My name is Jodi Ritsch and I developed the Evolving Physicians Program to help empower women physicians to transform their stressful, chaotic lives into more joy-filled experiences. Three years ago, like you, I was working longer and longer hours and getting less enjoyment out of any available time I was spending with my husband and four children. I kept running faster on the hamster wheel wondering why nothing was improving. I was caught in the “realize-ruminate” cycle. Identifying problems, worrying about them, re-identifying problems, worrying about them in a slightly different way but never making a change. I was definitely not taking care of myself and I began to struggle to take care of everyone else in my life.

Over the last three years, I have traveled to many Mind/Body/Spirit conferences and experienced a great deal of healing. I have been open to new ideas and willing to learn. At times, it has been exciting. At other times, it has been lonely and a bit scary. My dream for Evolving Physicians is to create and hold the space for healing for other women physicians.
