Becc and Kristeen Barker dive into the challenge of balancing your dedication to being a great doctor with the other important aspects of your life - in particular, they delve into the common conflict between being a 'good doctor' and a 'good parent' or 'good partner' . They discuss how the pressure to meet the 'good enough' threshold can lead to feelings of failure and guilt, and offer practical solutions for creating a life you won't regret. Here are some key takeaways: Feeling like you're failing in one area of your life (work, relationships, etc.) is common for doctors. Rigid ideas about what it means to be a good doctor can limit your choices and flexibility. Watch out for common thinking traps such as over-generalisation leading us to believe that we aren't doing enough. Consider a longer time frame than just one day when evaluating your failure or success when it comes to meeting your standards. Identify where you want to set boundaries so you can show up fully in all areas of your life. Are you struggling with work-life balance? Share your experiences and challenges in the comments below!
