The Modern Mommy Doc Podcast

Wouldn’t it be great to find a podcast for the Modern Working Mom that addresses life as a mom, life as a working mom with an ambitious career and life as a mom who wants to also have time for her own life? That is what the Modern Mommy Doc podcast is all about.
We live in a world where we are supposed to raise kids as if we don’t work and work as if we don’t have kids (and don’t even mention that we may also want to fit in some time for ourselves to read a book or take a SoulCycle class.)
Everyone has an opinion on what it takes to be the perfect Working Mom in today’s society. Most of the advice is unattainable, anxiety-provoking and certainly doesn’t address how the modern working mom is supposed to make time for her own life. The Modern Mommy Doc Podcast helps working moms say “no” to unrealistic expectations for a perfectly-balanced life and say “yes” to what really matters. You’ll hear inspiring interviews with experts in each of the core areas modern working moms who parent with intention know are critical for success –dreaming big, spending time on things that matter, making space for themselves, investing in their mental and physical health, parenting in partnership, and being intentional about the way they parent their kids.
Your host is Whitney Casares, M.D., M.P.H., F.A.A.P. She’s a Stanford-trained, board-certified pediatrician, author, speaker, blogger @modernmommydoc, mom of two and avid Peloton-er. Drawing on her own experience as a working mom in the modern world, she’s curated a group of expert guests to help you find the credible advice you’re looking for when it comes to taking care of your child, your career and yourself.
We live in an era filled with so many questions around Working Mom Life and finding balance. On the Modern Mommy Doc Podcast, you’ll find the focused answers you’ve been looking for to truly have it all.

Self-Care Without Collateral Damage Nov 24, 2022

Show notes

We have to start differentiating between coping in ways that will cause harm to us and our family and self-care. True self-care is about taking care of yourself in the most intimate ways and building connections with yourself to understand who you are.

What if we changed the narrative from “Self-care isn’t selfish” to ““Self-care doesn’t have to be selfish”? Because as a maternal and child public health expert, I’ve absolutely seen it turn that way.
