How do you define perfectionism? Is it an inherent trait, or a learned behaviour? Is it something to be fostered, or could it be fear masquerading as high standards?
Dr. Sarah Lea muses on these thoughts and more, on this episode of The Expanded MD Podcast. She reflects on her own journey, how embracing vulnerability and authenticity has shaped her life, and how redefining her relationship with her own perfectionism has created psychological safety and connection for herself and others. She reflects on the benefits she's experienced with this approach in her parenting, professional life, and friendships - and by the end of this episode you may just also be inspired to do something radical - embrace imperfection.

In this third and final installement of the opening series about "Who is Dr. Sarah Lea," we close the loop on what brought Dr. Lea to face away from medicine in order to better see herself. Navigating a demanding panel of positions within family practice, maternity care, addictions medicine, multiple leadership positions, entrepreneurship - and the collective trauma brought on by the COVID-19 pandemic to top it all off - Dr. Lea realized that at this phase in her life, what she cared most about was also the most neglected.
Too many of us take the best of ourselves to work, and leave the rest at home. Sarah is seeking to end that by exploring multiple paths, both within and without. From the significant decision to close her family practice, to discovering the benefits of physician coaching, exploring alternative healing modalities like meditation and sound healing, and her commitment to a balanced life prioritizing her role as a mother, join Dr. Lee as she seeks to bridge the gap between medical science and spiritual wellness, advocating for integrative approaches to healthcare - for herself, and for you. www.drsarahlea.com
