Pregnancy and the first year of motherhood are hard enough, but doing it while caring for patients, managing procedures, and answering pages? That’s next-level strength.


This isn’t just about balancing schedules. It’s about redefining success, setting boundaries, and finding grace in the chaos. It’s about pumping between hospital rounds, surviving night shifts with a newborn at home, and learning that “self-care” isn’t selfish, it’s survival.


If you’ve ever wondered:

  • How do I manage nausea during a 12-hour shift?
  • What’s the reality of postpartum recovery when your job requires stamina and precision?
  • How do I handle mom guilt when my pager goes off during bedtime?

…then you’re not alone. And you’re exactly who we wrote this for.


✨ Coming Soon: The second book in “A Working Mom Series"—Navigating Pregnancy Through Baby’s First Year as a Working Mom in Medicine.


Because you deserve honesty, humor, and practical strategies for every stage, from that positive test to baby’s first birthday.


Follow along for sneak peeks, real-life tips, and a roadmap for thriving in both roles. Mama, you’ve got this!!

Countdown to our Book Launch! 

Some days, you feel like a superhero balancing patient care, deadlines, and parenting wins like you were born for this. Other days? You're just trying to remember where you put your coffee, and praying no one notices you have mismatched Danskos on. This journey of being a working mom in healthcare is messy, exhausting, and absolutely worth it.

The Challenges:
🔥 Leaving home before the sun rises, knowing you won’t be the one to do morning snuggles. 
🔥 Trying to be fully present for patients, even when your toddler did not sleep the night before. 
🔥 The guilt—oh, the never-ending guilt—when work takes priority and you miss a milestone. 
🔥 Mastering the art of speed-charting because daycare pickup is non-negotiable. 

The Wins (Because We Need to Celebrate More!): 
🌟 Using your skills to heal and help people, while still being the glue that holds your family together. 
🌟 Watching your child learn strength, compassion, and resilience from seeing you work hard. 
🌟 Finding a community of incredible, driven moms who remind you that you are not alone.
🌟 Finally, learning that success doesn’t mean doing it all perfectly, but doing the best you can, one day at a time.

Some days, I feel on top of the world. Some days, I just survive- but both days matter. 

And that’s exactly why our upcoming book, Navigating the Lifecycle of Working Moms in Healthcare, exists—to help working moms in medicine thrive, despite the madness.

If you’ve ever felt stretched too thin, exhausted, or questioning how to make this work, this book is for you.

To all the working moms out there, especially in healthcare: You are doing enough. You are more than enough. 💛 

What’s the biggest challenge (or win!) you’ve had as a working mom? Let’s remind each other we’re not alone in this. 

With Much Love, 
~Lisa.

Introducing: Navigating the Lifecycle of the Working Mom in Healthcare


A Working Mom® Series

How to Plan a Successful Book Launch


Over the course of the next few weeks, we will provide tiny glimpses into our upcoming 1st book. We plan to release a series of books that will help our fellow working moms navigate the ups and downs of balancing successful careers in healthcare with raising a family (whether you are a surgeon, a midlevel practitioner, a dentist, a nurse, or any other much needed technician that we rely heavily on in our healthcare systems. 

 

From tips and tricks for better organization, finance advice, quick meal ideas, nutrition and wellness advice, and pep talks when you need them most (because admit it, we all need those every once in a while). 

 

We plan to release a series of books, in addition to grow our merchandise line, cultivating unique luxury products every mom will love, and design luxury destination seminars (that we are currently working with the American Medical Association) to obtain Category 1 CME for health and wellness lectures that can enhance not only our own lives, but also the lives of our family, friends, and patients. 

 

So, when you are boarding your plane, Sonoma Valley-bound, for some anticipated collegial lectures, combined with relaxation, private yoga sessions, and incredibly crafted meals paired with local wines (if interested), know that you will return to your family and careers relaxed and recharged, with an arsenal of information intended to keep your mind and body balanced, while moving forward.

 

And when you start to feel that calm collected feeling start to fade……. you will then book your next trip! 😊


Future Trip Locations include: 

 *Monterey/Carmel/Napa/Sonoma (California)

*Sedona/Scottsdale (Arizona)

*Big Sky (Montana)

*Jackson Hole (Wyoming)

*Las Vegas/Lake Tahoe (Nevada)

*Key West (Florida)

*Charleston (South Carolina)

*Lake Placid (New York)

*San Antonio/Austin (Texas)

*New Orleans (Louisiana)

 

We can’t wait to have our community of healthcare working moms join us on this new adventure! So stay tuned, more to come soon!
