Our residency program's motto is "Driven. Supported." As we approach interview season, I've been reflecting on what that's meant for me as a faculty member @WiscPeds. Read my story below... what does being driven and supported in your work mean to you?

Did you know that diaphragmatic breathing can reduce reflux? Love non pharma intervention options! Presented here at #SAHM23 r/t eating disorders, of which reflux is often a complication esp during refeeding… but I may try it myself after my fave spicy foods!

“Abortion is life affirming and life saving care … laws restricting abortion access harm patients” #SAHM23 #SAHM2023

Most minors who need abortion care involve their parents (and want them involved) if it’s safe and right for them to do so. Forcing it doesn’t repair damaged relationships between youth and their guardians, and judicial bypass has harm. #SAHM23

The AAP’s new center for media use will focus on reframing this narrative. Consider social media use as developmentally appropriate, connection, relieving, and a place where they take risks. Consider it like driving, it has risks but helps teens get somewhere. #SAHM23

Texted this gem to my oldest. He ❤️s to redirect me when I’m overdoing it. I try to respond w gratitude. We keep each other accountable on being present >> mindless scrolling (alluring to us both!). Further ammo for him😊 Thx #SAHM23 @SMAHRTeam for keeping adults honest too.

Did you know higher exposure of crops to CO2 decreases the nutrient content of crops? I did not! Climate health is kids’ health. #SAHM23 (Rise in food insecurity attributable to lots of reasons including climate change, COVID pandemic, war in Ukraine, supply chain)

Why is climate health, kids health? See below. For 3 summers the air quality in Seattle was so poor we couldn’t go outside for weeks. Not the reason for our move, but a contributor. #SAHM23

Eating Disorders pro tip: don’t use (or say!) “ideal body weight”. Use estimated treatment goal weight based on prior growth trajectory. Yep, some folx should have weight goals well above the median BMI. #SAHM2023

Bias check #2- people in large bodies can be malnourished, have ED’s (in fact are at higher risk), and at risk for refeeding syndrome. #SAHM2023

Bias check: anorexia nervosa is in all genders including boys and gender diverse groups, and people of all racial and cultural backgrounds (though less common in some areas of the world) The thin, white, female trope is so passé (and incorrect and dangerous) #SAHM2023

Quiz time…. Who can guess what this slide from #SAHM2023 Hot Topic shows us?

Another startling slide from @DrScottHadland at #SAHM2023. Counterfeit pills laces with fentanyl. Blue- oxycodone, pink- adderal, right side- Xanax. Could you tell them apart?

Have been kinda Twitter silent but #SAHM2023 is the perfect reason to pop on. Excited to celebrate the health of teens! Here’s my first learning moment. If this doesn’t make you want to race to screen teens die SUD, IDK what will. Wow. 😢
