Save Lives, Enjoy Your Own

Join me for some failure talk! I consider myself a burgeoning expert in this realm…

In this episode I discuss the outcome of the recent Mastermind Retreat for Women in Male-Dominated Fields, and share what it’s like to enter leadership in academics versus private practice.

This episode will help normalize why you might wonder if you belong in a specialty that feels like a boys’ club. Consider some tools from women who’ve been there, including Dr. Nancy Yen Shipley, a friend and Twitter famous orthopedic surgeon!

In this episode we talk about some of the ‘advice’ you might need to weave through or toss aside as you pursue a male-dominated field of medicine or science.

This episode is a break from our usual program. This week, I’m sharing a lesson from the digital course I’ve been creating over the last couple of months, Broke to Breadwinner and Beyond. This is a sample talk for those of you wondering the kinds of strategy I share in the course. Enjoy! And to check out the outline & enroll, head to TiredSuperheroine.thinkific.com.

This episode talks about some challenges we encounter as we care for really sick patients. Enjoy this excerpt of the book and an invitation to check out my new digital course!

This week I’m talking about the glory and pain of choosing a life of service: one in which you take on the task of saving lives.

In this episode, I talk about working with your hands, how fun it is, and some stumbling blocks people commonly overcome to pursue surgically oriented specialties of medicine!

How do you find your “people,” even if it’s not obvious at first!

Finding your place and WHY it matters!
