Dr. Landers' mother completed her master's degree in library science and  worked  full time as a school librarian in the 1950's and  60's long before that was the norm for  women/mothers. "My mother grew up on a farm, lived through the Great Depression and met my dad, a WWII veteran after the war," says Landers. "She was a natural born giver, always looking after the needs of others," say the doctor.One family tradition that Susan embraced while growing up, was the daily family dinners.

When you were little did anyone ever ask you, “What kind of friend will you be when you grow up?” or “How will you create joy when you grow up?” or “How will you be healthy when you grow up?” I didn't think so. But I bet you can remember being asked, “What do you want to “be” when you grow up?” This is the moment it started. When you knew that your job would be the most important part of who you are. It was the point when you were told your work would be the most important thing. And there was a clear path. Get good grades, go to college, and get a “good” job. Work hard, get promoted, and do NOT screw up this part of your life.  Because this is who you are.  If you screw it up, everything comes crashing down. Because everything in your life depends on work.  People decide what kind of person you are based on what you do. So it determines relationships and the opportunities you have. And then there's the obvious. It puts a roof over your head, food in your belly, and clothes on your back.  Making sure you do it RIGHT and do it well matters. So you work your butt off, proving yourself day in and day out. Making sure you never make a mistake. Making sure there is never a reason to let you go.  And before you know it, the job has become all of who you are. No other aspect of you matters. The part of you who is a good friend or partner takes a back burner. The part who likes to dance and see live music gets put in the closet. The part of you who is healthy and takes care of your body is abandoned on the side of the road.  You spend late nights and weekends working.  And little by little your friends stop calling. Anytime you have off is spent “recovering” from the long work week. More Netflix binges with a pint of ice cream in hand. And even if you have a partner, life starts to feel more and more lonely.  If this sounds like you, you're not alone. The most common regret people have as they get older is that their life revolved around work instead of the things they love.  But when most people try to pull back and create more “balance,” it sends them into sheer panic. What good is it to spend more doing things you love when the whole time you are stressing about work? This is why I love doing my podcast. I get to share stories of people who've overcome that panic. So that you know that it can be done!  This week I speak with Author and Neonatologist, Dr. Susan Landers. She is a determined, high-achieving, trailblazer who let work become her whole life. An episode in her early 40s gave her the opportunity to step back and figure out a new way of relating to work and the other roles in her life.

Have you – or someone you know – had ‘working mother' burnout?  Dr. Susan Landers is a neonatologist who worked full-time in the NICU for over 30 years and raised three children. She achieved many academic and professional accomplishments, and she encountered challenges along the way, both in her career and in her mothering. She achieved many academic and professional accomplishments, and she encountered challenges along the way, both in her career and in her mothering. Susan suffered through one difficult period during her midlife, after the birth of her third child, that propelled her to make specific choices and a career change.  She loves to share stories that reassure younger mothers to know that they, too, can become  “good enough mothers” even if they work full-time. She supports mothers with her social media posts, her blog, and her newsletter. Are you trying to be a "Super Mom" or a good mother? During her interview, Dr. Landers shares how to identify and recover from working mother burnout: Checklist for Working Moms   So Many Babies describes one overworked physician-mother as she journeys through medicine and motherhood raising three children. While practicing medicine in the NICU full time for over thirty years, Susan Landers, MD met and managed many trials raising her three children, trials typical for many working mothers, such as breastfeeding, sibling rivalry, bedwetting, dyslexia, a gifted child, ADHD, a dog bite, and an adolescent eating disorder. The challenges of full-time practice and many twenty-four-hour shifts in the high-stress NICU always complicated issues with Susan's children but also provided her the privilege of caring for thousands of critically ill newborn infants. Susan always felt that her career and accomplishments in medicine were equally as rewarding as raising three children. It was the constant attempt to balance these two worlds – physician and mother - that was so daunting a task. Susan believes that most, if not all, working mothers are similarly challenged as they attempt to manage their work and being a good mother. So Many Babies describes Susan's experiences of finding resilience and endurance throughout her career as a physician and mother. It is an entertaining and reassuring story for working mothers.

