.
I didn’t have to think 24/7 on it. I don’t lose any sleep. I just had to lovingly put it in a box. Constrain the indecision. Let my brain rest.
You get all this in this week’s podcast where you get all this:
✅Two ways to know when you’re stuck in indecision
✅Three myths BUSTED
✅How to constrain indecision
✅What to do while your indecision is contained
✅How to let the decision find you

In this week’s podcast, you’ll know how to make good decisions FAST.
Decisions, themselves, are easy. We look at all the options. We pick one. That’s it.
It’s the DRAMA surrounding the decision that’s hard.
The faster you get out of decision-drama, the faster you’ll feel better.
When we have decision-drama, we spin in confusion, suffer with painful stories, feel trapped with no choice, and start shutting down.
Instead of focus at work…we’re distracted, clinic takes longer, and we get home later…exhausted from all the overthinking.
Instead of presence at home… our brains are constantly thought looping on all the issues. We’re quick to yell about the dirty dishes in the living room and then feel terrible about that too. We go through dinner-bath-bedtime routine but don’t actually hear what the kids are saying.
Instead of enjoying our dream vacation in the Bahamas…we’re worrying about a disaster work schedule that hasn’t even happened yet. We’d never bring our boss on vacation with us intentionally, and yet here she is in our mind 24/7 in the Caribbean. Yuck.
The key is to know how to make good decisions FAST.
In this week’s podcast episode, you’ll do just that with this brand new tool:
The Zero Decision-Drama Drill.
Here’s how it works:
✅Simplifies the process.✅Eliminates the drama and stories.✅Creates total clarity.✅Syncs three key perspectives.
PLUS you’ll get a reliable tool to confirm your decision.
This is how you make good decisions FAST.
More focus at work. Get home sooner.
More presence at home. Actually hear the kids tell you about their day.
More connection and FUN on vacation, while the boss stays in her own dang zip code.
Decisions aren’t hard.
Drama is hard.
Ditch the drama with The Zero Decision-Drama Drill.
Let decisions be easy.

Medicine is broken.
You didn’t break it.
It’s not your responsibility to fix it.
Between non-compete clauses, uneven schedules, ambiguous P&T processes, and “rules that only apply to certain faculty,” Medicine has insulated itself from radical change.

Sure, being the boss’ favorite has its perks.
Of course, it’s fun. Except when it’s not.
If we only feel good when the boss is gushing over us, we DON’T learn the skill of how to take care of ourselves.
It’s easy to feel forgotten when we aren’t mentioned at faculty meeting…when she does NOT stop by to say Hi…or when she stops nominating us to her friends.
The solution is NOT to work harder.
You work hard enough.
The solution is to become YOUR own favorite person.
You won’t learn this skill at your wellness trainings. You didn’t learn this in med school. No one is teaching this at your center.
You can learn this skill here in this week’s podcast.
When you have this skill, you’ll feel better IMMEDIATELY.
You can listen to this podcast TODAY and feel better TODAY.
I designed it to give you INSTANT wins.
When the boss gushes over the new hire at the faculty meeting, you’ll know how to take care of you.
When the boss doesn’t stop by to check in, you’ll get home faster and be glad for it.
When the boss doesn’t nominate you, you’ll find other ways to get invited speakerships.
This one skill will make your life better IN EVERY WAY.
Teach this skill to your partner and kids and their lives will be upleveled too.
HEAR THIS:
It’s a good thing that you aren’t your boss favorite.
Being your own favorite is WAY BETTER.
Click the button below for your 3-quick steps to becoming your own favorite person.
Give yourself an instant win TODAY.
Feel better NOW.
PS. To truly OWN this skill, join my lifetime group coaching program where we do this work EVERY DAY in community. We closed the doors to the public, but you can still join by scheduling a consult at https://www.yourpathinfocus.com/. Get started today. Feeling better is one click away.
Stop waiting on the boss to tell you that you work hard enough.
It's not happening. No matter how hard you try.
You could sleep 5h/night, go to all the grand round lectures, host all the faculty candidate dinners, go to each holiday dinner at her house, write 9 papers a year, miss your own colonoscopy to pick up a service day, and she will still have ideas on how you can do more. She might even suggest you delay your promotion by a year so your colleagues don’t feel jealous. True story.
Of course it would be amazing for her to say, “Congratulations you have done enough. You should slow down and rest- you earned it!”
BUT, since she won’t EVER say this, the solution is to DECIDE that you are enough.
“You ARE enough” is a DECISION you get to make.
You are enough. Just as you are. Without any more papers or dinners. Exactly as you are right this second.
You get to believe whatever you want about yourself.
DECIDE that you are enough.
Believing that you are NOT enough, will have you waiting for the boss’s approval (it’s not coming), overworking, and skipping your own colonoscopy.
Believing in yourself is actually LESS work.
When you believe you are enough, you’ll feel better, lighter, and your mind will be clearer.
You’ll get more done in half the time.
You’ll have more time to snuggle the kids.
More time to do nothing in particular.
Empty, white space. Open calendars. NO meetings.
It starts with DECIDING you are enough just as you are.
From this place you can create more, if you want to. But this is where you start. This is where you bring your brain back to when you are feeling sad, defeated, or small. Come back to this place right exactly here.
You ARE enough.
Just as you are.
Just EXACTLY as you are.
Don’t miss this week’s podcast. You’ll learn how to do be enough WITHOUT working harder.

When you find yourself stuck, consider that your brain is right about ALL OF IT. Yep, I said it.
Client T.R. describes visiting her in-laws as a dreadful experience full of tension and chaos because they are messy and she can't sleep at their house.
She thought the solution was for in-laws to be neater, which felt terrible because she couldn't control them. She also blamed herself for being mean. This also felt terrible.
I offered T.R. that the solution was actually so much simpler. We could agree with her brain on all of the facts: they are messy and she can't sleep at their house. She is right on all of it. When she supported herself by agreeing with the facts, she felt better immediately. We then started brainstorming on how she could make the trip to the in-laws a little bit easier. She decided next time she’d tidy a bit and recruit her husband to take the in-laws out for lunch so she could take a nap.
Where in your life are you feeling stuck? What if, instead, you could agree with your brain by recognizing the facts as facts AND directing all your energies to supporting yourself instead?
The job is hard. The boss can be unfair. The kids aren't sleeping through the night. These are all facts. Now what can we do to make it a little easier on ourselves? It's all right here in this week's episode. Share with your friends.

"But what if I can."
The first response of any human brain is usually “no” followed by all the reasons why something can’t possibly work and YOU can’t possibly do it.
Expect the resistance.
It means you have a normal human brain, just like mine.
Avoid the urge to believe your brain and quit on yourself. Quitting is basic. You are not.
Meet your brain with this new sentence: "But what if I can."
Let this sentence open you up to possibility.
Let the possibility show you all the options, help you take your next step, and then go out in the world and CREATE the results that will build your belief IN YOU.
Every time your brain says you can’t, keep bringing your brain back to “but what if I can.”
Because here’s the stone-cold truth:
You totally can.

Brains love evidence, plans that make sense, & pubmed citations.
Of course, data can be great. Except when it's not there.
Depending on data can also limit you.
When we only create based on what already exists, we get stuck creating more of the same.
We don't allow ourselves create something entirely new; we don't allow ourselves create something entirely better.
This week I teach how to leave room for the magic.
I share three stories of how leaving space for the magic created BETTER results.
Story 1: My goal was to create $100,000 my first year of coaching. At month 10 I had created $55,000. My brain wanted to give up because there was no sensible way to create $45,000 in 2 months at the rate I was going. AND I did it anyway because I learned to leave room for the magic.
Where are you holding yourself back because you don't have proof? Telling yourself you can't have your dream because it's impossible?
In this week's show, I teach that you CAN get to your desired result without the evidence.
If you're creating something entirely new, you actually are REQUIRED to create without any evidence.
It will require more of yourself than quitting. Quitting is easy. Becoming the person who never quits on herself is POWERFUL.
It will require you to go off course when there is no well marked path. You will create your own path. Your path will be better.
It will require you to steer your brain back to possibility when life feels impossible.
It will require you to trust yourself more than numbers.
It will require you to dig deep and find brilliant solutions, new ideas, and possibility.
All of this is in you already.
You are ready.

