š©š»āāļøš¤°š»Am I a doctor or a mom? Lately, this question has been on my mind more than ever. If youāve noticed my absence here, itās because life has thrown some big changes my way, and Iāve had to take a step back to focus on what truly matters. Hereās the raw, honest truth behind my social media silence: 1ļøā£ I made the bittersweet move from Costa Rica to Boise, Idaho. More on that adventure laterā¦ 2ļøā£ Iām navigating the incredibly hard and painful path of separating from my husband and going through a divorce. 3ļøā£ My mental and physical health has been on a rollercoaster as I process everything life has handed me. 4ļøā£ Iāve made the decision to dissolve Free Range Psychiatry. This wasnāt easy, and itās a choice full of mixed emotions, but itās one that had to happen for my own mental health and healing. Iāll be sharing more about this decision and what it means in the coming weeks. 5ļøā£ And perhaps the most life-defining changeāIāve stepped fully into the role of a single mom. Being a doctor is a deep part of my identity and something Iāll never give up. But right now, being a mom is what my heart needs most. Some days are messy, some overwhelming, and itās far from Instagram-perfect. But itās real. Itās me. āš¼This chapter of my life is about resilience. Itās about prioritizing my mental health and rediscovering who I am, one step at a time. And while itās hard, itās also a lesson in strength, in love, and in learning to show up for myself and my kids. šš¼For anyone out there feeling lost or overwhelmedāyouāre not alone. And for those still here with me, thank you for your patience, kindness, and support as I figure out this season of life. More stories to come, but for now, Iām just a mom, holding on tight to my kids and to the small joys of each day. š
