Dr. Susan Landers had it all. A brilliant career in neonatology in the NICU unit, a supportive husband, also a doctor, and three children. It was wonderful, and sometimes, it was far too much.
Today, Susan is the author of So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood.
You will learn:
- Attempting to give 150% to parenting and your profession will lead to burnout
- Work- life balance is a myth when in a full time demanding profession while parenting a young family, according to Susan. At best, it’s a challenging juggling act.
- Pushing back against perfectionism is key to having a healthy life.
BIO: Dr. Susan Landers is the author of So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood. A retired neonatologist who worked at the NICU for over thirty years, Susan enjoys reassuring younger mothers today that they can be a “good enough mother,” rather than becoming consumed with perfectionism.