This week I am sharing the single most powerful tool that has helped me this past month. Ready?
Life is hard is a fact. Most of us get stuck trying to resist the hard by saying "it should NOT be hard" or "if my boss would only support me it wouldn't be so hard."
The resisting of the Hard is where it's easy to feel powerless.
In this week's podcast I offer a whole new thought: THIS HARD IS FOR ME.
I use my own journey as the CEO of my coaching program.
My work is fighting generations of burnout/hustle culture in Medicine. Of course it's hard. It HAS to be hard. This hard is worth it. I NEED this hard to effect change. This hard helps me work with my best clients, help them fall in love with their jobs again, be more connected to their children, feel good enough in their own skin, become leaders in their own lives, all while working LESS. I need this hard to stretch and grow. This hard helps me create purpose, meaning, and the BEST ideas. This hard is FOR ME. When I fully believe this thought, I create powerful energy, actions, and results.
Listen to this episode to find how the hard in your life is FOR you.
Light yourself up with this energy.
Let this high quality energy help you create better results in less time WHILE feeling fully empowered.

There is no doubt that you're used to doing hard things:
med school, marriage, babies, & doctoring during the pandemic all while keeping the dog's nails trimmed.
If this sounds like you, KNOW THIS: life doesn't always have to be hard. It actually can be easy.
Here's the trap most people fall into: If the brain knows hard work, sometimes it invents hard, even when it doesn't have to be hard.
Our brains take simple tasks and make them complicated... even when they aren't.
Our brains take easy tasks and makes them challenging... even when they aren't.
The brain loves what the brain knows.
The brain will invent hard, even if it isn't there, because that's just what it knows.
Our brains learn that hard is comfortable.
Here's the best news ever: brains can UN-LEARN this too.
In this episode I share how to teach your brain that life can be EASY & SIMPLE.
Once you re-train your brain, your brain will find ways to help KEEP your life easy & simple.
The process is easier than you think.
This episode contains 3 simple steps to letting life be easy.

Last week we talked about HOW to create belonging wherever we are in the world.
This week we talk about how NOT-belonging can be equally amazing.
This one concept was the most helpful concept that helped me retire from Medicine.
Here's what happened...
I was walking on campus and it struck me that I've never really felt like I belonged in Medicine.
Oh sure, I could coach myself and create a sense of belonging but it never felt natural or easy to me.
It always required A LOT of work to get there.
Before coaching, I made this Not-belonging feeling mean that something was wrong with me:
I must not be working hard enough.
This thinking was so painful.
And sometimes I thought that maybe something was wrong with the job, the work culture, the people.
This thinking was so painful too.
More recently when I revisited this feeling of Not-belonging in Medicine, I didn't have any blame or shame about it.
Nothing was wrong with me; nothing was wrong with the job.
I just didn't belong in Medicine.
I know I could do the work to feel that sense of belonging in Medicine.
I just didn't want to do the work anymore.
I'd rather put all the time and energy into being a full time life coach where I am overflowing with belonging AND it takes ZERO effort.
Coming to this realization m
ade retiring from Medicine effortless.
Where in your life do you experience NOT-belonging?
What if it isn't a problem at all?
What if it's simply a road sign pointing you to areas where you do belong.
AND you don't have to take drastic steps like retiring from your job-- this episode walks you through how tiny baby steps can have a massive impact AND go back to listen to episode 123 to learn how to create belonging 24/7 on demand.
You won't want to miss this one!

In this week's episode we talk about how to feel 1% better.
This concept, by the way, was shared by the brilliant Martha Beck, Kara Loewentheil, and Candice Toone.
The idea is that the human brain is sooooo dramatic:
it's designed to look out for doom & gloom and it's usual response to change is.... "change?, no thank you!"
And this type of thinking is what has us feeling stuck & trapped.
The beauty of this week's tool is that we don't have to make everything better all at once-- we are just shooting for 1% better.
Here's why 1% better WORKS:
💗When we present our brain with a 1% change, it's much easier for the brain to get on board because 1% doesn't sound dramatic at all!
💗We feel better immediately
💗We see results immediately
💗The 1% change compounds to something totally magnificent over time
Of course there's more to it.

It is a really sweet, funny, and totally human story.
It was actually one of the most special days of my life.
And this is available for you too this holiday season.
It's a quick 4-step process with so many funny stories along the way:
❤️consider where in your life you're waiting for someone else to do something so you feel valued;
❤️be honest about what you want (drop any judgements to what you want; assume you can have it all!!);
❤️be curious about the infinite options to get it;
❤️consider giving it to yourself!
When you do, you will realize that you do NOT have to wait on anyone else EVER!
You CAN throw yourself the best dang surprise goodbye party on your own terms.
The truth is that you're all you ever need-- that's how powerful and wonderous you are.

Wanna know how to make the best decisions forever and always???
What holds most of us back is that we're afraid we're making the wrong decision, everything will be destroyed, and we'll regret everything.
This week on the podcast we talk how to GUARANTEE we're always make the best decision.
We start with WHY decisions can be hard AND how to make them easier.
This episode is great if you want to break a habit, ditch procrastinating, change jobs, retire, or ask partner for support--
if you want to make a change, it all starts with making a SINGLE decision.
Imagine how your life might be different if you were always making the best decision.
❤️You wouldn't spin in confusion & self-doubt-- you'd save tons of time and energy by being CERTAIN.
❤️You wouldn't stop yourself with scary thoughts like "you'll regret this" - you'd never have regrets.
❤️You wouldn't wait to have evidence of success & a plan for everything; you'd create the impossible on your terms.
❤️You wouldn't feel stuck & trapped-- you'd trust yourself to know what you want AND how to get it.
The solution is simpler than you might think AND you can get started today.
When you know this tool, you'll know how to show up for yourself and have your back No.Matter.What.
It'll feel AMAZING, you'll drop into action, and you'll create extraordinary results.
You'll also know that you can change your mind and uplevel your decision ANY time you want.

PS. If you love this episode, we do this work every day inside my LIFETIME group coaching program. You can feel better for life. I can show you how. You get started right away and our next group call is just a few days away. Your boss just might pay when you copy/paste my sample letter that has helped many/most of my clients have their coaching completely paid for by the boss (if you need CME, we have 50 CME).💗 Check it out HERE: https://www.yourpathinfocus.com/
I submitted my resignation letter October 21.
It consisted of four sentences.
Twenty two years in medicine to get to this place; four sentences to close this chapter.
I thought I'd be elated when I hit submitted on the resignation letter.
Instead I felt tears on my face and realized that I was sad.
I was grieving this career that I had dreamed about and had loved for 22 years.
It made so much sense to be sad.
When I allowed in the sadness, I also allowed in all sorts of other beautiful feelings:
gratefulness at a wonderful career in medicine, pride for a job well done, integrity for how I resigned, love for my patients and colleagues and field, and excitement for a new chapter.
When we don't let ourselves feel our sadness (or whatever negative feeling we have), we also block out the positive feelings too.
When we allow ourselves to have our sadness, we also allow in the gratefulness, pride, integrity, love, and excitement.
I felt the term "resignation letter" was super lame and loaded with negative connotations and didn't at all capture this major life transition.
I didn't want to focus on how this was an ending; I wanted to focus on how this was the beginning of something even more extraordinary.
I decided to write myself an "acceptance letter" to honor and celebrate the past 22 years AND also make room for the possibility to come.
I share the acceptance letter in this episode.
This podcast will help you ask powerful questions and is loaded with many tools that will help you be more you:
What are you ready to let go of and what are you ready to attract into your life?
For your next transition, what if you did NOT have to be 100% ready, what if you were WILLING to let go of good to get to extraordinary? what if your life isn't 10 of 10, it's really 2 of 10 (not from a place of shame but instead from a place of possibility for so much more).
And so much more.
This episode is everything.

