Doc, U R... Visionary
Description
The Doc, U R… Podcast aims to empower physicians (from medical school and beyond) and combat the stigmas surrounding their mental health and diminish physicians affected by limiting beliefs, working small, and burnout. We will start with the women doctors in our lives and provide conversations geared towards female physicians, but understand this is not just about female physicians.
The objective of the podcast is to de-stigmatize physician mental health. The goals are to humanize physicians, empower female physicians, and bring awareness to their healing needs. The theme this season is “Navigating Mental Health & Medicine: Defining Burnout, An Occupational Hazard.”
This week, Dr. Kiki talks with Dr. Whitney Casares on being a mother alongside being a physician. Dr. Casares is a private practice pediatrician and a mother of two. She completed her medical school education at the University of Vermont and her pediatrics residency at Stanford University. She also holds a Masters in Public Health in Maternal and Child Health from UC Berkeley, and holds an undergraduate degree in journalism. After neglecting to take care of herself postpartum and experiencing a decline in mental health, Dr. Casares learned to redefine success for herself, leading her to thrive in motherhood. She helps other professional women do the same, and has authored a book on the subject: The Working Mom Blueprint.
In this episode:
- Turning off your inner critic
- Streamlining your life by knowing what things matter to you
- How burnout affects motherhood
Enjoy as Dr. Casares talks about keeping the bigger picture in mind.
