Diversity in Neurosurgery w/ Jalen Alexander The Well Aware Podcast

    • Self-Improvement

Hello Well Aware listeners,

Welcome to another episode of the Well Aware Podcast. In this episode, we're going to be talking about awareness from a focus on racial diversity in the workforce in the field of neurosurgery with one of the first-ever authors on the subject, Jalen Alexander.

Jalen is a good friend of mine from my short time in New York City. When we last reconnected, he shared with me this work of his and others, and it became clear to me that this was something I wanted to help share and make you aware about.

One thing I want to invite you keep in mind while listening to this episode:

Think about the broader implications of going from unaware to aware of something that speaks to your values and missions in life. In this episode, even Jalen admits surprise to his own assumptions about where he thought the data was going to be with respect to this research, and where the reality stood. To me, this is the first step in so many great calls to action. This is what takes us from aware to well aware, and subsequently well on our way.

With that, I hope you enjoy the episode. Let's dive in.