This lesson will help every human on the planet:
don't compare your insides to someone else's outsides.
I'm actually not sure where I heard this (I didn't make it up!), but this is a fundamental coaching principle that will help you feel better today.
This shows up as feeling pain when we think coworker's schedule is easier, sister is a better mom, or our friend has a better coaching business.
Human brains compare All.The.Time.
It really isn't a problem UNTIL we make it mean that we are doing life wrong, we are lazy, and we'll never succeed.
In this podcast, we flip the script on all of this.
We START with this powerful question:
What if your brain is RIGHT?
What if you do deserve a better schedule, more money, and a bigger practice?
If we can drop the despair, we can maintain curiosity about how to get exactly what we deserve.
Folks, this episode is pure 🔥🔥🔥.
You get all this:
✅awareness that compare-despair means you have a human brain AND it can be interrupted,
✅how comparison can be a powerful way to get exactly what you want (if you can drop the shame around where you are), and
✅how to transform compare-DESPAIR into compare-CURIOSITY to create your best you

This week we talk ONE SENTENCE that was voted the most transformational at my recent national coaching workshop.
Here's the problem: our brains think that our value is outside of us AND that we have to work to be valued.
This shows up as us agreeing to work we don't want to do at work, at home, and in our relationships.
It often means we don't allow ourselves to rest because there is always more work we should be doing.
This is exhausting and it never works long-term.
The solution is so much easier.
Join me in this podcast to learn how your value was 100% the day you were born.
There is nothing you HAVE to do that can raise or lower your value: a clean kitchen and more committee work won't increase your value and a disappointed boss and a messy bathroom won't lower your value.
When you understand this, you get to feel valued ANYTIME you want to feel valued.
You create your value from within.
You create space to live in "but what do I want to do next?"
Click the podcast for all the tips, tools, and examples on how this one sentence can change your life TODAY!

Have you noticed how we show up to work with no drama and we just get it done? Have you noticed how we abandon all discipline when it comes to our dreams? We negotiate constantly, ask ourselves if we really have to do it now, procrastinate on the essential tasks, and delay the dream. Our dreams are every bit as important as our work (I think they are actually MORE important). Can you IMAGINE where we'd be if we approached our dreams with as much discipline as we approached our day jobs????? We'd probably already be retired from our day jobs! In this podcast, I help you adopt a whole new relationship with discipline AND your dreams.

This week we go behind the scenes and I share the sweet little tool I leaned on all week when my husband was out of town, kid #1 had COVID, kid #2 needed a lot of driving around town, and we were headed out of the country.
This tool was soooooo helpful for keeping life together when life got really cray-cray!
This tool applies to buying a house, applying for a grant, writing a paper, leaving Medicine, starting a coaching business, and doing all sorts of hard things.
Here's the thing: brains love to get confused and overwhelmed by life, which makes it harder to get through the day.
In this show, you'll learn how to get going when your brain wants to hide under a rock.
The secret to getting started is to decide on the minimum baseline-- the absolute necessary items needed to get the result you want.
There are tricks and traps with this tool...make sure to check out the 15-min show for the full scoop.
Click below to know how to execute this sweet little tool.

This week we go backstage on the podcast.
I teach you the single MOST transformative tool taught to the private 1:1 clients this week:
I teach you how to live into your best case scenario so that you feel immediately better, you create your own peace and ease, and you take a massive leap toward your dream life.
Here's the problem, our human brains are experts in disaster outcomes that usually sound like "I'm going to be fired, lose my house, and be homeless."
When we interrupt our brain to show it the best case scenario, we create our own security and ease and we open up to possibility.
This tool won't add more time to your already busy day.
I teach how to incorporate this tool into the existing pockets of time, i.e. when you walk from your car to your office, when you are in the shower, etc.
The entire process takes less than a minute.
You will feel better IMMEDIATELY.
The biggest take way is this: to achieve the best case scenario, we have to be willing to risk the worst case scenario coming true AND feel all the feelings along the way. It's that simple. Check out this week's podcast for all this:
💖when to use this tool
💖how to implement this tool
💖all the obstacle thoughts in the way
💖the one secret to this tool

We are working on how to prevent regret. In this week's show I teach you Such.A.GREAT.Tool: See the unintended results. When life gets spicy, it's easy to have an URGE to get the last word, eat that extra slice of pizza, work longer hours. But we want to create space to see beyond the urge. When we see the unintended results (conflict with a loved one, not fitting in to our clothes, being exhausted), we show our brain the truth. We get to CHOOSE on purpose what we want to create for ourselves. We become the boss of our life. We create love with our loved ones (even if we don't' get the last word). We fit in our clothes and have great energy (even if we did skip the extra slice of pizza. We feel rested on Monday (even if we didn't work all Sunday afternoon). We of course can choose the path of unintended results. I for sure do sometimes. But let it be our CHOICE. Decide on purpose.

This week we start in our new series: What to do when life gets SPICY!
Here's how life usually happens: We make a decision, other people say and do things, we forget our reasons, we berate ourselves and feel terrible, we don't trust ourselves to make future decisions, we then make lower quality decisions, and so on.
This painful process is cyclical AND it can be interrupted.
In this week's show I teach the quick, powerful tool of remembering your reasons.
First, you have to know that your decision was the best decision based on the information you had. How do we know? Because it was the decision you made; telling ourselves it was the wrong decision is arguing with reality and you will always lose that argument.
Second, go back in time when you made this decision and find your reasons. I promise you had amazing reasons. We just sometimes forget them. When we remind ourselves of the solid reasons for the solid decision, we sink into calm
We feel better.
We trust ourselves.
And we empower ourselves to CONTINUE to make high-quality decisions.
Here are the 4-steps we discuss in this week's episode:
-
Know that it was the best decision based on the information you had; it was meant to be.
-
Remember your reasons.
-
Honor your reasons, your decision, and the person who made the decision (you).
-
Re-evaluate everything based on any new information from the perspective of complete trust, love, and pride for you. It's ok to change your mind AND it's ok to choose the exact same decision.

Here's a fun, little, NEW coaching tool that I've found has massive, immediate results in all parts of life.
This week we talk how to Neutralize a triggering situation.
Here's how life often happens: Other people do and say stuff; Our very normal human brain sometimes makes those neutral words and actions mean something terrible and then we feel pain.
There is nothing wrong with our brain, BUT these stories often don't feel great and they interfere with our ability to connect with the people we love (including ourselves).
Before coaching, I would try to change the other person through extensive boundaries, requests, consequences-- so exhausting and it never worked!
In this week's episode I teach you how to Neutralize the story so you can let go of the charged, prickly emotions, IF YOU WANT. Of course, you don't have to let go of anything. We just want to offer the brain the option of calm, peace, and connection.
Once we neutralize the story in our brain, we free ourselves up to choose, create, and enjoy the best things in life.
When we can put the story down, we open ourselves up to So.Much.More.
We create love, possibility, and joy.
It feels light.
It feels right.
It takes just 3 simple steps to neutralize:
💡Step 1: Assume the other person respects, supports, appreciates, and loves you
💡Step 2: Assuming he/she/they respect you, find neutral reasons why they may have said or done XYZ that have nothing to do personally with you
💡Step 3: What if this is how the other person engages with the world and it has nothing personally to do with you
Of course, this tool is to never become a doormat. See prior shows on requests, boundaries, and manuals. And stay tuned on more on when a relationship is complete. No matter what, getting to neutral is the best next step to making the best next decision ♥️

Today you're getting the best coaching tools for vacations (and the rest of the year).
This episode was created out of popular demand that heated up with summer 2022 vacations: you won't want to miss it.
NOT knowing these tools is the difference between dreading a vacation and feeling refreshed.
NOT having this toolkit is the difference between seething in conflict and settling into peace.
When we vacation with other people, there will be conflict. For sure. 100%. Absolutely.
This is because different people have different experiences, interests, and dreams.
The differences don't have to be a problem.
The solution is NOT to change the other people (I wish that was possible but, folks, it just ain't).

Did you know that growth requires knowing how to move through Grief? As we evolve, we learn to let go of who we were to become who we are meant to be. Grieving who we were is ESSENTIAL to becoming who we are meant to be. Humans grieve when we lose something we love. It's a natural human feeling that reveals everything about us. Grief has so much to give us, if we are willing to feel it long enough to learn from it. This week's lesson is essential for life.

This is a landmark show! Folks, we are on episode 100! And this show delivers in a BIG way. I've been planning this show for months!! This show is everything. It's years of jam packed life, wisdom, and love with the best mind-blowing lessons all packed into one tiny show.
On June 1 I left full-time Medicine to become a full-time master-certified professional-life coach.
All questions are answered in this show: why I made this decision, what actually happened, how it all became possible, who I had to become, and whats next.
No matter what your life situation is, this show has something for you.
Here's one: It's never the HOW, it's always the WHO.
It's not HOW did I leave medicine.
It's always WHO did I have to become to make this choice.
And, of course, all our choices are perfectly unique for our own special path.
You don't have to leave anything in your life.
The point is that the more we empower ourselves to CHOOSE US, the better we will feel and the more wonder we can create.
At the end of this show, you might pick all the same elements of your life that you have right now; and just the action of actively choosing and committing to you just might feel extraordinary.
Or you just might invent a completely new possibility for yourself.
Won't it be fun to figure out???
🎉 Click the button below to learn how to choose you 🎉
PS. 🔥Have you RSVP'd for my new Free, Live Training???!!!: A 5-Step Formula to go From Burnout to Feeling Better by Stop Overworking without Guilt. I'll teach you how to feel better even when the world feels like it's totally out of control. This is your little peace of quiet rest that you might be looking for. Feeling better is exactly one thought away. When we feel better, we do better.