Her friend, a retired psychiatrist, explained that doctors often struggle to stop doctoring, and Dr. Landers realized she missed caring for people. So, she started writing about her experiences and memories of her patients and their families in a memoir called So Many Babies.The memoir explores how Dr. Landers balanced her career while raising three children and being a wife. In it, she talks about the importance of taking care of oneself, communicating in her marriage, and the value of having support from people at work. By sharing her experiences, Dr. Landers produced a book that reassured other working mothers that it's okay to find balancing everything difficult and to learn how to take care of yourself to do so.Dr. Landers' story is inspiring because it shows the power of perseverance and how pursuing one's passions can lead to great achievements. She turned her retirement into a labor of love and a way to impact the lives of other working mothers. As Armand Morin would say, "If Dr. Landers can do it, so can you!"Dr. Susan Landers discovered the term "generativity" to describe her desire to use her wisdom and experience to give back to others. As an older person with experience, she believes she can help younger people avoid making mistakes and increase their knowledge. In addition to writing her book, Dr. Landers has created a website that supports working mothers with an active newsletter, blog, and social media presence. She is also developing an online course for working mothers who need help balancing their job, children, marriage, friendships, and elder care. Dr. Landers has personal experience caring for her parents, giving her the wisdom and experience she wants to pass on to others. She believes everyone is obligated to use their talents to help and serve others.Dr. Susan Landers emphasizes the importance of social connections and community support for working mothers. She believes asking for help is a sign of strength and essential to survival as a working mother. Dr. Landers admits that there is no balance for working parents, but it is more like a juggling act. She encourages working mothers to prioritize their job requirements and family needs, although it is not easy. Dr. Landers advocates for setting up a support system that includes friends, colleagues, neighbors, and family. She adds that she made her children a part of her work life and exposed them to what she did to make them proud. Dr. Landers advises working mothers to rely on their connections and community for help and guidance.To learn more about Dr. Landers and her programs, visit her website at www.susanlanders.com.

Hey Winner, How do you do it? That is a question asked of working mamas. How do I balance a career and a family. Can I have both? Do I have to pick? I'm here to tell you that you don't have to pick, and you can have both! Sometimes we have seasons where our work is a bit busier or our family life takes more of our time, but you absolutely don't have to – and shouldn't have to – choose. If you're feeling called into the workplace, you can create a work-life balance that is sustainable for you. Does it come with challenges? Oh yeah. What doesn't? Life is challenging! If you're called to be a stay-at-home mama, that's amazing! If you're feeling called to the workplace or need to be in the workplace, God will provide a way for you to be both a good worker and a great mom. My guest today, Susan Landers, is an example of being able to create a productive work life and great medical career while also maintaining her faith and guiding her children while they grew up in church. Spiritual growth has been a beacon in her journey, as she has had her share of challenges, including suffering through an episode of postpartum depression at the age of 40 after the birth of her third child, and having to work with her husband through a crucial time in their marriage.

Dr. Susan Landers spent 34 years as a neonatologist while raising children and being a wife to a pediatric nephrologist. She talks with Kim about the challenges of "doing it all" and the depression that set in about a year after her third child was born. Everyone else in her family was adjusting to life in Texas but she was not happy and didn't know what to do until a friend recommended she talk with a psychiatrist. This conversation led her to share about feeling like she was spinning plates and the simple question: "why don't you take down some plates?" Listen to the whole conversation about how to deal with feeling like we women have to do "all the things" and knowing when to take the time to take care of us. Susan gives us some great tips for how to accomplish this balance in our busy lives.

Hey Friend, Today, we are talking about a heavy topic that is near to my heart. As someone who dabbled in an eating disorder as a teen and then went on to have a broken and disordered relationship to food in my adult years, I am super passionate about helping our sons and daughters grow up to be healthy and have healthy relationships to food and their bodies. We are joined by Susan Landers who navigated this very thing with her own teen daughter. Susan shares her wisdom and experience as a mom, gives us some signs to look out for, and sheds some advice on what to do if we find ourselves facing the same thing with our own kids. A little info on our guest today:Dr. Susan Landers is a neonatologist who worked full-time in the NICU for over thirty years and raised three children to young adulthood. She achieved many academic and professional accomplishments, and she encountered challenges along the way, both in her career and in her mothering. Her children presented her with common problems and some not so common, such as dyslexia, ADHD, and an eating disorder. Susan suffered through one particularly difficult period during her midlife, after the birth of her third child, that propelled her to make specific choices and a career change.

