What happens when you overcome an extraordinarily difficult childhood, become a successful physician, raise two daughters and discover that you're still living in survival mode?Dr. Stephanie Byerly grew up surrounded by instability. Her father left when she was just two years old. Her mother struggled with mental illness and married five times. Stephanie experienced sexual abuse, grew up on welfare, and started working at 15 to help pay the rent.Later, she married, had two daughters, and found herself in an abusive relationship. After divorcing, she was responsible for raising her girls.Having been a sick child herself, Stephanie was inspired to become a physician. She went on to build a successful career as an anesthesiologist.But despite everything she had accomplished, something wasn't working.Stephanie began recognizing that she wasn't showing up as the leader she wanted to be. She was reactive, constantly operating in fight-or-flight mode, and carrying the effects of trauma she hadn't fully understood.So she began looking inward.As she explored her own trauma and how it had shaped her reactions, relationships, and leadership, she discovered something life-changing.She didn't have to keep living that way.Today, Stephanie helps other high-achieving women recognize when they're operating in survival mode and discover new possibilities for themselves.This is a powerful conversation about childhood trauma, resilience, self-awareness, and the freedom that can come from understanding ourselves.You can be successful on the outside and still be struggling on the inside. But it doesn't have to stay that way.Dr. Stephanie I. Byerly, MD, FASA, ACC, TIPC, is an anesthesiologist, certified life and leadership coach, keynote speaker, and founder of The UNNUMB Method™ and The UNNUMB Coaching Collective™.After 25 years in academic medicine, Stephanie turned her attention to helping high-achieving women, particularly physicians and leaders, move beyond chronic stress, burnout, and survival mode.Drawing on her medical background, personal experiences, and trauma-informed coaching training, she helps women reconnect with themselves and develop healthier approaches to life and leadership.For more information, please visit:stephaniebyerly.com_______________________________________Hilary's Website: https://www.gettingrealwithhilary.com/YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@GettingRealWithHilary Spotify: https://shorturl.at/pQY68 iTunes: https://shorturl.at/qyTZ3 BBS Radio: https://bbsradio.com/thegettingrealwithhilaryshowE360tv: bit.ly/TGRWHS#GettingRealWithHilary #HilaryBurns #DrStephanieByerly #ChildhoodTrauma #TraumaHealing #TraumaRecovery #SurvivalMode #FightOrFlight #WomensLeadership #LeadershipCoaching #PhysicianBurnout #HighAchievingWomen #TraumaInformed #SelfAwareness #Resilience #EmotionalHealing #PersonalGrowth #OvercomingAdversity #TheUNNUMBMethod #S8EP9 #NervousSystemHealing #BreakingTheCycle #WomenEmpowerment #BurnoutRecovery #LeadershipDevelopment #HealingJourney #PersonalTransformation #FromSurvivingToThriving #AuthenticLiving
