Ep. 56 The Hour That Changes Everything: Why Time Investment Matters for Physician Moms
Hey doc!
Can we talk about time? Not the "how to manage it better" conversation - we're going deeper today. I'm sharing how one hour of intentional investment changed my life from running on empty to actually enjoying each moment.
In this episode, I take you through:
- My journey from 60-hour workweeks to intentional living
- The real reason why "I don't have time" isn't serving you
- My transition from skeptical to transformed CEO of my life
- How investing in yourself creates space for joy
- The ripple effect of intentional time investment on you and your whole family
Key Takeaways:
- Time investment works like exercise - it gives back more than it takes
- True CEOs don't do everything - they make strategic choices
- Support systems multiply your time, not drain it
- Growth requires intention, not just better scheduling
- Peace comes from purposeful choices, not perfect planning
This episode is for every Physician mom ready to move beyond survival mode and create space for authentic joy in their lives.
