Eat when you can, sleep when you can, pee when you can.

Does this sound familiar?

This phrase is a war cry for busy physician moms who barely have time to sit, let alone warm up food or find a bathroom.

It is also a perfect catchphrase for describing scarcity mindset for physicians.

This mindset is indoctrinated in medical students the moment they set foot in a hospital – and it goes far beyond medical training. It’s woven in the fabric of who physicians are and blends seamlessly with the slew of parental responsibilities.

The scarcity mindset is a belief that resources and time are limited and won’t meet our needs or goals.

It often leads to feelings of inadequacy, competition, anxiety and exhaustion.

There is a way out. There is a counterbalance.

It’s time to put this war cry to rest and feel better. This is the topic for today’s episode.
