Sarah Petelinsek is a third year medical student who has made it a point to not define herself with the medical student label alone. In this episode we talk about asking for help, experiences that clarify values, maintaining beliefs during hard times, and redrawing the boxes we have to check during medical school. This point of redrawing boxes, struck me as a reminder we all need. There will always be boxes to check but can we redefine and redraw them? Is it possible to keep our beliefs alive and hold onto the things that matter most? Sarah has a way of being both optimistic and realistic that is special and resonates. As we go through the motions, the operational present, maybe we can redefine it, even on a small scale and find more meaning in the day to day process of becoming a physician.
