Summary:
In this episode of the Happy Gynecologist, Amanda discusses the importance of confidence for OB-GYNs, emphasizing that confidence is not an innate trait but rather a skill that can be developed through practice. She outlines three key truths about confidence: it is a practice, it is not dependent on being liked by everyone, and it is heavily influenced by self-talk. Amanda encourages listeners to embrace discomfort, accept rejection, and cultivate positive self-talk to enhance their confidence in both personal and professional settings.

Summary: In this episode, we discuss the concept of 'old belief stress' and how it can cause anxiety and stress in our lives. Old belief stress refers to the stress that arises when we try to make changes or take actions that go against our old beliefs and training. Amanda even shares a personal experience of feeling stressed when her schedule changed and she had fewer patients. She explains that this stress comes from old beliefs that we have internalized and need to change in order to create a healthier mindset. The host emphasizes the importance of examining our beliefs and replacing old beliefs with new ones that align with our goals and desires.

Summary:
In this episode, Manda discusses situations where people lose their cool and question whether they are the asshole. She reassures listeners that they are not assholes and explores the underlying reasons for losing one's cool. Manda emphasizes the importance of giving oneself grace and understanding the fear and perfectionism that often drive anger. She also encourages listeners to apologize and express appreciation to those affected by their outbursts. Manda addresses two specific scenarios: losing one's cool with a medical assistant and responding curtly to a comment from a scrub tech during surgery. She provides insights and strategies for handling these situations with empathy and self-reflection.
Takeaways:
Losing your cool does not make you an asshole; it is often a result of stress, exhaustion, and a lack of resources. Give yourself grace and kindness for the challenges you face in your work and personal life. Anger often stems from underlying fear and perfectionism; acknowledging and addressing these emotions can help manage anger. Apologize and express appreciation to those affected by your outbursts; there is no expiration on appreciation, apologies, or explanations. In challenging situations, separate the words of others from your own self-worth and focus on finding solutions. Acknowledge the difficulty of a situation and remind yourself that you can handle hard things. Develop a mantra or phrase to help shift your mindset and maintain confidence in stressful situations. Reach out for support and guidance when facing challenging scenarios; there are resources available to help you navigate difficult emotions and interactions.Chapters

Summary: In this episode, we discuss the topic of perfectionism and its downsides. I will share my own personal experiences and observations of perfectionism in the medical field.
As we work through perfectionism, I encourage you to question your own perfectionist tendencies by using empowering questions to challenge your own thoughts.
Takeaways:
Perfectionism can have downsides and lead to burnout. Questioning perfectionist tendencies is important for personal growth. Asking for help is not a sign of weakness, but a demonstration of leadership. Trusting others and delegating tasks can improve outcomes and allow for better use of one's strengths.Links Mentioned in Episode:

Takeaways:
Forgiveness is a powerful tool in overcoming burnout. Forgiveness is not about condoning the actions of others, but about releasing negative emotions. Forgiveness is a kind and loving act that benefits ourselves, not the person we are forgiving. It is important to forgive ourselves for mistakes and traumatic events to avoid self-blame and burnout. Practicing forgiveness can help us move forward and find healing. -

We are very Capable people as OB/GYN's, right? We get more shit done in a day than most people do in a week.
However, sometimes we confuse our Capability with our Capacity to get things done, especially when we are Burnt-out.
Just because we have the Capability to do ALL-THE-THINGS, it doesn't mean we have the Capacity to do ALL-THE-THINGS.