Have you experienced burnout? Feared you never get it all done and you're screwing up everything? Dr. Susan Landers is a retired neonatologist who practiced full-time in the NICU neonatal intensive care unit for 34 years while also raising three children. She suffered "physician burnout" but she managed to overcome it. Today, she helps others regain passion for their purpose.  In this episode, we discuss the alarming rise in the rates of physician turnover, burnout, working parents, postpartum depression, lactation, kangaroo care, the stress of premature birth, and how to regain your balance when you stumble emotionally. Learn more about Dr. Landers and her latest book "So Many Babies" on her website https://susanlandersmd.com/

Dr. Susan Landers is living proof that caring for others starts with caring for ourselves. After 20 years as a neonatologist (pediatric intensive care doctor), she began to feel unmotivated and exhausted. She was burned out. Raising children and caring for sick babies became unmanageable. So she rethought it all. Her memoir, “So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career & Motherhood” reminds us that behind the scenes of many professional women lies self-doubt and struggle—and that vulnerability is the birthplace of health. In this episode, Dr. McBride and Dr. Landers discuss their shared experiences of juggling motherhood with their medical careers and their insights on preventing burnout.

@drsusanlanders https://susanlandersmd.com/   Girls who grew up in the 1950s Deep South had little to no cultural nudge to pursue a career in any field, let alone in medicine. This story of Dr. Susan Landers' ability to catapult herself into the world of top-notch academic medicine while mothering 3 children amidst the twists and turns inherent in her physician husband's own advancement is truly something to behold. Did I mention after moving cross country with three little ones, she also pioneered a grant funded Mother's Milk Bank and eventually led the Section for Breastfeeding at the American Academy of Pediatrics? So Many Babies were lucky to have a doctor with so much grit.   Prominent themes in the daily lives of doctors and mothers are the themes of Susan Landers' life: Teaching and Quality Improvement. And she dealt with complications in both. From navigating complex workplace issues beyond patient care to managing crises at home including accidents, behavioral issues, unfathomable nanny emergencies and the teenage years in general. Susan has seen more than her fair share, and So Many Babies is her love letter to any mother tackling medicine and motherhood together.   As she deftly navigated medicine and motherhood, I would argue Dr. Susan Landers is not “Good Enough Mom” as she had to sometimes convince herself, or even “Super Mom” as her husband and children dubbed her one Mother's Day with a glittery homemade broach, but actually "Wonder Woman” complete with bullet proof arm cuffs, a golden lasso and that trulsty invisible jet we all used to want to ride in. Truly, Susan is a superheroine. Not only did she use her super powers to nutture her own 3 children at home, not to mention the countless tiny ones she healed in the NICU, but she shares them again today in So Many Babies as she reassures today's Dr. Moms by revealing her own truths and vulnerability   From Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and self-imposed time-outs to sewing Halloween costumes and eventually sending herself monthly bouquets, Dr. Susan Landers offers today's moms in medicine plenty of actionable ideas to ‘heal the healer' as she explores the fine line between a complete devotion to her patients and the insidious way a medical career can overtake marriage and family life.   After completing medical school in Charleston, South Carolina, Susan moved to Texas and completed pediatrics residency at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas, and neonatology fellowship at Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine in Houston. Dr.Landers practiced full-time neonatology (the intensive care of critically ill premature and newborn infants) for thirty-four years. Initially she worked in academic medicine, on the faculty of two medical schools, Baylor College of Medicine and University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences. Later in her career, she worked for Mednax, a private neonatology practice in Austin, for twenty-two years. Susan raised three children while practicing medicine full-time. Her children presented her and her physician husband with many challenges over the years, trials and struggles which she considers typical for all working mothers. She wrote a book about her experiences: "So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and  Motherhood." For many years, Susan worked for the American Academy of Pediatrics as an expert in breastfeeding medicine, writing policy and teaching at national conferences. She has been interviewed by many news outlets about her work using donor human milk in the NICU and her work with the Mother's Milk Bank of Austin. She currently resides in Austin, TX.

