Show Notes
What if the way you treat yourself after a mistake is what keeps you stuck? In today’s episode, Dr. Tarryn MacCarthy shares a powerful reminder for high-achieving women in dentistry and healthcare. Self-criticism does not help you grow. It can raise stress, drain your energy, and pull you back into habits you are trying to change.
After losing 25 minutes to Instagram instead of her morning routine, Dr. Tarryn catches herself before shame takes over. She shares how self-compassion can help you reset, feel calmer, and show up with more strength for your patients, team, family, and yourself. If you care deeply, expect a lot from yourself, and feel tired of never being enough, this episode is for you. Press play before your inner critic starts another shift.
