To all the trainees starting Monday…
🌟 Be proud of yourself, you’ve made it this far!
🌟 Don’t let imposter syndrome play you…yes it’s real.
🌟 Ask for help, you’re not expected to know everything!
🌟 Pause & enjoy. You’re living the first day of your dreamed life ❤️

My same exact thought today. What a privilege we have.
I love being the Spanish-speaking doctor. It’s incredibly rewarding to help patients feel more comfortable and understood in their own language. I’ve seen how it can make a difference in their understanding of their illness and in sharing their feelings with the team.

Effective Mentorship Tips:
- If someone can’t, keep asking around!
- Make a list of what areas you want mentorship on (life, career, clinical focus, etc) and build your team of mentors!
- Set clear bidirectional expectations!

Highlight of an insanely busy shift:
Walked into my patient’s room to discuss his results. Sat next to him, held his hand and delivered the bad news. Silence.
Me: “I honestly don’t know how to help you”
Him: “You are doing it right now” and hugs me.
*cried for hours 😭
