Learning to notice how I feel & respond in a more compassionate way has been one of my biggest successes in the last 5 years. I can't see or measure it... But I can feel it. Yesterday evening, it looked like this. Here's to rewriting what axhievement looks like!

This week marks 6yrs since I left clinical medicine. A story of burnout & mental illness. I've felt shame and stigma, grief & loss... But I've also developed greatly since then, Both personally & professionally. This was not my life plan, But it's made me who I am today.

As a kid, I loved performing. Public speaking has allowed me to rekindle that passion. Careers don't have to be linear. In fact, the variety of what I do now is pretty awesome actually!
