Happy In Medicine with Dr. Christina Arnold

4: NotThe Boss’ Fav? It’s A Good Thing...

Sure, being the boss’ favorite has its perks.
Of course, it’s fun. Except when it’s not.
If we only feel good when the boss is gushing over us, we DON’T learn the skill of how to take care of ourselves.
It’s easy to feel forgotten when we aren’t mentioned at faculty meeting…when she does NOT stop by to say Hi…or when she stops nominating us to her friends.
The solution is NOT to work harder.
You work hard enough.
The solution is to become YOUR own favorite person.
You won’t learn this skill at your wellness trainings. You didn’t learn this in med school. No one is teaching this at your center.
You can learn this skill here in this week’s podcast.
When you have this skill, you’ll feel better.
Listen to this podcast TODAY and feel better TODAY.
I designed it to give you INSTANT wins.
When the boss gushes over the new hire at the faculty meeting, you’ll know how to take care of you.
When the boss doesn’t stop by to check in, you’ll get home faster and be glad for it.
When the boss doesn’t nominate you, you’ll find other ways to get invited speakerships.
This one skill will make your life better IN EVERY WAY.
Teach this skill to your partner and kids and their lives will be upleveled too.
HEAR THIS:
It’s a good thing that you aren’t your boss favorite.
Being your own favorite is WAY BETTER.

3: When The Boss Has Favorites & You Aren’t One of Them

Your boss has favorites.
You aren't one of them.
All senior leaders are white men.
You aren't.
These differences CANNOT hold you back from asking for a better schedule.
You CAN ask for what you deserve No Matter What.
Start with agreeing with yourself: Your boss has favorites, you aren't one of them, all senior leaders are white men. These are FACTS. Don't make yourself wrong. Your brain is right about ALL OF IT.
Now we get to work on getting what you deserve.
Agree with yourself. Support yourself. Make yourself right.
This will create instant relief. This opens up energy that you can direct to getting what you deserve in less time than you think.
Action is so much easier when you are on your own side.
Here's another fact: you can get what you deserve no matter what.
It's all right here in this week's episode.
Click the button below to get what you deserve even when you AREN'T the boss' favorite.

2: How to Be Enough

Stop waiting on the boss to tell you that you work hard enough.
It's not happening. No matter how hard you try.
You could sleep 5h/night, go to all the grand round lectures, host all the faculty candidate dinners, go to each holiday dinner at her house, write 9 papers a year, miss your own colonoscopy to pick up a service day, and she will still have ideas on how you can do more. She might even suggest you delay your promotion by a year so your colleagues don’t feel jealous. True story.
Of course it would be amazing for her to say, “Congratulations you have done enough. You should slow down and rest- you earned it!”
BUT, since she won’t EVER say this, the solution is to DECIDE that you are enough.
“You ARE enough” is a DECISION you get to make.
You are enough.  Just as you are. Without any more papers or dinners. Exactly as you are right this second.
You get to believe whatever you want about yourself.
DECIDE that you are enough.
Believing that you are NOT enough, will have you waiting for the boss’s approval (it’s not coming), overworking, and skipping your own colonoscopy.
Believing in yourself is actually LESS work.
When you believe you are enough, you’ll feel better, lighter, and your mind will be clearer.
You’ll get more done in half the time.
You’ll have more time to snuggle the kids.
More time to do nothing in particular.
Empty, white space. Open calendars. NO meetings.
It starts with DECIDING you are enough just as you are.
From this place you can create more, if you want to. But this is where you start. This is where you bring your brain back to when you are feeling sad, defeated, or small. Come back to this place right exactly here.
You ARE enough.
Just as you are.
Just EXACTLY as you are.
Don’t miss this week’s podcast. You’ll learn how to do be enough WITHOUT working harder.
