SUCCESS LEAVES CLUES
We asked Dr. Yewande for Clues
Something that catalyzed your growth - besides working hard?
Community and surrounding yourself with like-minded people is a game-changer! For a long time, I didn’t know doctors could do much beyond traditional medicine. But as I met one doctor after the other who had expanded their path, my eyes opened to new possibilities, and I haven’t looked back since!
Something you're most proud of?
I am most proud of patients and clients as they show up for their psychotherapy sessions, work on their goals, and become a better version of themselves everyday. I’m grateful that they trust me to help them on their healing journeys.
On Reinvention
As someone who has moved around from a young age, reinvention isn’t new to me. But my career shift from ER doctor to psychotherapist has been the most defining. I evolved from who I “should” be to who I actually am: A healer not confined to the four walls of a hospital. And someone who refused to live below her potential or settle for the status quo.
A reinventor to me is someone who knows there is more in their DNA than what their current circumstances suggest. Like the caterpillar that instinctively knows it carries the makings of a butterfly, she does the quiet work of retreating, shedding, and breaking out of old labels to become the beautiful creature she was always designed by God to be.
Note to everyone considering a pivot:
"Reinvention is not easy. But when you rise and become the woman this season requires you to be, the rewards are priceless."
Worth Remembering
Ambition and wellness can go hand in hand. Growth is uncomfortable, but it doesn’t have to cost your peace and well-being.