Did you know you don't have to believe your brain?
Wait, what?!!?
Yep, you read that right.
I used to think that everything my brain offered must be 100% true because, well, it came from my brain.
The problem is that my brain constantly offers thoughts like, "look at you screwing up again," "you have too much to do in not enough time," "you are behind," "no one really likes you."
So you probably could understand why I was in a lot of pain when I believed my brain.
Today, I know I don't have to believe my brain-- and that changed everything!
Today, I realize that my brain offers me thoughts and some of them are painful.
My brain is a normal human brain and it is designed to try to keep me safe.
My brain is just trying to help-- it's just totally confused!
I also learned to take care of my brain, love on my brain, and talk to it way more than I listened to it.
It sounds like this when I talk to my brain: "of course you are stressed out about today, and of course you are trying to keep me safe, and I want you to know that I've got you, I got this, I will handle everything."
When I learned how to soothe my brain, instead of believing it, the pain started to slip away and I started to feel better immediately.
You might be wondering, "well, when can I believe my brain?"
My suggestion is to pay attention to the quality of the voice and how it feels.
If the voice sounds scared and judgy, it's probably your primitive brain trying to keep you safe; you don't have to believe it!. Try soothing your brain with reassuring statements and see if that helps you feel better.
If the voice is loving and encouraging and you feel peace, it's probably your higher self trying to guide you; believe your higher self and lean into taking care of you!
For more on how to take care of you, click the link below to hear this week's podcast that just might change everything.

This is such a special episode! We talk about a HIDDEN GEM that feels amazing and is critical for making our impossible dreams a total reality. But it is an often overlooked tool: This week we talk about how to ADORE the younger you. I teach this lesson in the context of my reflecting on resigning my full time physician position effective June 1. Have you ever been in so much pain that you were too afraid to take ANY step out of fear that it might lead to even more pain? In this show I share what I did when I found myself in that spot. My younger self just kept going, kept showing up, and kept being courageous and brave. The version of me that was able to become a full-time life coach and leave full-time medicine on June 1 was all thanks to the younger me. When we take time to adore, thank, love on our younger self, we build so much trust in ourselves, compassion for us, and energy to create an even more bold future. As we love on our younger self, we also get the chance to realize that the current version of us right this second is the younger us of tomorrow. When we trust and adore our younger self, it makes it even easier to trust and adore our current self. As we build trust in us, it becomes easier to take that next step away from pain and toward something extraordinary. Of course, you don't have to leave medicine to find something totally transformational in this show. This show can transform your life right where you are. Isn't that beautiful? Give it a try and write back to tell me everything! 🥰 Click the PLAY below for the HOW to ADORE your younger you! 🥰 PS. HUGE SURPRISE!!!

A brilliant client shared with me, "but I can't possibly take this risk because it just might break me." Ever had this thought? Maybe the risk is referring to you putting your name in for a new leadership position, considering a cross-country move, or trying that next diet. This is a common thought that comes up in coaching at the root of or as an explanation for not doing and not growing. And, of course, we never have to do anything. BUT, consider asking yourself these powerful questions:
What's so wrong about breaking? The breaking is what allows us to let go of the constrictions that bind us and, in doing so, the breaking allows us to fully stretch toward freedom.
What if the breaking is what makes us stronger? When we break and CHOOSE how we put ourselves back together, we will be STRONGER at the broken parts.
What if the breaking is our next evolution to our highest self? In that case, what we if we invite in, reach for, and CHOOSE the breaking?
Finally, consider that we can't EVER be broken. We are intact, whole, complete beings doing who are exactly where we are supposed to be, doing exactly what we are supposed to be doing, at the exact right pace. We can't possibly EVER be broken.
Once you are at peace with the breaking, how might your life be different, bigger, more extraordinary, more full of wonder???? There is one way to find out!!

Ever hear yourself say any of this?:
"Someday when I retire I will travel more," "When I get promoted to full professor I am going to stop working on the weekend," or "When my kids move away for college then I'll finally have time for a spa day."
Where do you want to be in 5 years? On last week's show we talked about creating our future self. We defined who we will be, what we'll need to believe, and how our life will be different. THIS WEEK, the work is to drop the future tense and start BEING her now! Stop referring to your future self as outside of you: drop the "but my future self wants to travel" and replace it with "I WANT to travel." Let go of the daydreaming language "when my kids go to college I'll have time for spa day" and instead create your spa day NOW. Be her NOW. The more you can start being her now, the more you will breath life into your impossible dreams.
PLUS, you get all these goodies:
✅The backstory of the podcast!
✅How to recognize signals that the universe is sending you [how to find your hot tracks!]

This is my FAVORITE episode OF.ALL.TIMES!
MustListen.
On a scale of 0 (terrible) to 10 (amazing), how would you rate your life?
If you are like most people, you probably scored your life at 6,7,8, or 9.
Medicine taught us never to rate ourselves at a 10 because surely there is always more work to do.
In this show you'll learn the problem with having a near perfect life.
When we think we are living a near perfect life, we often THINK that we can't possibly risk anything because we've worked so hard for all of this and ANY change will jeopardize EVERYTHING!
We stop taking risks.
We amplify our fears.
We slow our growth.
We smother our dreams.
But here's the mind-blowing truth: What if I told you that your life was really at a 2!!!!
Now what?!
What does that feel like to know you can grow and dream as BIG as you want because your life is ONLY getting better.
You can go all in on you and you are only going to come up with 10s across the board!
You have got to check out this episode.

Folks!, we are on our How to Make it EASY to deal with DIFFICULT people series, PART 2.
As a quick reminder, I developed an O-tool kit full of magic tools to help you make it EASY to deal with a DIFFICULT person without the other person changing.
Each tool has an "O" in it.
Each tool is POWERFUL, so I'm only releasing one new tool a week so that you have a week to practice it.
As the other person is the problem, we can’t feel better until they change.
And, folks, they will never change!
This is the best news ever because we are always the solution.
Always.
Here's what you get in this 10-minute episode:
✅Understand why your human brain goes on a judgement-frenzy when activated by your difficult person
✅Know why judging others is totally human AND also feels bad at some point
✅Know what to do with your brilliant brain to get it out of the judgment-frenzy
✅Know how to get to the most beautiful, peace in about 90 seconds WITHOUT the other person changing
The brain loves to go on a judgement-frenzy when it feels activated by a difficult person.
Once we label the person as “difficult” our brain will latch on to that person, loop on our negative thoughts about them, and not let them out of our mind because our brain sees them as a problem.
This might feel justified and good at first, but eventually, unrelenting judgment feels terrible.
It takes up a lot of mental real-estate, it’s exhausting, and we eventually will start to judge ourselves—so painful!
There is a simple solution!
This week’s O-tool is OBSERVE.
Instead of letting the brain run wild judging EVERYTHING, turn the brain’s attention INTO your body. Check out the show for all the details!!!
Studies show that when you invite the feeling in and stop resisting it, the feeling starts to break-apart, lighten, and lift in about 90seconds.
On the other side of this feeling is some of the beautiful peace of your life.
As an example, I share how sadness is the hardest emotion for me to feel.
I’ve had two major traumas in my life.
I remember telling myself after the last trauma that “I’m done with sadness for the rest of my life!!!”
And this thought and resistance to sadness created So.Much.More.Sadness.
Check out the show for the skinny on how I processed my own heartbreak.

