It’s Halloween! While the kids are gearing up in their costumes, ready to take on magical roles, I’m thinking about the masks we all wear—not just on Halloween, but in our everyday lives. From superheroes to witches, kids transform in an instant. As adults, our ‘masks’ often hide who we really are. In this episode, I share a story from my days as a pediatric resident, where putting on a ‘strong’ mask helped me survive, but left me feeling isolated. Let’s talk about the masks we wear, the roles we play, and what it might feel like to set one of them down. Are you ready to let your true self shine?
