Balance takes effort, plain and simple.
It’s something you build, one choice at a time. And for many women in medicine, the blueprint they were handed never included room for school drop-offs, sick days, or space to breathe.
Today, I’m talking with Dr. Sarah Slater, a pediatric nurse practitioner and founder of Balanced Kids, who has reimagined her career so she can show up fully for her patients and her family.
We discuss the real possibility of building a practice around your values and the small shifts and decisions that will make a big difference.
This is what a true work-life balance for doctor moms can look like, without burning out or giving up what you love.
If you’ve been craving more breathing room in your work and your life, this one’s for you.