Today I teach you how to Use The Gas You Got.
This is important because our brains love to tell us we can't do a project unless we feel Motivation or Inspiration-- Lies!
Once you learn to Use The Gas You Got, you learn that you can create ANYTHING from ANY feeling.
This show teaches you how to become UNSTOPPABLE.
Ever delay a task because you are waiting for a feeling of Inspiration, Motivation, or Enthusiasm to arrive?
Maybe you were feeling Dread, Frustration, or Annoyance.
When we reject our goals because of the emotion we are experiencing (or the fuel in our gas tank), we reject ourselves, which only creates more negative emotion.
That's so painful!
There is another way.
Of course, Motivation is amazing and it does fuel powerful actions.
BUT, if we don't have Motivation in our gas tank, we don't have to wait around for Motivation to arrive!!; we don't have to give up on the task.
Instead!!, we can Use The Gas We Got.
You really can create something amazing from any feeling.
Use the Gas You Got.
For me, I can't easily get motivated before I have results.
If I wait around Motivation to arrive, guess what??? I get no results!
Instead, I am learning to Use the Gas I Got.
Sometimes the Gas I Got is Dread, and that's the gas that gets me started.
Dread if fine!
Dread is perfect!
Dread can get you started!
For me to start a project, I know my brain loves motivation to start BUT it doesn't NEED motivation to start.
I find it helpful to use whatever gas I got.
It's also helpful to find a pocket of commitment or courage, which is way more accessible to me than Motivation when I have zero results.
Now, after i start getting into a groove and seeing results, Motivation pops into my gas tank and we are golden.
The point is to Use the Gas You Got.
It just might be the exact perfect feeling you need to get started.
How do we know its perfect?
Because its the feeling you have.
Here's what you get in this 16-minute show!:
✅NAME the Gas You Got
✅LOVE the Gas You Got
✅USE the Gas You Got
✅Explore how the Gas You Got is PERFECT for this particular situation
👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻Click the URL below to know how to use the gas you got👈🏻👈🏻👈🏻

In this show, I teach you how to spot your familiar story-pattern.
This is important so that you don't let the familiar story sabotage you!
Sometimes when we are distressed, our brains often to go to the familiar story just because the path is well-worn.
The familiar story may not even be true. At all.
Just because a story is familiar, doesn't mean the story is accurate.
Here are some questions to get you started: If the familiar story is gone, what would be left? What is the gem below the familiar? What is the root emotion that needs attention here.
This show helps you dig into the experience to find the real root cause thought/feeling, process it, and move forward.
Common familiar stories include these oldies but goodies:
I'm doing everything wrong;
everyone hates me;
I'm not far enough along;
they don't value me;
I don't have enough time.
Any of this sound familiar?
Here's what you get in this 14-min show:
✅Know your familiar stories
✅See those familiar stories coming from a mile away!
✅Question everything so you check-it before you wreck it
✅Find the story behind the story

Today I teach on the sneaky thought "this is a waste of time."
This is important because this thought feels terrible and stops all progress.
By the end of the show, you'll know how to NEVER waste time again!
Think about the last time you said, "this is a waste of time!"
Sometimes, this thought is useful if it helps us let go of unimportant tasks and, therefore, align us with our goals.
BUT, most times, our brain offers this thought as a way of discouraging us from trying new things because the brain HATES new things.
New things take time, energy, and have a risk of failure.
So, of course, when the brain sees us trying to stretch and grow and do new things, the brain tries to stop us with thoughts like "this is a waste of time."
When we believe its a waste of time and stop growing, this fear-based part of our brain gets STRONGER.
Another option is to learn how to manage this thought.
In this show, you'll learn how to be the boss of this thought in 4 simple steps:
✅Raise awareness to where this thought is coming up
✅Understand that this thought usually comes up around important goals that require growth as a way for our brain to try to preserve energy and prevent failure. This thought is a sign you are doing it right!
✅Question everything: Is this true, how do I define waste, what if it's not a waste of time, what am I gaining here, how is this an invitation for me to grow
✅Consider deciding that you can NEVER waste time by committing to the learning of it all

Today I teach you how to create more for YOU in 2022.
This is important because this small shift takes about NO time and yet it helps bring ease and love to you.
When you have more love for you, you have more love to give everyone.
Ever say these things?!?!:
I hate that my husband never puts the kids to bed,
I hate that my kids always mess up the kitchen counter,
I hate that I always call my mom and she never calls me.
If you are a human, like me, you probably have said these things.
This hate creates more hate, resentment, and irritation.
Our brain thinks the solve is to have the husband, kids, and mom change.
But the solution is so much simpler!
This week, try this instead!: Put the kids to bed and lets tell ourselves, "I love putting the kids to bed and I am doing this for ME," or don't put the kids to bed if you don't want to.
Clean the kitchen counter and lets tell ourselves, "I love a clean counter and I'm doing this for ME," or don't clean the counter if you don't want to.
How often can you say, "I am doing this for ME because I want this." How often can you find a way to do more in service of you (or skip doing it if you don't want to do it)?
Of course, we can certainly make requests for husband, kids, and mom to change.
BUT, if they don't (because often they won't), this show helps us take care of us!
Click below to see how this small shift that can have a HUGE impact on YOU in the best possible ways.

That was NOT a typo!
And this is NOT about New Year's Resolutions.
I actually don't do New Year's Resolutions.
Instead, I like to reflect on where I am, where I'm going, and what's next....whenever this reflection time feels right.
This episode will walk you through my usual process for my clients and myself.
To get started, first decide WHO you want to be in 2023 in as much detail as possible: what time will you be waking up, how will you be carrying yourself at work, what will you be thinking, where will you vacation, who will be around your holiday dinner table, etc?
The WHO always comes before the HOW.
Once you know the WHO, the HOW follows naturally.
Then, I'll give you a little gift given to me by Bev Aron as we all started Master Coach Training.
Ask yourself these 4 questions:
-
What do you have to give up to become him/her/them/zem/xem?
-
What would it feel like to give this up?
-
How has this thing served you?
-
How has this thing blocked you?

Today we talk about how to make the next best decision.
If you are like most doctors, you will go to your brain to intellectualize the heck out of the decision, you will have about 5 dominant thought-voices run conflicting commentary, and you might end up in self-doubt and confusion.
Sound exhausting and familiar?!?!
Let's try something new!
This show will teach you how to FEEL your way to your next best decision.
Our brains are liar-liar-pants-on-fire; our brains CONSTANTLY lie to us.
Our bodies NEVER lie to us.
So, go to your body and FEEL your way to your next great decision.
For example, when you decide on option A, do you feel closed, restricted, tight? These are signs that your body does NOT want to go on that path. Or do you feel open, lighter, and excited? These are signs that your body feels aligned with that decision.
Choose in the direction of openness, lightness, and excitement.
Click below to find out how to choose in the direction of you.
EVERY TIME.

Christina
PS. Of course you can be coached on feeling OPEN to any decision, but let's just sit this week in listening to our bodies FIRST.

PS. Check your inbox for an exclusive Black Friday offer from UplevelMD. Here's how to make 2022 the best year yet with a BOGO UplevelMD. Space is limited to the first 3 that respond. You are one decision away from your next best chapter. See you soon!❤️
This week's magic trick will help you bring down the drama in your life.
For this week, try responding to CONTENT instead of responding to TONE.
For example.....last Friday I asked my daughter, "can you please do the laundry by Sunday afternoon?"
My daughter rolled her eyes, huffed, said something under her breath, and pouted, "I will do the laundry by Sunday" with each word dripping with all sorts of tones.
I stripped out the eye rolls, huffs, tones, and revised her response in my head to a neutral "I will do the laundry by Sunday."
All of a sudden, the conversation is EASY.
I just said, "OK, thanks."
She did the laundry by Sunday.
There was no war.
There was only peace and space.
This works equally well with work, inlaws, and ex-es.
Give it a try!

Our brains love to think in binary options:
wrong OR right;
good OR bad;
nice OR mean;
hot OR cold, etc.
This type of binary thinking leads to so much drama, frustration, and irritation.
Wanna know a quick pro-tip???
This week's pro-tip is to raise awareness around when your brain is trying to trick you into believing there are only two options. Instead of using "OR" substitute in the "AND" statement.
For example, my brain loves to tell me, "either the kitchen is clean OR i am a terrible mom."
Instead, revise these thoughts with an "AND" statement:
The kitchen is a mess AND
I am irritated AND
that's ok AND
I am a good mom AND
that has nothing to do with how many dishes are in the sink AND
I can ask my kids for help AND
they can be grumpy about chores AND
i don't like chores either AND
there is no problem here!
Now you try!
This trick is so simple AND it is also profound.
Get it!

