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