Our careers in medicine have a profound shaping effect on who we are as persons, partners, colleagues, parents and friends. Our experience of medicine, with its successes, failures, moments of joy and tragedy, has a significant impact on our well-being.

Developed in collaboration with Dr. Jillian Horton, this series, available in video and podcast formats, explores remarkable physician stories. These conversations provide an opportunity for you to reflect on your purpose and challenges, your shared identity as physicians and the possibility of finding new ways for growth.
