As women in the workforce, especially in fields like medicine, we often feel pressure to go above and beyond and prove ourselves in order to be seen as equal to our male counterparts. But it's important to remember that it's okay to have limitations and to recognize the physiological processes that our bodies go through. It's okay to say no and prioritize our own well-being.
We must break the cycle of overworking ourselves and striving for perfection, and instead focus on finding a balance that allows us to thrive. It's time to challenge the societal expectations and norms that have held us back and embrace our strengths and vulnerabilities.
