Season 2 Episode 15: Building Confidence as a Healthcare Working Mother

The Successful Healthcare Working Mother Podcast

Welcome to episode #15 of the Successful Healthcare Working Mother Podcast, where today we’re tackling an issue that many of us silently struggle with: “Building Confidence as a Healthcare Working Mom”. Balancing the demands of a high-pressure job in healthcare with the never-ending responsibilities of motherhood can make you feel like you’re barely holding it together. You may find yourself questioning your abilities, doubting your decisions, and wondering if you’re enough—both at work and at home. The reality? If you don’t address these feelings of self-doubt, they’ll lead you straight into the jaws of burnout.

In this episode, we’ll dive into three essential areas to help you rebuild your confidence:

Main Points:

• Reconnect with Your ‘Why’ – Avoid Losing Sight of Yourself
• Stop Comparing and Start Owning Your Journey – Cut Off the Comparison Trap
• Build Confidence Through Action – Take Steps Before Burnout Takes Over

Actionable Steps:

• Take 10 minutes for reflection.
• Create a purpose reminder.
• Tie actions to your values.
• Limit social media.
• Define success on your own terms.
• Focus on your unique strengths.
• Set a daily challenge.
• Act like your future self.
• Create a confidence log.

By implementing these strategies, you’ll begin to build the confidence that will protect you from the symptoms of burnout—like emotional exhaustion, compassion fatigue, and even strained relationships. Reclaiming your confidence isn’t just about feeling better; it’s about preventing burnout before it takes control of your life.
