One of the hardest parts of working in psychiatry isn’t just treating symptoms—it’s helping women unlearn the things they’ve been told for years.

That needing medication means you’ve failed.

That becoming a mom means feeling anxious or unlike yourself is just part of the job.

That if it’s hormones, there’s nothing you can do.

That you should just push through.

The truth is, mental health is rarely that simple.

Every woman brings a different story, different experiences, different biology, and different goals to treatment. That’s why the best care starts with curiosity—not assumptions.

If you’ve ever believed one of these myths, you’re not alone. We hear them every day.

And one of the best parts of our job is helping women realize they don’t have to keep believing them.

Which myth have you heard the most?

Somewhere along the way, a lot of us learned to measure a “good” day by how much we got done.

We optimize our mornings. Track our workouts. Turn hobbies into goals. Feel guilty when we’re resting. And sometimes even the things we do for ourselves become another box to check.

But not everything that’s good for us has to produce something.

Play matters. Fun matters. Laughing until your stomach hurts matters. Doing something simply because you enjoy it matters.

Kids seem to understand this instinctively. They don’t need every moment to move them closer to a goal. Sometimes they’re just completely present in something because it’s fun.

Maybe we could learn something from them.

You don’t have to earn joy.
And joy doesn’t have to accomplish anything to be worthwhile.

The internet will have you thinking better mental health starts with waking up at 5 AM, drinking green juice, meditating, journaling, cold plunging, taking 14 supplements, getting 10,000 steps, and somehow “reducing your stress.”

And listen — I love a good routine. I believe in movement, sleep, nutrition, boundaries, and taking care of yourself.

But your mental health does not need to become another full-time job.

Sometimes you can be doing all the “right” things and still not feel like yourself.

Sometimes you need therapy.
Sometimes you need medication.
Sometimes you need a combination of things.
And sometimes you need a provider who will actually sit down with you and figure out what makes sense for your life.

Because taking care of your mental health shouldn’t be about doing everything perfectly.

It should be about finding what actually helps you feel more like yourself again.

That’s the kind of mental health care we believe in at Well Balanced Women.

One of my favorite things about being part of the mental health community in Ohio is how many incredible providers I’ve gotten to know along the way.

Therapists. Psych NPs. Psychiatrists. Practice owners. Providers with different specialties, approaches, personalities, and areas of expertise.

And that matters.

Because sometimes we aren’t going to be the right fit for you — and that’s okay.

But 10 times out of 10? We probably know someone who is.

Good mental health care isn’t about trying to be everything to everyone or keeping every patient who walks through your door. It’s knowing what you do really well, knowing when someone may be better served elsewhere, and having a community of providers you trust enough to send them to.

We might own different practices, but at the end of the day, we’re all here for the same reason:

Helping people get the care they deserve.

It’s so easy to live in the next thing.

The next goal. The next milestone. The next season where things will finally slow down and you’ll have more time.

Especially when you’re ambitious and there’s always something else you want to build, accomplish, or become.

But your life isn’t waiting for you to get there.

It’s happening in the ordinary moments in between. The ones that don’t make the calendar or the to-do list. The ones you might not realize were the good old days until they’re gone.

You don’t have to stop wanting more for your life.

Just remember to look around every once in a while and realize how much of what you once wanted is already here.

Forever rooting for you 🫶
