My hope is that these stories of remarkable women ignite a spark in you, remind you of your purpose, and encourage you to take bold steps towards your dreams.

    24| Redefining Cultural Expectations &Identities and Healing through parenting– A Conversation with Dr. Elsa John

    In this week's episode Dr. Elsa John, MD shares her journeyin medicine that took an unexpected turn. After facing years of infertility, they had a beautiful daughter but found out she was hearing impaired. Motherhood and Medicine collided, and Elsa speaks about the cultural pressures for SouthAsian women. How the expectations of excellence in higher education, career & motherhood changed when she finally became a mother. How her struggles with learning to care for her daughter drew her stronger in her faith.  Despite several accomplishments, she still felt the pressure as a South Asian woman, as an Indian woman with a medical degree.   In this powerful episode, Dr. ElsaJohn shares her experience and journey of motherhood, navigating the unique path of parenting a deaf child while balancing cultural expectations, personal identity, and her faith in Christ.  She opens up about her life’s journey, the emotional and spiritual challenges it brought, and how her identity in Christ became her anchor through seasons of uncertainty and growth. Dr. Elsa reflects on how parenting has reshaped her views on success, education, and healing, and how raising a child with different abilities has deepened her understanding of grace, patience, and unconditional love. We also dive into the importance of support resources for families navigating similar paths and how community played a vital role in her family’s journey. As an educator, writer, and advocate, Dr. Elsa unpacks the impact of cultural narratives on motherhood and how she’s found freedom in redefining success through the lens of faith, healing, and personal growth. Her story is a reminder of the beauty found in life’s unexpected turns and the strength that comes from embracing your God-given identity. This episode is a heartfelt conversation about motherhood in its many layers—pain, joy, hope, and healing—and the transformative power of faith and community. ▶︎Cultural pressures can significantly impact personal identity and expectations and perceptions of success.  ▶︎Cultural expectations often place undue pressure on women to perform in multiple roles. ▶︎Finding community support is crucial for parents of children with disabilities.  ▶︎Parents and children need encouragement and support.  ▶︎Identifying oneself solely by challenges can hinder personal growth and acceptance. ▶︎Recognize and appreciate your own journey and accomplishments. ▶︎Faith in Christ provides a foundation for identity beyond societal expectations. ▶︎The journey of motherhood can redefine career aspirations and personal goals. ▶︎Every individual has a unique purpose that transcends their challenges.  ▶︎Success is subjective and can be defined in many ways.
