In medical school, it can all too often feel like everyone knows what they’re doing except you. Some people always seem to have this err of confidence to them. But does anyone really know what they’re doing?
In this episode, we talk all about times when we have felt like everyone has ‘got it’ except us, how and why we might fake it until we make it, and some tips on building this confidence in our clinical and academic lives, with some guidance from expert guest, Órla McGovern.
Órla McGovern is a storyteller and actor living in Galway, Ireland. An award-winning storyteller who has told at the Cape Clear Festival, Yarn Festival at Mermaid Arts World Storytelling Café, Electric Picnic, Artists House Cobh, and numerous others, Órla has worked extensively with medical students as both a simulated patient and as a 'clown doctor,' entertaining patients in hospital.
