Love Lab MD with Dr. Kate Mangona

Dr. Stephanie Byerly is an academic anesthesiologist, Certified Life Coach, and published author. And she helps women physicians take back control of their lives. I invited Dr. Byerly to be a guest today because she has experienced many challenges in her own life including childhood trauma, divorce, becoming a single parent, dealing with the addiction of a loved one, and physician burnout, and has an incredibly powerful outlook on life I wanted her to share with us today. Dr. Stephanie is the loving mother of two daughters ages 25 and 26. Our paths have crossed multiple times as we work for the same university hospital and were trained at the same life coach school as well are both active in an online group of physician entrepreneurs called Leverage and Growth Accelerator.   #TraumaAdvice #howtodealwithtrauma #controlyourself #singleparent #howtoovercometrauma #whattraumadoestoyou?   www.stephaniebyerly.com  IG:@stephaniebyerlymd LINKED IN: @stephaniebyerlymd

SHOWNOTES: Dr. Liz Treynor is a pathologist by day and mental health warrior by night— or really just a human at all times, trying to normalize discussions about mental health among women physicians. Meeting her in Tahiti and chatting it up in the airport on our way to Bora Bora as part of the Empowering Women Physicians Coaching program (which ALL physicians need to experience) solidified my love for this magnificent ball of energy! Liz’s passionate soul is infectious. I feel like she could be the next President of the USA although during our interview, her hubby Dr. Chako said they would try to divulge just enough information to disqualify them from the race!!!! LOL These two are a HOOT!!! They talk about their ex’s in a very honest, affectionate, and functional way. This is better than the last stand-up comedy show I saw by Adam Sandler! I am not kidding!!! Dr. Treynor gives us her best sex tips and especially as it relates to mental health; however, the emotional depth this couple takes us to in under one hour is mind blowing. This is a MUST LISTEN!!!!! I KNEW it needed to be episode 100!!!! This is definitely a celebration of love, life, and life-long learning. I cannot thank Dr. Liz and Dr. Chako enough for the vulnerability and love they poured forth.

Dr. Chrissy Guidry, after 4 years of medical school, completed 8 years of residency and fellowship training to become a Trauma Surgeon. She achieved double board certification in General Surgery and Critical Care Surgery. During her training, she often thought, "Once I get a job as a real doctor, I will be successful and then be happy." She believed that everything would be more fulfilling once she completed her training. However, a few years after finishing her training, she realized there was still something missing. She discovered that achieving happiness was a prerequisite for a successful career. Dr. Guidry learned that pursuing happiness is an intentional practice. Through studying and making active changes to her daily habits, she now experiences a life of abundant happiness, which she views as the true success in life. She now teaches this philosophy to her colleagues, believing that tapping into the best version of themselves enhances their ability to "docere" (from the Latin word meaning "to teach" and the root of the word "doctor") in their medical practice.

Meet Dr. Seema Desai, a former dentist turned success coach, residing in Austin, Texas, where she balances her roles as a wife and mother alongside her professional pursuits. Driven by a passion to empower outwardly successful leaders to find fulfillment from within, Seema's journey is rooted in breaking free from traditional definitions of success instilled by her hard-working Indian immigrant parents. Raised to equate success with achieving societal benchmarks—becoming a doctor, earning well, and starting a family—Seema initially fulfilled these expectations, yet internally felt unfulfilled and stagnant. Despite her life appearing picture-perfect on social media, she sensed a profound misalignment with her true desires. Recognizing this disparity propelled Seema towards a transformative shift. By delving into the core of her discontent, she began to cultivate a profound sense of inner peace. This newfound clarity not only enhanced her roles as a mother, wife, and professional but also opened doors to unprecedented opportunities that her previous mindset would have deemed impossible. Her journey began with a fundamental shift in perspective, illuminating how her preconceived notions limited her capacity for genuine happiness and personal growth. Through this introspective process, Seema discovered a path to limitless and authentic happiness uniquely her own. Website: https://drseemadesai.com/

In this episode, Dr. Manish, shares the story of his relationship with his wife, Seema and how they have intentionally designed a relationship where they each have more than enough “free time”. From their first encounter, where Manish impulsively embraced Seema despite having never met her before, Manish knew she was special.  Dr. Desai reflects on the initial attraction, drawn by the alignment of their backgrounds and values. Although their chemistry was real, Manish admits that the early years of their marriage were marked by disagreements rooted in their differing family dynamics—Seema's reserved upbringing contrasted with Manish's more vocal background.  Trough introspection and mutual growth, they have navigated challenges such as Seema's post-partum depression and the pressures of their demanding schedules.  Together, they discovered the importance of prioritizing wellness and lifestyle over financial gain, finding joy in shared activities like workouts and walks. Ultimately, their story illustrates the power of love, authenticity, and the journey of self-discovery within a marriage, culminating in a symbolic helicopter ride representing their united journey through life's highs and lows.
