## Resource

Welcome to Episode #61 of the She Lift Project Podcast, where host Cynthia Kirkpatrick sits down with Dr. Vedica Sharma, a board-certified intensivist and entrepreneur. Dr. Sharma is an ICU physician who treats the sickest patients on their worst days, and is also the co-founder of Vivia Concierge, a first-of-its-kind concierge services company offering everything from in-home spa services to house management. This episode explores her journey through medical training during COVID-19, the lessons she learned about time and mortality, and how she built a thriving business without a business degree or roadmap. This episode is for ambitious professionals, working parents, and anyone feeling stretched thin while trying to do it all. Listeners will learn how to embrace failure as a learning tool, why asking for help is a strength not a weakness, and how the smallest acts of self-care can make the biggest difference in your life. After listening, you'll be inspired to push beyond your comfort zone, stop limiting yourself, and take action on that idea you've been overthinking—because life is too short not to chase what makes you happy.