I dare you to find what's true.
When you find yourself in the middle of a storm and life feels totally out of control, pump the brakes to ask yourself "what is true?"
Write down everything that is 100% a fact.
Find the truth.
The drama comes from the stories (what we make the stories mean).
Focus on the truth.
Turn the truth into a math problem.
Every math problem has a solution.
It all starts with the truth.
It really can be simple.
Check out this all-new 6-minute episode on how to solve any problem.

I dare you to use a ladder or bridge thought today!
Sometimes, when we are trying to believe NEW things, the thing we are trying to believe doesn't feel at all believable.
In this case, I suggest not wasting your time on thoughts that seem totally unattainable.
Instead, create a ladder or bridge thought to help you transition into your dream thought.
You are always just 2 to 3 thoughts away from your dream life.

I dare you to answer any crises this week by saying in your head "and Now What."
Instead of letting our brains run wild creating stories, intrigue, and drama, like my brain LOVES to do!!, consider meeting ever challenge with "and Now What."
Something WILL for sure happen this week because it always does.
And we could for sure turn to drama and deplete our time and energy and feel tired, OR, we could just say "and Now What."
We could just empower ourselves, save time and energy, and create the life we intend to lead.
We get to decide what to feel, do, and create.
Always.
And Now What?!
It really can be that simple.

Find someone you've had friction or drama with.
Now, let all the grand and petty issues come to the surface.
Do your best to find ANY area where you just might be jealous of the other person (this is the hardest part but it is also where the magic trick is!!!).
If so, ask yourself, "why am I jealous?"
The answer is the key to your next best chapter.
If you can allow yourself to explore a new dimension to the other person, you will find an area in your own life that part of your brain really wants you to uplevel.
Give that to yourself and you step into your next best chapter, you ditch the jealousy with the other person, and life becomes a little bit easier.
In this way, some of the difficult people in our lives can be a gift, if we are open to using them as a Gieger counter (of sorts) to finding what we really want and need for ourselves.
This 7-minute podcast will give you the dish of what I learned from my very challenging relationship flavor of the moment.
I went from really hating on someone to realizing that my intense feelings weren't about them at all.
Meanwhile, the "other person" no longer takes up real-estate in my mind.
She's just a gift to help me live my best life.
It was the most beautiful thing ever.

This week, I dare you to love a difficult person.
Go ahead- think of the difficult people in your life.
Now pick the most challenging person and be willing to love them this week.
It doesn't have to be forever! Tell your brain this is just a one week challenge.
Learning to love a difficult person is one of the most powerful gifts you can give yourself.
As long as your brain labels them a difficult bully with toxic energy, your brain will fixate on them and your mind will be consumed with thoughts and judgements that may even wake you up at 3a. Meanwhile, they are enjoying a margarita at the pool and not thinking about you at all. Our stress, resentment, disdain for them doesn't change them at all. But it can change us-- it drains our energy, distracts us from our loved ones, and feels terrible. In doing so, we just create more hate in the world and that hate lives in us and prevents us from experiencing love.
Know this-- while you can't change a difficult person, you can prevent a difficult person from changing you.
You're learning to love a difficult person is for YOUR SAKE, not theirs.
Once you learn how to love this difficult person, your brain will open up voluminous space to create value in your life on your own terms.

What I've learned through coaching almost 1400 hours of women physicians is that divorce, difficult jobs, and tense relationships often have something very important in common:
Ineffective requests, boundaries, and manuals.
And it’s not our fault.
Society teaches us to make pretty terrible ones.
No wonder many people are afraid to make requests and boundaries because we are afraid of damaging relationships.
BUT if you know how to use these tools to your advantage, they can actually strengthen, protect, and help a relationship.
It really can be easy.
Find out what no one else knows.
And then go out and change your world.

This new tool has brought so much ease into my life this week.
It will work for you too.
Human brains are so darn brilliant and busy.
If we don't give it a task, it will get busy finding danger and creating drama because that's what normal human brains are best at.
SO! This week try assigning your brain the task of delivering you as much COMFORT as possible.
Our brains mistakenly think that if other people change, then we would be comfortable, but that never works.
We are the only person who can give us comfort and in the most amazing ways.
Comfort feels like a warm sweater, hot coco, and a warm fire in the fire place while Netflix plays my favorite shows.
Comfort is amazing!
Use this trick for prepping for that next presentation, waiting for the lab results, going to mom's, and for EVERY moment in between.
xoxo,

PS. Of course part of creating comfort is knowing how to ask for what you want from your partner, your mother in law, and your boss.

Ever find yourself struggling to say "no" to the boss, a coworker, teenage daughter, or the in-laws?
These 5 words will change your life: I love you but "no."
This episode gives you the gift of how to say "no" from a place of ease and grace.
This is waaaaaaaaaay better than saying "yes", feeling resentment/obligation/seething anger, doing the task, and only creating more resentment, obligation, and seething anger for yourself and the other person.
Instead!!!, try saying 'i love you but "no."'
If you don't want to tell the boss you love her, no problem! Say it in your head because love feels so much better than obligation.
You will learn how to put this in place for your kids, your boss, your coworkers, your partner, your in-laws, your family, and, most importantly, for you.
I love you but "no."
These 5 words will change your life.
Promise.

Hi Mommas and Poppas,
Who knows what a "gobstopper" is? They are delicious candies that have multiple layers of different colors and flavors. The exterior color might be purple, but under the purple layer is red, and under the red is green, etc.
This week's tool is how to recognize EMOTIONAL gobstoppers. For example, Anger generally overlies the deeper feeling of hurt. Because we often hate feeling hurt, we often instead react with Anger because Anger feels powerful and aggressive. You certainly can coach on the feeling of Anger and transition into another feeling, but that's not the root feeling and so Anger and other negative feelings will likely continue to pop up in other parts of your life.
But if you can uncover the thoughts causing the deeper feeling of hurt, you can dissolve the anger and cure the underlying issue.
Ever had a week where you keep struggling with irritability, disappointment, annoyance, or anger? If you feel stuck in these emotions, consider that these patterns of emotions might actually be overlying deeper feelings and these deeper feelings are the root cause. Coach yourself on the root cause, and the negative emotion dissolves and you can unstick yourself. Click below to recognize emotional gobstoppers and know how to cure the root problem.

Hi Mommas and Poppas,
Today's show is about a magic trick that I totally forgot to teach you about it!
I use it as much or more than I use the model.
I have taught my 1:1 private clients, but I realized today that I haven't taught my dearest podcast listeners yet.
If you think you have heard it all, buckle up!
This magic trick takes a bit of practice to perfect, but it can take you from LIVID to LIGHT in about 3 minutes.
Wanna know the trick?
This episode will teach you to become The WATCHER of your brain.
Instead of being in the middle of a hurricane of feelings and reacting to life, try this fix!
You don't have to do ANYTHING.
You simply zoom out of your life and watch your brain work.
I liken it to putting my brain in the palm of my hand and watching it with as much love and curiosity as possible.
Some people like the analogy of watching your brain, sort of like you are watching a movie at the theater.
The key is to get some distance from your brain so that you can see the model play out in real-time.
The totally non-instinctual trick is that you have to NOT want to move forward at all.
Instead, be willing to sit in all of it.
Watch your brain from non-judgment.
That's it.
It sounds so crazy simple that you might not have ever considered this an option.
This is the magic.
Give it a try.
Want help becoming The Watcher in your own life? It does take a bit of practice, and having a guide is incredibly helpful.

Hi Mommas and Poppas!
This is a very special episode for our 50th episode and my 44th Bday.
In this show, you will learn how to Superwoman through any life challenge:
applying for promotion, resigning a leadership position, gearing up for negotiations, moving, asking for a raise, hosting the in-laws, or preparing for a divorce hearing.
The lesson is wrapped in an adventure at Sky Pond that involves all the usual dramatic elements of any great story: tears, a near death experience, adventure, a waterfall, a pregnant woman, and breath-taking views.
The punchline is that we sometimes will CHOOSE to do a challenging task.
The trick is to know that you can do it scared while ugly crying and climbing up a waterfall.
How?
Take a moment right now while you are safe and well-fed in the comfort of your car or office, and develop your life motto.
Remind yourself of your life motto as you prepare to do your new hard thing.
Here are some of my go-to life mottoes:
I know how to do hard things;
I never quit on myself;
This is my perfect life adventure;
I always figure it out.
Remember, you don't have to feel confident while doing hard things.
I rarely do.
Allow your life motto to help you tap into your commitment and courage.
Will it feel amazing?
Nope.
It felt awful for me.
And I did it anyway.
So can you.
Click below to access the drama and intrigue of how you too can Superwoman through ANYTHING!
Want help developing your life motto or preparing for your next hard thing? I have 3 free 30min mini sessions. Faculty-level woman physicians who are considering joining my coaching program UplevelMD are eligible to apply for a free 30min mini session at https://www.yourpathinfocus.com/30-minute-1-1-request.

