Swallowing the mom guilt and going on the work trip and enjoying oneself while away is… hard but possible. Important. Do the thing, it’s good to be a real person sometimes outside of parenting responsibilities. San Diego you’re lovely 🌴 @sages.org @womensurgeons.bsky.social

1/ Pearls from yoga class... In between the poses in my Hatha yoga class that I went to this morning, we do Savasana The teacher is really good about emphasizing the importance of rest as equally, if not more important, than the asanas themselves

Almost two years ago I made a major career change It's take a long time to figure out who I am again, and I won't even pretend that I've gotten to the bottom of it But I'm rediscovering who I am and what I love outside of medicine

When a postop patient held my hands And told me “You have golden hands Which in my language means Your hands do what they were made to do well” I felt my restlessness melt And I smiled in gratitude behind my mask Her words healing me as well 🙏🏽 #medsky #surgsky #poetry #healthcare

Woke up the last two days 30 mins earlier than usual to try to write before work and my daughter like clockwork woke up before I could sit down to write. HOW do people with little ones get up early and write? I swear the little ones have an internal alarm 😂 #writers #writing #momlife #parenting
