About this listen

 Where we talk about what it’s actually like to be a woman in medicine. Hosted by a facial plastic surgeon who’s not afraid to ask bold questions, this show dives into the messy, beautiful, complicated lives we all live: careers, kids, IVF, burnout, marriage, divorce, ambition, and all the expectations we’re supposed to meet. Nothing is off-limits. These are the conversations we’ve all had behind closed doors - now we’re having them out loud.Copyright 2025 Lauren Umstattd, MD

    1. Messy, Bold, and Unapologetic
    May 5 2025

    In this powerful and unfiltered debut episode of FEMMD, Dr. Lauren Umstattd—a facial plastic surgeon, business owner, and mother—opens up about the beautiful mess of balancing a high-stakes medical career with motherhood, identity, and ambition.

    Lauren speaks candidly about what it means to crave complexity, lean into vulnerability, and challenge societal norms around success, femininity, and parenting. From the raw realities of surgery to the emotional demands of parenting, she doesn’t hold back.

    She discusses the guilt many working mothers carry, the myth of perfection in both medicine and parenting, and the power of taking up space unapologetically.