OMG.

This episode is how to ditch the Dread and replace it with FREEDOM.
You are 6 steps away from dropping the Dread forever.
Secret 1: You can say 'No' to tasks that you don't want to do. The trick is to like your reasons.

When you decline, know that you are making someone else soooooooooo happy as they get to step into this new opportunity. Remember that you are gifting yourself a huge packet of FREE TIME. Win-Win-Win.
Secret 2: You can say 'Yes', just remind yourself that you are CHOOSING to do this task for a larger win. Empower yourself. Like your reasons so you can prevent resentment, overwhelm, and frustration after you accept. You are always winning. Win-Win-Win.
There are so many other tips and tricks to moving away from Dread into FREEDOM.

Dear Mommas and Poppas,
So many of my clients are struggling with fear right now:
applying for a new job, starting a new position, letting go of an old position, buying a house, sending a kid to college, approaching the empty nest, declining a job offer, starting a business.
If you've ever experienced fear, this episode is for you.
Ever been so afraid you think you might puke?
I mean so aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaafraid!?!?!
Of course you have!
We all have.
All humans have fear-- except maybe psychopaths.
Fear is a normal part of the human experience. The more you are willing to risk, the more fear you will have.
It's just not possible to get through this life without fear.
The problem is that most people let their fear keep them small, derail their dreams, and hold them back.
There is another way!
This week I almost died 1,700 times!
I was so scared to fail because I wanted the opportunity so much.
What if I humiliate myself?
What if I fail?
What if I don't get the position?
These thoughts were such a drag.
Then I thought, but what if I kill it!
So I did the task.
I did it SCARED.
Was it perfect?
Heck no.
But we can do hard things.
It wasn't med-school hard.
Doing hard things while scared is the definition of courage.
If it wasn't scary, we wouldn't need to be brave.
We need fear.
Fear keeps us safe and helps us grow to live extraordinary lives.
Fear is amazing.
Fear can come along for the ride-- it just can't drive the car.
Spoiler alert: I did the thing and I didn't die afterward.
In life, you get good at what you do.
If you hold yourself back because of fear, you get good at being scared.
If you don't let fear hold you back, you become FEARLESS.
What could you do if you were fearless?
Anything you want.

Mommas and Poppas,
Ever find yourself in the middle of a TRAINWRECK?!?
I sure did this past week.
And many of my clients come to me with a similar situation.
Can you relate to any of these?:
less than ideal board scores, not landing the dream job, the offer on the perfect house falls through, a loved one is ill, a new diagnosis, vacation is canceled, COVID-anything, lost money, passed over for promotion, or boss yells at you?
OK, well, this show is for you!
It has my best tips on how to actively get out of a trainwreck-situation.
I use my real-life drama this week as such a lovely example.
I originally wanted to title this show
"WTF: How to Get out of a MF Nightmare" but my husband said it had too many F bombs.
On the other hand, it was really that kind of 2Fbomb kinda week.
And this show is loaded with all the best tips how to turn a disaster into MAGIC!
Really.
This show just might blow your mind.

Hi Mommas and Poppas!
This show is totally lit!
I usually don't have any overlap between the podcast and my 30day coaching program (UplevelMD).
Generally, the podcast is the tip of the iceberg, and the 30day coaching program is the exclusive Premiere show with backstage pass, 1st class air fare, and luxury suite.
In the podcast I usually tell a story of my life and how I worked through an issue. It is fun and easy and light.
In UplevelMD, I teach you how I coach. You learn all the secrets, tips, and tricks so that you can take yourself to your dream life. I teach you MAGIC!
In this week's podcast, I share a clip from our weekly lesson. This is 1/100th of the UplevelMD experience.
Like what you hear?
Enrollment for August UplevelMD is OPEN!
30 days to uplevel your career, relationships, and life by working LESS!
There is no other program out there like this!
It is physician run, it exclusively serves physicians, and all teaching/coaching is with the main instructor (me!).
It is a 30 day program with a history of creating massive results with less effort: prior clients secured raises, leadership titles, changed jobs, negotiated for 6 figure raises, unloaded dumb work, secured more time-off, lost weight, got the best sleep of their life, healed their relationship with their toxic boss, found love for their estranged Mom, and more.
You get 30 days of support: weekly group calls, private coaching, and my phone number for in between session support, a digital library, workbooks, and more.
Half of the seats have been sold.
Don't wait.
There will be a wait-list for September.
Reserve your seat now.
Once you enroll, you get access to the Digital Library: precourse materials, June UplevelMD, July UplevelMD, and bonus workbooks and webinars. You can schedule your four private 1:1 and start videomessaging me TODAY!
You've already done June UplevelMD? Perfect, we are covering all-new material in August.
Haven't done June UplevelMD? Perfect, we are covering all-new material in August.
Check with your center to see if they'll cover the cost; check with your CPA to see if this is tax-deductible.
You are just a few thoughts away from upleveling EVERYTHING!

Hi Mommas and Poppas,
Today's show is ripped from my diary from this week.
Anyone have deadlines that you absolutely dread?:
Submitting a presentation, drafting a paper, scheduling a meeting with a boss, arranging a car oil change, cleaning the basement, or going to see Mom?
I had this deadline that was hanging over my head for a year.
A year!
It was a constant, annoying buzzing from a bee that was inside my brain.
I just didn't want to do it!
It was sooooooooooooo boring.
I haaaaaaaaaaaate making powerpoints.
I would rather do ANYTHING else.
I procrastinated on it for a year.
This show is how I got it done FAST anyway.
In the end, it took about 2 afternoons.
When I submitted it, I felt AMAZING.
I found all this time, energy, space, and freedom.
Wanna know how I went from DREAD to DONE?
Check out this episode!
It will change everything.
Like what you hear? Come to my free Masterclass on going From Dr. Overwhelm to Physician Freedom in Four Steps: Return to you. One hour just might change everything: secrets to amazing sleep, stop letting your schedule ruin your life, dealing with idiots, feeling good enough, and having enough time.

Hi Mommas and Poppas,
I am a terrible mom.
Really.
Ever had this thought?
It used to cause me so much pain.
I thought I didn't work hard enough at work as my male colleagues with no kids (as if our work quality has anything to do with the number of hours we work).
I thought I wasn't a good enough mom because I wasn't at all the school functions and didn't enjoy toddler parties.
I thought something must be wrong with me since I don't LOOOOOOOOVE being a mom all of the time:
I hated the newborn days, wasn't a fan of the toddler years, and I didn't do vomit clean up.
Everything changed the moment I realized that I am a 50-50 mom.
I am 50% amazing and 50% a hot mess as a mom.
I have raised fiercely independent kids (amazing!) and I also prefer Netflix over the toddler years (hot mess!).
About my thought that good moms love being around their kids all of the time?, I decided that was a lie.
Good moms loving being around their kids about 50% of the time.
And What if that is not a problem?
What if you are doing it ALL exactly right?
What if you are the perfect mom for your kids, and they are the perfect kids for you?
This show could change everything.
Like what you hear? The podcast is the Cliff notes, and the 30-day coaching program is the full-length movie with a backstage pass and exclusive look into my coaching tools, tricks, and secrets. August UplevelMD is filling NOW! While I haven't officially opened enrollment, I am letting people who are 100% all-in secure their spot. There are limited seats left.

Dear Mommas and Poppas,
I think about quitting medicine most days.
I first thought of quitting medicine before I started medical school.
If you have been in medicine long enough, you also have likely thought about quitting medicine.
I used to think this thought meant that I was a mess and my career was dumb.
This show is about what to do with this thought.
Check it out to learn the following:
Why you have this thought;
what function it serves;
why you don't quit;
how to make big decisions;
how to know when you've made the right decision;
and what to do next.
This show is so extra-lit! Make sure to share it with your friends, family, and enemies.

