Resident Views Alex

Its on almost every personal statement for medical school admissions; we went into medicine to help people. But sometimes along the way we lose what brought us to medicine. Losing that sense of purpose can damage our well-being at work. How can we reconnect with it and why now, during the COVID-19 pandemic, is that so important? We try to make some sense of that in this podcast. 

The COVID-19 crisis has affected all of us in unique and often stressful ways. As resident physicians we attempt to balance learning, serving patients and maintaining wellness in a variety of ways. Today's discussion attempts to make some sense of how Carlo and I have processed a lot of the changes due to this pandemic.
