Episode notes

Gawande: It's really hard for doctors to be vulnerable, unless they're sick and dying. "I was like, Oh, so all these people who are running around and scrubs are not these responsible members of society that we pitched them to be," she says. 'When they're treating us, they're as screwed up as the rest of us'

In this inspiring podcast episode, Anthony Chin-Quee, a medical professional and author, shares his journey of self-discovery and how it changed his life for the better. Through his unflinching examination of what it means to be a physician, he discovered the power of storytelling in helping to forgive himself and others, which allowed him to chart a new way forward. His memoir, "I Can't Save You," is an honest and human account of his struggles with relationships, feelings of inadequacy, and a fear of failure, and how looking within transformed his life.
