In today’s episode, I’m sharing my story. How my husband and I met right after high school, navigated long distance through college, and eventually finding ourselves building a life around medicine.

From weekend visits and FaceTime calls to medical school, residency, and now life in Lynchburg, VA as a wife and mom. This episode is a real, honest look at what it’s like to grow up alongside someone chasing a career in medicine.

We’re talking about:
• What no one tells you about being in a relationship with someone in medicine
• The shift from “normal life” to the unpredictability of med school + residency
• Learning to build your own identity while supporting your partner
• The emotional, funny, and very real moments behind the scenes

This podcast was created to give a voice to the people behind the doctors — the spouses, partners, and families living this life every day.

If you’ve ever felt proud, overwhelmed, lonely, or just confused by this lifestyle… you’re not alone. And you’re in the right place.

I’m so glad you’re here 🫶🏻
