The Mirror Moment: What I saw in a Chicago hotel room and why I couldn't look away

In this episode of The Brave Enough Show, Dr. Sasha Shillcutt discusses:  The unedited, unpolished version of what burnout looked like for me  The overfunctioning pattern of what it actually feels like to be boundary-less, saying yes to everything  The biggest promise I made to myself, and how it changed everything.  How I got well, kept my promise, found health and joy — then discovered something no one had warned me about.   "The version of me that had dreams and desires and knew what she wanted had quietly left the building while I was busy meeting the expectations of everyone around me. I didn't have the words for it then. I just knew that I looked fine. I looked successful. And I did not recognize myself." - Dr. Sasha Shillcutt   Brave Enough 2026 CME Conference For ten years, women have gathered at the Brave Enough Conference to step away from the demands of medicine and into a space of renewal. This anniversary year, we celebrate a decade of empowerment and sisterhood—ten years of lifting each other up, reigniting purpose, and remembering that none of us has to do this alone.
