Crazy or Called? Discerning Big Changes at Home and Work
On the second episode of Catholic Working Mom, host Jessie Rettinger sits down with Dr. Trish Rawicki, a physician who now works a full schedule in a fast-changing field where doctors are in high demand. Trish started her family in the middle of her medical residency, then paused her training for a couple of years to be home with her kids before returning to medicine. She always felt called to work, yet she wrestled with stepping back after pouring so much time and energy into medical school. Together they talk about how to discern a big change, the options that are rarely advertised, and why it's worth asking for them when you feel called to do what's best for your family.