In this episode, I'm glad to be joined by my guest – Susan Landers; we talk about the NICU, trauma, and being a working mother. Dr. Landers practiced academic neonatology for fourteen years and served on the faculty of two medical schools – Baylor College of Medicine, in Houston, and the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, in Little Rock. In this role, she conducted clinical research, published twenty-three peer-reviewed papers, and taught medical students, residents, and fellows. While caring for patients in private practice, she served as a speaker for the Texas Department of State Health Services from 1997 to 1998. She was Medical Director of the Mothers' Milk Bank at Austin, from 2000 to 2004, and served on the milk bank's board of directors from 2006 to 2009. Are you the mother has a traumatic experience?

Are you a helicopter mama and you don't even know it? Is your most infamous line, “Be careful!” (okay, mine is too…). Is it hard to let your kids take risks, make mistakes, figure out their problems on their own? I brought Susan Landers back on today to share what we need to know as we raise a family and keep up a career, and we're also going to touch on some tips to overcoming being a helicopter parent. Any of you labeled as that? I'm sure my kids think I am. It's a hard balance, isn't it? But if we want to raise responsible and independent adults, we also need to learn how to hold our children loosely and not helicopter over their every move. How do we do this?  RESOURCES MENTIONED Susan's website: https://susanlandersmd.com Connect with Susan on Instagram @susanlandersmd Connect with Susan on Facebook @susanlandersmd Connect with Susan on LinkedIn @susanlandersmd Book: So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood: https://amzn.to/31Gg9nK CONNECT WITH ME Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/4mindfulmamas Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/gabecox_redhotmindset/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/redhotmindset

How do you do it? That is a question asked of working mamas. How do I balance a career and a family. Can I have both? Do I have to pick? I'm here to tell you that you don't have to pick, and you can have both! Sometimes we have seasons where our work is a bit busier or our family life takes more of our time, but you absolutely don't have to - and shouldn't have to - choose. My guest today, Susan Landers, is an example of being able to create a productive work life and great medical career while also maintaining her faith and guiding her children while they grew up in church. Spiritual growth has been a beacon in her journey, as she has had her share of challenges, including suffering through an episode of postpartum depression at the age of 40 after the birth of her third child, and having to work with her husband through a crucial time in their marriage.

