Ep167| Your Job Is Not Your Worth: Rebuilding After a Layoff

Thu, 28 May 2026 05:00:00 -0400

Millions of people have lost their jobs in the last several months. And for many, it is not just the paycheck that is gone, it is their sense of self.

In this week's episode of Happy Without Medicine, we are talking about the identity crisis and self-worth spiral that comes with job loss, why your worth was never in your title in the first place, and practical steps you can take to start rebuilding your income and your confidence, even if you have to start "small".

This one is for the corporate professional who is sending out resumes and hearing nothing back. The breadwinner who is lying awake running numbers. The high-achiever who does not know how who she is anymore outside of her job title.

You are more resourceful than you know. And this season is not your ending.

Enjoy the episode.

Ep166| From ER Doctor to Mental Health Therapist: 5 Lessons From Building Something New

Fri, 22 May 2026 05:00:00 -0400

There is a version of me that almost didn't start my practice. No business plan. No blueprint. No five year vision. Just breadcrumb clues and the courage to follow it.

In this week's episode of Happy Without Medicine, I'm sharing five lessons from three and a half years of building and running my mental health practice, and why this Mental Health Awareness Month feels especially meaningful as I step into a brand new chapter.

Whether you are building a business (like I did), pivoting your career (like I also did), or sitting on a dream that has been waiting long enough (I did this one too!)... this episode is especially is for you!

Ep165| The REAL Reason You Can't Say "No"

Thu, 14 May 2026 05:00:00 -0400

You've said yes when you meant no.

And now you are sitting in a stew of resentment and wondering how you got here.

Well, today we're talking about guilt... specifically the guilt that comes with saying no and setting boundaries.

Because guilt and resentment are two sides of the same coin, and you get to choose which one you sit with. Will you choose the temporary discomfort of guilt, or permanent dysfunction of resentment?

Ep164| 5 Things Nobody Tells You About Reinvention

Thu, 07 May 2026 05:00:00 -0400

Reinvention is rarely as glamorous and polished as people make it seem!

Mostly, reinvention looks like hesitating, starting and stopping, questioning yourself, outgrowing old identities, and gradually becoming someone new before anyone else can see it.

In this episode of Happy Without Medicine, I discuss 5 things nobody tells you about reinvention. These are lessons I learned through my own journey from ER physician to mental health practice owner, speaker, therapist, and entrepreneur.

If you’ve been feeling restless, unfulfilled, or aware that something in your life needs to change, this conversation is for you.

Ep158| Why High Achievers Start Projects and Don’t Finish Them

Thu, 19 Feb 2026 05:00:00 -0400

You are not lazy.

You are not incapable (in fact you are very intelligent, if I must say!)

And you are definitely not unserious.

So why do you keep starting things… and not finishing them?

In this episode of Happy Without Medicine, I kick off The Momentum Series, where I unpack the reasons high-performing women get stuck.

From fear of failure (and fear of success), to relying on motivation instead of structure, to trying to build in isolation...

If you’re surrounded by half-finished projects and big potential, this episode is for you.

Ep157| When Your Marriage Feels Heavy (But Your Goals Still Need You)

Thu, 12 Feb 2026 05:00:00 -0400

Valentine’s Day isn’t always chocolates and roses.

You love your spouse… but if you’re honest, things feel tense and off track.

In this episode of Happy Without Medicine, I’m speaking to the ambitious woman whose marriage feels heavy right now but whose life, goals, and calling still need her.

We’ll talk about:

Why conflict isn’t the problem (avoidance is)
How to use “I” statements instead of blame
And how to keep building your dreams without denying the tension at home

Of course, this is not a replacement for counselling. But if you’re navigating a hard season and need a little perspective (and a dose of tough love), this one is for you!

Your feelings in your marriage are real, but they aren't the end of the story!

Ep 156| Signs You Are High-Functioning... But Not "Okay"

Thu, 05 Feb 2026 05:00:00 -0400

You’re working, parenting, caregiving, putting a brave face on, managing life....

You’re showing up. You’re high-functioning.

But deep down inside, you know something feels off.

You’re not in a crisis.

You’re not falling apart.

But you’re also not okay.

In this week’s episode of Happy Without Medicine, I discuss important signs you shouldn't ignore and how stress and nervous system activation show up in everyday life.

Ep155| Moving Past The Regret of "Wasted Time"

Thu, 29 Jan 2026 05:00:00 -0400

"I should be further along by now" is a common thought that can weigh us down with unnecessary regret.

In this week’s episode of Happy Without Medicine, I’m reframing the idea of "wasted time."

We often judge our past selves for seasons that weren't wasted at all because they were spent surviving or seeking clarity.

In this episode, we explore:

Survival Mode: Why "autopilot" is a necessary tool to prevent a total system crash.
The Seeking Trap: How searching for permission and perfect clarity can keep us stuck.
Avoidance vs. Laziness: Why procrastination is actually a strategy to cope with the discomfort of change.

It’s time to trade your regret for grace and learn how to invest your time moving forward rather than just spending or "wasting" it.

Ep147| Fear In Disguise as "My Personality"

Thu, 06 Nov 2025 05:00:00 -0400

Have you ever wondered if the thing holding you back isn’t actually your personality, but fear in disguise?

So many of us say, “I’m just quiet,” or “I prefer to stay behind the scenes,” when what’s really happening is that fear has learned to sound like temperament.

Ep47| How I Create Breathing Room in My Life

Tue, 02 May 2023 05:00:00 -0400

One of the complaints that I hear from my patients is that they just don't have any breathing room in their lives because their days are packed full of activities between parenting and work. Being a wife, being a daughter of aging, parents who might need medical attention, some of them run multiple businesses.

They are community volunteers. They're leaders in their churches. They're also working on their relationships with their friends or their siblings. They are working on their finances, on their health and wellness. They are showing up to our therapy appointments every week. These women have full, full lives and one of them, Actually made a comment to me a few weeks ago when she said, your kids are so young, you're so busy.

But every time we meet you make it look so easy. And I've been asked several times, how do I do it all? And in this episode, I'm actually going to share some of the things that have helped me crawl out of that exact same place of being so overwhelmed, so much so that my hair was falling out.

I hope you enjoy this episode and you find it helpful.
