They Told Me I Don't Belong Here.
By Dr. Elham Neisani Samani, OB/GYN I have delivered hundreds of babies. I have held the hands of women in their most terrifying and most joyful moments. I have spent my entire adult life becoming the kind of doctor who shows up — completely, compassionately, and without hesitation — for my patients. What I never imagined was that one day, bleeding and pregnant and alone in a call room at 21 weeks, I would be the one who needed someone to show up for me. No one did.

Locker Room. AI-Generated.
I found it on a Tuesday, which feels like the right day for something like this. Not a dramatic Friday. Just a Tuesday, the kids overtired, the house in its usual state of managed chaos, me borrowing my husband's phone because mine had stopped cooperating.

Five Things Junior Project Managers Get Wrong. AI-Generated.
I remember getting my first assistant manager's position and thinking I was the dog's bollocks. The responsibility goes to your head. You've got the title, you've got the clipboard, and for a brief period you genuinely believe you've got it all figured out. I was a little better placed than most because I'd come up through the tools — I understood how a site ran, I knew the sequencing, and I'd seen enough traps laid for unsuspecting newcomers to know they were coming. On construction sites, the initiation is long and the traps are many. But even with that background, I still had plenty to learn. Here are five things I see junior project managers get wrong, decade after decade, as reliably as the rain.

I Said No Twice. She Came Back a Third Time. AI-Generated.
It was an ordinary Sunday morning, which is the kind I like best. My wife was laughing at something our daughter had said, one of those small jokes that only makes sense inside a family, and for a few minutes the world had narrowed down to a plastic table and paper cups and the particular warmth of people who are comfortable together. We weren't doing anything remarkable. Just eating breakfast, being easy in each other's company. Those moments are rarer than they should be, and I've learned to notice them when they arrive.
