S2E16: Normalizing Sex Education Mar 13, 2019

Show notes

It's something the majority of us can relate to, but many actually don't receive proper sex education, or they’re getting unhelpful and misinformed information. Sex education is surprisingly still stigmatized in medical school. On this episode, we talk about why, as future doctors, we think it's critical people, especially young teenagers, receive proper education on sex, birth control, and learn about their own sexual orientation, and why it's important to normalize the conversation surrounding sex.

S2E15: History, Present, and Future of OB/GYN Feb 27, 2019

Show notes

For a long chunk of history, the field of medicine was male-dominated and obstetrics and gynaecology was no exception. In this episode, we talk about the growth of the field, the root of sensitivity surrounding the medical specialty, and why, even though OB/GYN is now largely female-dominated, discrepancy still exists.

S2E12: End-of-Year Reflections Dec 12, 2018

Show notes

Life keeps going but that doesn't mean you shouldn't slow down every now and then to reflect on all the good you've accomplished and all the milestones you've passed. Self-reflecting is important for self-growth—it can help ground you to where you want to be and get to in life. As the year comes to an end, we're chatting about goals we made and the lessons we learned in 2018.

S2E11: The Climb to Residency isn't as Steep as it Appears Dec 05, 2018

Show notes

For many med students, the climb to residency can seem like a steep mountain, and it can be difficult to take a step back and recognize your accomplishments. But it's important to remember that all residents, all physicians, were med students at one point in their journey to the top. We talked to psychiatry resident Jackson Wong about navigating the hospital hierarchy and how to prepare ourselves for residency.

S2E10: Going Beyond "Let Me Know if You Need Help" Nov 28, 2018

Whether you connect on a cultural level, or that you're women practicing medicine, most of us want to feel like we matter, like we're valued. Making connections with others from the same communities can give you a sense of belonging.

S2E8: Confessions of a 3rd-Year Medical Student Oct 17, 2018

Show notes

You know you’re a medical student when you cannot count how many times you’ve run after a resident… only to follow them to the door of a bathroom. It happens. We’re sharing some of our embarrassing, funny, confusing, and frustrating moments of third-year so far… because you shouldn’t have to go through medical school alone.

S2E7: Inclusion vs. Tokenism Oct 10, 2018

Show notes

Diversity can be a sensitive subject for some, and the line separating inclusion and tokenism can be blurry. Merriam-Webster defines tokenism as, "the policy or practice of making only a symbolic effort, as to desegregate." Have you ever been tokenized?
