Which Plate are You Spinning for YOU? with Dr. Susan Landers
- Which Plate are You Spinning for YOU? with Dr. Susan Landers Kimberly Benoy 35:05
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?”Â
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.Â
Susan loves to tell stories that reassure younger mothers to know that they, too, can be a “good enough mother” especially if they work full-time. She supports mothers with her social media posts and her blog. She also cautions physicians and nurses – who might be experiencing serious Burnout – about the ways in which it affects their lives and their Relationships, and the many ways to treat and recover from burnout. Her new book is “So Many Babies: My Life Balancing a Busy Medical Career and Motherhood.”
