Send us Fan MailWhen was the last time you actually saw your own doctor? If you just cringed a little, you are exactly who this episode is for.I take care of a lot of physicians in my practice, and I have heard every version of the story: self-prescribed thyroid meds, skipped physicals, and a very impressive collection of coping strategies that are working just well enough to keep going. I get it because I live it too. But there are things I say to my patients, including my physician patients, that I want to say directly to you.In this episode I walk through 10 things I would tell you if I was sitting across from you in the exam room. Some of them are the basics you already know and are not doing. Some of them are the harder truths about rest, stress, and the lie we have all been sold about what it means to handle everything. And one of them is about Botox, because we need to have that conversation.This is not a lecture. This is what peer-to-peer honesty sounds like when your doctor actually knows what your life is like.Hit play. You have earned this one.If this resonates and you want support actually living it, let's talk.
