In this episode, we’re getting real about the unspoken balancing act many minority professionals face every day—navigating the fine line between authenticity and professionalism in clinical spaces, hospitals, and out on the field. From the pressure of interview prep to daily decisions about hair, voice, clothing, and even makeup, we unpack how identity and culture intersect with expectations in healthcare.We talk about the emotional labor of being judged more harshly, the internal debate between loosening up vs. staying “buttoned up,” and the morale toll of always having to code-switch.
