*Shares my interest in orthopedics*
“You don’t look like the ortho type.”
“I don’t see you doing ortho.”
“What if you have kids?”
“You’re too bubbly to be a surgeon.”
“Don’t do surgery.”
You know who has NEVER said these things to me? Orthopedic surgeons. #orthotwitter
Being prepared for a new challenge isn't a matter of qualification. It's a matter of contribution.
Impostor syndrome says "I'm not ready." Growth mindset says "I'll get ready."
The question is not whether you belong. It's how you can make a difference.

A busy life is not a symbol of status. It's a symptom of trying to do too much for too many people.
A full calendar brings a surplus of stress and a shortage of energy. Reflecting and relaxing should be top priorities.
Unscheduled time isn't wasted. It's invested in well-being.
This is the art I submitted for the @MSOSOrtho art contest. In essence, my main goal was to highlight the power of mentorship within the field. Mentorship it's the key to breaking barriers, increasing diversity, and transforming “Dreams into Reality”.

Almost every time I've had an interaction with a colleague that felt "off" it turned out later that they had been dealing not just with professional burdens but with stressors outside of work too
1) you never really know what someone else is going through
2) give people grace
