Hey Doc,

We’re heading into the holiday season, and I want to offer you a small but powerful reminder — the kind we don’t usually give ourselves this time of year. Between the gifts, the traditions, the kids, the family expectations, and the pressure to “create magic,” it’s so easy to slide into the background of your own life without even noticing.

But what if this year looked different?

What if you let yourself want what you actually want — without guilt, without hinting, without hoping people will guess?

In this short episode, I’m sharing a simple, direct nudge as we close out the year. Think of this as your holiday check-in: a moment to reconsider how much you give, how often you bend, and where you’ve quietly disappeared under everyone else's needs.

🎧 Tune in to the full episode — this is your reminder to put yourself back at the center of your own season.

Strategy Coaching Session with Dr. Toya

Hey Doc —

What if I told you your husband and AI have way more in common than you think?

Not in a “men are robots” way, but in a “this explains so much about your marriage” way.

In this episode, I’m breaking down the four big parallels between husbands and AI — the ones that quietly shape your communication, your expectations, and yes… your resentment. And listen, I love AI and I love husbands, so this episode is coming from a place of deep affection and deep realness.

We’re talking about the stuff we all experience but rarely say out loud:

• The mind-reading you wish he could do (but he absolutely cannot)
• The unspoken expectations that turn into premeditated resentments
• How his upbringing — just like AI training data — shapes everything
• Why he jumps straight into Fix-It Mode when you just wanted “Ugh babe, that sucks”
• And why you should be using (and leveraging) both AI and your husband way more than you are

If you've ever wondered “Why doesn’t he just KNOW?” or you’ve found yourself venting to him only to get a full strategic plan you didn’t ask for — this episode is for you.

Share this one with another physician mom who’s ready for more clarity, less resentment, and better communication in her marriage.

Strategy Coaching Session with Dr. Toya

Hey Doc —

Dr. Toya Coaching is turning two! 🎉

Two years ago, I had a newborn, a burnout hangover, and an idea that didn’t make much sense on paper, but made perfect sense for my life. What started as a postpartum support concept has evolved into a global coaching brand, a thriving community, and an impact that‘s undeniable.

In this anniversary episode, I’m reflecting on the year everything changed — the burnout, the baby, the business, and what I’ve learned about building boldly when the plan doesn’t make sense to anyone else.

This isn’t a highlight reel. It’s about the real lessons behind the glow-up:

how I certified my way into a trap, how clarity showed up when I stopped trying to be “qualified enough,” and how every detour — even the useless ones — got me exactly where I was supposed to be.

We talk about:

• The trap of overqualifying yourself before you start
• Why “just start” is more powerful than another certification
• How every misstep can still move you forward
• The mindset shift that turns fear into freedom
• And why you don’t need to see the end to take the first step

This is a celebration, but it’s also a reminder: you can build boldly, even when you’re unsure, or a little scared.

Every dream needs a starting point. Two years ago, this was mine.

🎧 Go listen now, and share this episode with another physician mom who needs the reminder that her bold move doesn’t need permission — just a beginning.