Today’s show is about how to find your most painful core beliefs AND how to thrive with them.
It will blow your mind.
We all have one core belief that comes up multiple times a day x our whole lives.
It is a little different for each person.
You have thought that thought so many times that you may not even recognize it, which can make it difficult to move forward.
Common core beliefs include the following:
Everyone hates me;
They don’t understand me;
I’m not loveable;
They don’t work hard enough;
No one appreciates me;
I don’t have enough money;
I don’t have enough time;
I’ll never be good enough;
She’s toxic;
Life is unfair;
I’ll never get ahead;
I wasted my life.

Hi mommas and poppas!
I went to my own funeral last week.
This episode discusses what I learned.
It brought deep connectedness and joy.
I shed layers that I had outgrown.
I dropped belief systems that, while familiar, I had recognized that they no longer served me.
I moved toward freedom.
I choose me.
I gave up fighting reality.
Spoiler alert: I came to peace with that I DON'T deserve to be full professor.
How do I know?
Because I am not full professor.
And that's just perfect.
It really is because it feels like freedom.
Now, some people will pick professorship because that choice feels like freedom to them.
And that is just perfect too.
I coach many clients to achieve promotion faster by working less.
The point is to carefully examine the costs and benefits and choose in the direction of you.
There is no wrong choice.
There is only the choice you made and then 100% believing it is the next best decision.
This episode is about freedom.
Find out how you can get more freedom by clicking the show.

Hi mommas and poppas!
We hit 8,000 downloads: Woohoo!
Today’s episode is for inquiring minds!
We will deal with all the questions that you have been thinking but haven’t asked.
This is a really fun session.
Here’s the dish: I gave the #5Secrets Masterclass to 4 different groups over the past few weeks, including surgeons, pathologists, pediatricians, and family practioners, among others.
They had the best questions!
I saved the best questions and will be fielding them today!
Here’s a sample:
-Can life be better than 50-50 with coaching?
-If not, what’s the point of coaching?!?
-How can I manage my mind when the news freaks me out?
-How can I figure my way around a toxic person who won’t change his mind?
-I am in a terrible job and I can’t figure out how to be happy.
-Does coaching mean we always have to make our current situation work? What if I want to leave my husband?
-How do I know if I should stay or leave a job?
-I have to close my notes in 24hours because it is the law. I feel terrible because of these rules!
-My partner works 2.0FTE and everyone thinks he is the best. How can I be a part of the group and not work 100s hours a week.
-What if my boss doesn’t give me credit?

Hi mommas and poppas!
I have a confession: I cried at work.
Here’s what you might not know: everyone cries at work at some point!
Why?
Because we are human and we care so deeply about others.
What do we make it mean?
We usually are ashamed of ourselves for crying, especially if others see our emotions.
We beat ourselves up for crying, which only layers on more pain and shame.
There is another way.
This episode is how to turn your tears into your North Star.
As Martha Beck says, people don’t cry when they lose their humanity, they cry when they find their humanity.
Your tears mean that you are human and you are connecting with your core truths.
If you can open up to the tears with love, be curious about your emotions and thoughts, your tears can reveal your inner truth and guide you back to your path.
After you allow yourself to cry, you might feel emotionally exhausted or a pure sense of peace and stillness.
The act of crying is a tremendous stress reliever.
Click on the podcast for all the secrets to how your tears are your Northstar.
Find your way back to yourself.
It is a beautiful thing, if you let it be beautiful.

Hi mommas and poppas!
Did you know that you don’t have to do anything?!?
You don’t have to pay taxes,
stay married,
pay your bills,
do the laundry,
call your mom,
take care of your kids,
or go to work!
Isn’t that amazing?
You really don’t have to do anything.
So you might be able to guess the answer to
the most common question I get:
what is my approach to work-life balance or work-life integration?
My answer?
I don’t believe in any of those lies.
I’d rather be The Boss instead.
It is So.Much.Better.
There is no guilt at all.
It is 100% freedom.
This show is for you whether you have kids or not.

Hi mommas and poppas!
This week’s #YPIF on “Girrrrrrl, Life is More than Diamonds & Doggies: A YPIF Escape Hatch for When to Ditch Coaching” just dropped and it is the last thing you would expect a coach to discuss!
Ever.
And that's why it is sooooooooooo good.
Not everything needs a model, thought work, journaling, and a tissue box.
Sometimes we just need to boss through an issue with decisions and massive action.
Check out the episode to learn the 3 major categories for when I ditch coaching.
If you think you know everything about coaching (or not!), this just might blow your mind.
Share the show with you friends, mentees, and enemies!

Hi mommas and poppas!
This episode is about what to do if you find yourself hanging by a toe on a cliff (or a metaphorical cliff in your academic career).
We spent Spring break in Moab, Utah scaling near-vertical hiking trails that were so steep we had to hold on with all 10 fingers.
Sometimes we had to drop to our bottoms to scoot and slide down a stretch or crawl across a narrow bridge.
I learned that my son and I are a little bit scared of heights!
And, boy, there were cliffs all around us.
No safety net.
No guard rails.
This felt a lot like academic medicine.
Here are a few of the lessons that helped us scale the narrow arches (and my own academic career):
Focus on the ground below your toes; Avoid looking too far ahead or below you; Take one tiny step at a time; Forget the “how”; The “how” will reveal itself once you arrive; Until you arrive, all you need is courage and commitment; Be willing to drop to scoot on your bottom and hold on with all 10 fingers; The view is spectacular and totally worth it!
For all the gems and jewels, check out this week’s show.
Share the show with you friends, mentees, and enemies!

Hi mommas and poppas!
This week’s podcast is on my most common client concern: “I am not good enough”
This is a powerful thought that shows up in all parts of your life: I am not good enough pathologist, mother, daughter, friend, or wife.
This podcast unravels this thought error.
It explains why you have this belief,
It shows you how expensive it is,
and it provides tools so you can start believing “I am good enough.”
You have one life.
You were given this body, this life, this family, and this job for a reason.
Take care of all of it.
Make the hard choices in honor of you.
Build your dream career one hard decision at a time.
Sleep more. Leave early. Have an adventure. Work less. Watch more Netflix. Play more board games. Laugh as much as you can. Read for pleasure.
Brene Brown says “it take courage to rest and play in a culture where exhaustion is seen as a status symbol.”
I’m not good enough.
Are you willing to be wrong about that?
What would you do if you really believed you were good enough?

Hi mommas and poppas!
This week was supposed to be in-person pathology meeting.
But all in-person meetings were canceled this year.
So were trips and vacations and adventures.
In this episode, I share my best tips for dealing with COVID canceled meeting related-disappointments.
Such great tips for dealing with setbacks and obstacles of all sorts.
Check out this show to see the magic and miracle of it all.
Maybe, just maybe, it was always supposed to be this way.
Maybe, just maybe, the next time we are in person will be more spectacular than ever before because we had time to reflect and miss each other.
Maybe, just maybe, the days in between meetings will continue to be sweeter because we were forced to slow down.
See you at the next in-person meeting, if it is meant to be.

Hi mommas and poppas!
Today I share with you my Epic Fails and How To Rewrite History.
Can you see me blushing from where you are? I am totally blushing!
Doctors are terrible at failing.
We tell ourselves we have to be perfect, and that a fail means we are a failure.
But what if we are wrong?
What if fails teach us how to become the best version of ourselves?
What if we all fail simply because we are humans?
This episode teaches us how to fail harder, fail forward, and fail gloriously.
It teaches how we can rewrite history so that a fail is translated into a powerful step toward our best next version of ourselves.
To be a better doctor, parent, partner, and human.
Live Big.
Fail Often.
Learn Always.
Let them be wrong about you.
Choose you first.
Maybe this is how it was always supposed to be.
Maybe Nothing has gone wrong.
Maybe This is what life looks like right now.
And now what?

Happy Valentine’s Day Mommas and Poppas!
Today we tackle one of the most powerful ways to upgrade everything in our life:
applying the laser focus we have for making academic deadlines to our relationship with ourselves.
Stop rushing and chasing CV items, the boss’s praise, and other forms of external validation to prove our worth and to feel of value.
You were born 100% valuable.
Unless and until you develop a capacity for unconditional love for yourself, you are operating at a fraction of your productivity.
In today’s show, we talk about how to develop unconditional love for yourself so you can never fail, you enjoy exactly where you are, you stop doubting yourself, and you apply all that extra energy and time to create your ideal life.
Make full professor faster with LESS work and without sacrificing you.
Want love in your life? This episode shares the recipe.
Want 24 red roses on Valentine’s day? This episode shares how.
You are everything.
