Today we are speaking with Author, Speaker and Neonatologist, Dr. Susan Landers. Susan Landers is a retired neonatologist with thirty-four years of experience practicing in the NICU full-time. She also raised three children to young adulthood. Dr. Landers is an expert in NICU medicine, breastfeeding medicine, and donor human milk banking. She served as a national speaker for the American Academy of Pediatrics. After retirement, she published a book about her medical career and motherhood experiences. She actively supports mothers on her social media accounts.

In this episode we discuss:

1) The demands on working mothers, combined with the pandemic and juggling all of the demands.  We talk about burnout, how to recognize it and how important it is to ask for and allow yourself to receive support.

2) How important it is for moms to share their stories, to normalize the struggles since the more we share our stories the more we can support others by showing them that they are not alone in their challenges.

3) The concept of fulfillment, seeking joy in our day-to-day, and how to drop or manage the expectations that we continue to place upon ourselves.
