Description: Hey Heal Squad! We’re back with Part 2 of our powerful conversation with Dr. Tiffany Moon, anesthesiologist, author of Joy Prescriptions, and former Real Housewives of Dallas star. Tiffany opens up about the harsh realities of burnout, mom guilt, and the impossible balancing act women face in careers that don’t support family life. She shares what it was really like to return to work just six weeks after giving birth to twins, the toll that lifestyle took on her mental and physical health, and how she eventually found her way back to joy. Tiffany also gives us practical tools for protecting our peace, from doing a “friend audit” to stop energy drains, to breaking free from the toxic game of comparison on social media. PLUS, she takes us behind the scenes of her time on Real Housewives, what she learned from that experience, and the life-changing safety tips everyone should know before going under anesthesia!  HEALERS & HEAL-LINERS:  Comparison steals joy. Tiffany reminds us that social media often fuels the “compare and despair” cycle, but constantly measuring yourself against curated highlight reels only robs you of peace. Instead, she encourages focusing on your own progress and defining success on your terms. Do a friend audit. Not everyone deserves access to your energy. Tiffany shares how evaluating who truly uplifts you (and who drains you) can be life-changing,  sometimes the healthiest step is to shrink your circle and invest in relationships that give back. Know your anesthesia risks. Surgery isn’t the time to stay quiet. Tiffany emphasizes asking about medication interactions, family history, and monitoring protocols, because informed patients are safer patients. A few questions could literally save your life.
