Rewriting the “New Year, New You” Narrative


New Year’s can be a surprisingly difficult  time, especially for women physicians who already carry a heavy load of responsibility, perfectionism, and self-judgment.


In this episode, I explore why the familiar “New Year, New You” energy so often leaves us feeling discouraged rather than renewed, and offer a more compassionate, sustainable way to reflect and move forward.


Instead of trying to wipe the slate clean or fix what feels broken, I invite you to think about your life as a story told in chapters; with you as the hero.



In this episode, we talk about:

• Why New Year’s resolutions often amplify feelings of lack and failure
• How “magical thinking” keeps us stuck instead of supported
• An alternative framework to reflect: viewing your life as a novel with chapters
• Common chapters many women physicians move through (training, parenting, burnout, transition, diagnosis, change)
• What shifts when you see yourself as the hero of your own story
• A simple reflective exercise to reframe the past year with more compassion
• Why it’s okay, and often necessary, to ask for support in the chapter you’re in

As Jeff Moore reminds us:
“You wouldn’t quit a show or a book just because the character hit a low point. You’d lean in to see how they rise.”


This episode is an invitation to do the same for yourself.



Ready for support?


If you’re tired of doing this reflection work alone and want help navigating the chapter you’re in with more clarity, self-compassion, and intention, I’d love to talk with you.
