➡️ The internal drivers beneath the surface: self-criticism, guilt, fear, and feeling out of control.
➡️ Why so many physician moms say, "I don't recognize who I am anymore."

➡️ Cindy's powerful message: "You are enough. You have the power to make decisions that can improve your life."

If you've been carrying a quiet tension between medicine, family, and yourself—this conversation is your invitation to pause.
