This episode originally aired on The Happy CEO Podcast and it was too powerful not to share here.
Dr. Erin Sheffield is a board-certified oral and maxillofacial surgeon, retreat founder, and advocate for women in medicine. In this conversation, she joins Dr. Jessica Emery to talk about the parts of dentistry and medicine we don’t often discuss: IVF, imposter syndrome, identity, and what it means to lead with softness in a system built on hardness.
From her surgical training to her fertility journey and the creation of a retreat designed for female doctors and surgeons, Dr. Erin opens up about her path with honesty, strength, and a mission to make women in healthcare feel less alone.
Whether you're a dental student, provider, or practice owner, this conversation will move you.
Because behind every white coat is a woman with a story. And this one is worth hearing twice.
