Top 5 Obstacles That Challenge Our Optimal Health as Women Physicians
As I prepare for our 7th season of Transform®, I wanted to make sure that I was being excessively thorough in addressing the biggest obstacles Women Physicians face when trying to prioritize their own health.
Listed below are the obstacles that I hear again and again. And, our Transform® program addresses each and every one. If you are worried about “Time,” I want to reassure you that Transform® was strategically created for women physicians so that extra time is not necessary. In fact, you will create time in your life.
Look what Dr. BG has to say:
“Yesterday you said I am seeing results because I am so consistent, and what I wanted to share with you is that YOU have made it extremely manageable to be consistent in Transform by clearly being super thoughtful in how you laid it out.
I have three young kids, a full time job with 16 hours of volunteer clinic on top of it, and am getting my coaching certification, yet I truly do not have trouble finding time for Transform thanks to the way you have set it up with 30 minute workouts, coaching call replays, and the amazing Fit Collective app.
The program offers so much but the way it is distributed makes it so wonderfully consumable. So thank you again!!!”
Now, here are the other obstacles that we as Women Physicians face AND that Transform® creates strategies for.
Balancing Professional and Personal Life: Women physicians often struggle to find a balance between their demanding careers and their personal life. This can lead to stress, burnout, and a lack of time to focus on their own health and well-being.
In Transform®, we create a safe space for you to prioritize your mental, emotional, physical, and energetic health. In fact, we help you to say “No” to the things that are unnecessary and “Yes” to the things that fill you up. In Transform® you create beautiful boundaries to protect the life that you will curate, driven by your core desires.The Mental Toll: The high-stakes and emotionally draining nature of their work can lead to significant mental health challenges, including anxiety and depression. This emotional burden can make it more difficult to maintain healthy habits and routines.
In Transform®, we teach tools and strategies to help you optimize your ability to find emotional regulation so you can live a much more grounded and peaceful life. In fact, our strategies are cutting edge and adapted from DBT (dialectical behavioral therapy) techniques.Physical Exhaustion: Long hours, night shifts, and the physically demanding nature of their work can lead to chronic fatigue. This exhaustion can hinder their ability to exercise regularly and maintain a healthy diet.
In Transform®, we keep it simple. We will help you to work smarter, not harder to implement sustainable nutrition and exercise programming that will allow for more strength, energy, and favorable body composition. We teach you Mindful Macros® so you aren’t counting, weighing, or measuring, AND I lead you through every strength training session with my signature on-demand Mind-Body Workouts, which change each week.
In the 6-months, we will work out 72-times together and each workout offers a new coaching topic for inspiration. In 30-minutes just 3-times per week, you will work on your mental, emotional, and physical health. Our exclusive HardCore & Floor Series will help you to achieve more functional fitness so that you can prevent injury and set yourself up for long term success. Yes, you will carry your groceries when you are 90!Societal Expectations: Women physicians often face societal pressures and expectations that can add an additional layer of stress. These expectations can distract from their own health needs and may contribute to feelings of guilt when taking time for self-care.
In Transform®, we help you to see that taking care of you FIRST is non-negotiable. When you show up for you, you show up as the best version of you in all aspects of your life. And, when you feel guilty working out for 30-minutes rather than spending time with your kids… remember, your kids will benefit more when you are the optimal version of you!!Lack of Support: Many women physicians report a lack of support in their workplaces for their own health and well-being. This can range from a lack of understanding from colleagues to systemic issues within the healthcare sector that don't prioritize physician health. This lack of support can make it difficult for women physicians to prioritize their own health.
In Transform®, we reserve this program for women physicians. You will find the most amazing community of women who are all working toward the most optimal version of themselves. This creates a very high vibrational energy force. When we experience this, we become unstoppable and begin to believe that anything is possible.
