Hey doc, welcome to a bonus episode of *Stethoscopes and Strollers*. Today, we're tackling a common but seldom-discussed topic in motherhood—the notion that struggle is a necessary part of being a good mom. Let's debunk this myth together.

Episode Highlights:

- Debunking the Glory of Struggle: We discuss the "Struggle Olympics" mentality where some moms glorify the hardships of motherhood, claiming these challenges make them stronger or closer to their children.

- Choosing Easier Paths: I advocate for choosing options that make motherhood more manageable, such as hiring a night nanny, opting not to breastfeed if it's too stressful, or getting an au pair to ease daily pressures.

- Setting Boundaries: Learn how to set boundaries with people who make you feel guilty for trying to lessen your struggles. It’s okay to seek easier paths and still be a great mom.

Key Takeaways:

- You Don't Need to Struggle: Being a good mom doesn't require you to endure excessive hardships. Embracing support and making choices that prioritize your well-being are not only smart but necessary.

- Ignore the Naysayers: If someone criticizes your choices or implies that struggling is the only way to parent effectively, it’s time to set boundaries. Protect your mental health and focus on what works best for you and your family.

Motherhood shouldn’t be a competition of who can endure the most. It’s about finding joy and balance in a way that suits you. If you’re feeling pressured to participate in the "Struggle Olympics," remember, that opting out is not only an option but can be incredibly liberating.

If this episode resonates with you, please share it with another physician mom who might be feeling the pressure to struggle unnecessarily. Your support can help change the narrative and support more moms in finding their path to a fulfilling and manageable motherhood.

Thank you for tuning in to this bonus episode of *Stethoscopes and Strollers*. Don’t forget to rate and review us—it helps us reach more moms like you. See you next time for more empowering discussions!

Join me for “Redefining Your Black Job: Physician Mom Edition” - an interactive workshop where we’ll examine which of these roles truly serve us and which ones we need to redefine - or release entirely.
I am hosting it twice and these are the two dates available:
📍Tuesday, February 18th @ 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT
📍Thursday, February 20th @ 8 PM ET / 5 PM PT
