@LifeFlipside said it:
There is no work-life balance in medicine.
Instead, embrace
Work-life integration
Nurture the best version of yourself
Extend grace to yourself and others

After finishing training, I was inundated with “Hey, Jimmy, do you want to…”
… join this committee
… write a book chapter
… help with this study
… teach students in X or Y
I felt so much pressure to say yes.
Until I created my Hell Yes Policy

We can fix Canadian healthcare if we prioritize better patient experiences and healthy working environments.
Past priorities become current status quos.

I appreciated our conversation about including sig others/partners/family in events to broaden the community and support systems of physicians.
Thanks for all the work that you do!

I was traumatized by responding to @DGlaucomflecken’s cardiac arrest & my interactions with the healthcare system during that time. I went to the Quiet Place (link in bio) and needed a bridge to walk out. These are the words that built my bridge. May they build one for others.
Honored to share this follow-up piece at JCF from @LGlaucomflecken
May you find her words & guidance as impactful as we do

Yesterday my partner moved away to prepare for starting residency in a new city. I’m so proud of him to start the next phase of his training, but also heartbroken that we will be apart for the next 4 years. It’s so sad that medicine can tear people apart like this… 1/2
There is no disconnect between physicians and their families. What impacts physicians at work impacts home and vice versa.
As partners of physicians, we know that every aspect of medical training & practice impacts us too! With July 1st right around the corner, take a moment to read this @MedicalPost article highlighting Match Day & the residency journey from the perspective of a #medspouse.👇👇