Battling burnout, struggling to be a better mom, and finding balance are some of the biggest concerns of physician mothers. I'm so glad to share this conversation with an actual voice of experience, Dr. Susan Landers. She join me to talk about how she embraced “good enough,” embraced being a working mom, and found balance in her home and career.   Key Takeaways Take care of yourself.  Find out what makes you feel really good about yourself and really fulfilled, do that. A lot. Give yourself permission to do what fulfills you. Give yourself a pat on the back.  Have some self-compassion! We're too hard on ourselves as physician moms. You're going to be okay.   About Dr. Susan Landers Dr. Susan Landers is a retired neonatologist with 34 years of NICU experience. She practiced in academic medicine (on faculty of two medical schools) and in private practice. She has special expertise in breastfeeding medicine and human donor breastmilk banking. She currently lives in Austin, Tx. Susan raised three children (now all young adults) with her physician husband while they both practiced medicine full time. In her memoir called "So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood,” she talks about some of her best, and worst, life experiences, and how she managed to stay resilient. Susan enjoys sharing the things she learned during her journey as an ambitious, successful doctor who raised three children while working full-time. Susan attended medical school at the Medical University of South Carolina in Charleston and completed a pediatrics residency at the University of Texas Southwestern Medical School in Dallas. Her neonatology fellowship was completed at Texas Children's Hospital and Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.   On Struggling with Burnout and Balance Dr. Susan Landers begins our conversation today by sharing her experience of burnout. It's something she struggled through for much of her career in academia before choosing to set some boundaries that supported her as a mother, wife, and physician. She offers some advice for new and mid-career physicians from her experience tackling burnout. Susan gives some tips for how you can ask for help, especially when you're struggling to. We all know asking for help isn't the easiest thing to do! She also shares some incredible advice her therapist gave her about how many plates she's balancing and how that helped her realize what her priorities actually were. By focusing on what she could actually control, instead of all the things that were out of her control, Susan felt like she was better equipped to create balance in her life.   On Becoming a Working Mom One of Susan's biggest struggles was coming to terms with the fact that she was a good enough mom. There's so much pressure on working moms to be perfect in all aspects of life, especially as a mother and a physician.  After twenty years, she finally understood that she was a working mom and that that is a totally okay and acceptable thing to be. Now Susan's goal is to continue being good enough. We don't need to be perfect; we just need to be good enough. Finally, Susan explains how her supportive community and friends, the people outside her husband and children, are an essential part of creating balance in her life. She knows she can seek conversation, support, and advice from them whenever she needs it. Are you struggling with being the perfect mom and physician? It's so understandable. I would love it if you tried to adopt the “good enough” mantra this year and see how that changes your life. Let me know in the comments on the episode page what you're struggling with!   In This Episode  What new or mid-career physicians need to know about burnout [4:45] How to ask for help when you're struggling to ask [10:30] Why you need to realize what your priorities actually are [13:30] What happens when you focus on what you can control instead of what you can't control [16:30] The realities of being a working mom [21:00] How to be comfortable with your balance of loving your job and loving being a mom [24:00] Why a supportive community, outside your partner, is essential [26:30]   Quotes “Sometimes you have to make really big changes to see the light. To figure out what it is that your problem is.” [7:09] “You have to actually say to yourself, ‘Where do I fit in? What are my strengths? And where can they be used?'” [15:11] “I struggled to feel like a good enough mom for twenty years. It took me a long, long time, and my dear husband telling me I am a good enough mom, to feel that way. We work so much and we miss so much. We want to be involved in everything our children do, but we all love medicine and we love our job! We love taking care of other people, but we also want to take care of our kids. We're in a position our whole careers to not be good enough because we're doing other things besides being a mom. Just accept that who you are is a working mom.” [21:10] “I think the working moms, especially physician moms, try so hard to be good enough, but they need to stop and say to themselves, ‘I am doing the best that I can. I am a physician and I am a mother and I am doing the best job I can. I'm not going to be perfect but I'm going to be good enough.” [23:16]   Resources Mentioned Join G.O.A.L.S.

While caring for sick newborns and critically ill premature babies, Dr. Landers often worked more than sixty hours per week. At age sixty-two and seemingly without warning, her physical and emotional exhaustion ballooned.She is author of the new memoir So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career & MotherhoodToday we're going to talk about  the signs of burnout, the reasons why it can have long-term impacts on our individual health, as well as the health and productivity of our society, and most importantly, what we should do if we're feeling burned out by work. Connect with Dr. Susan Landers: https://www.facebook.com/susanlandersmdhttps://www.instagram.com/susanlandersmd/https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-landersmd/https://twitter.com/susanlandersmdhttps://www.goodreads.com/user/show/45507615-susan-landers

Dr. Landers' mother completed her master's degree in library science and  worked  full time as a school librarian in the 1950's and  60's long before that was the norm for  women/mothers. "My mother grew up on a farm, lived through the Great Depression and met my dad, a WWII veteran after the war," says Landers. "She was a natural born giver, always looking after the needs of others," say the doctor.One family tradition that Susan embraced while growing up, was the daily family dinners. She continued the tradition with her own family as she saw the true benefits of taking the time  to share each other's  day.The second oldest of four children, Susan  had a  sense of independence from  a young age.  She new she wanted to study and work hard and no one was going to talk her out of relocating for an opportunity to train for her medical career.Susan and  her mother didn't always see eye to eye and her father had a volatile personality.  Susan often wondered why her mother stayed with their dad and her response was "because I loved him."After many years of not truly understanding why Dr. Landers worked so hard, her mother volunteered in the NICU at a Florida hospital, helping and holding babies. She finally understood why her daughter was so passionate about her career.    Susan's mother died at the age of 97 but it took the death of Susan's younger sister for their relationship to be rekindled.
