- Medicine
Dr. Whitney Casares is a private practice pediatrician, American Academy of Pediatrics author, and a mom to 2 young girls in Portland, Oregon. She says that her kids are her best teachers, but that she also went to school for forever. After completing her undergraduate degree in journalism, she completed her medical school training at the University of Vermont and pediatric residency training at Stanford University. She also holds a Masters of Public Health in Maternal and Child Health from the University of California, Berkeley.
Whitney said that after her daughters were born, she got lost in their needs and let hers fall to the wayside. When she went back to work postpartum, life got even more complicated as she layered on more responsibilities and added more to-dos. She had to dive deep to redefine what it means to be a successful mom. By flipping the switch and investing in her own social and emotional health, she stopped just surviving motherhood and started thriving.
