Stories brought me back to medicine. As doctors and mothers, we are in the business of stories. Stories connect us and tell us we belong. I hope you find some piece of yourself reflected in this community.

This essay is as true today as it was when I wrote it a few years ago.

When I wrote it, my editor asked me “Dawn, are you sure you want to share this?”

Why does a doctor’s pain go unnoticed? It’s because we are too afraid to be vulnerable.

Daily practice.

Small steps.

Move forward.

Better than yesterday.
