160. How to Stop Pretending You’re Fine with Dr. Erica Howe
Episode description
Do you ever catch yourself pushing through exhaustion, pretending you're fine, or feeling guilty for even thinking about taking a break? This week, I’m resharing my conversation with Dr. Erica Howe, founder of the Women Physicians Wellness Conference, to explore what happens when we let go of the habit of keeping up a facade.
Dr. Howe shares her personal story of feeling overwhelmed, the pivotal moment that changed her perspective, and why she created WPW as a space for women physicians to connect, strategize, and break free from isolation. We discuss why exhaustion and shame often go hand in hand, how community is the antidote, and why rethinking selflessness can transform both your work and personal life.
