"My dean was kind enough to share w/ me that pregnancy results in loss of grey matter, causing some women to struggle with standardized exams upon return from maternity leave.

I'm pregnant again with Step 2 looming.

Should I be concerned?"

Love this one by a #nontrad #premed: Why medicine must stop worshipping burnout and start valuing humanity https://t.co/ab50rRzN2w via @kevinmd

An interesting perspective we don't often see: Why the pre-med path is pushing future doctors to the brink https://t.co/y0M4gH10ta via @kevinmd

The fastest way to lose motivation is for your identity to be dependent on the outcome.

This is called ego involvement.

This causes your brain to avoid any risk as failure = failure as a person.

@9mmsmg so true, many of us are getting wrecked after career setbacks during the recession

@GeauxGabrielle fascism... or, time to hire new interns!

@doclauravater I feel this so deeply after losing an extremely desired pregnancy last month

@jasonryanmd this is a great post, thanks for sharing your journey!

When Boards and Beyond was new and relatively unknown, someone posted online that the videos were trash. This was back when the library was small, and I was still adding to it. I was spending a lot of my own money to run the site, and I didn’t know if it would ever be profitable. After reading the post, the next morning I got up early before work and recorded a new video. Then another one on my lunch break. I think I made ten more videos in the next week. Years later, the website had hundreds of thousands of subscribers from around the world, and it was bought by McGraw Hill, a global leader in medical education.

Don’t let the haters stop you.

Use them as motivation to work harder.

On Memorial Day, we remember the sacrifices that our men and women in uniform and their families have made to preserve our freedom. May we always strive to honor the strength and resolve they’ve shown our country.

@people You lost a tremendous opportunity to educate the public about the importance of getting the Tdap vaccine during pregnancy, which protects infants not yet old enough to get vaccinated. https://t.co/xzYowDBp8f

Medical students need sleep.
Resident doctors need sleep.
Fellows need sleep.
Seasoned practitioners need sleep.

Let's get real: regardless of the checkbox, maternal morbidity and mortality in the U.S., esp for Black women, is abysmal. We can do better, and need to.

She was in her 40s.
A resident doctor.

Older than all her peers, she was different.

She was the one who left on time.

Eyes rolled.
People tutted.

She wasn't committed.
She lacked dedication.
Then I became that woman.

@drjessmorgan_ I cant imagine how this post came my way, but last night I told my husband i have decided to seek a shared residency position against all odds because the alternative wont work for our (hopeful) growing family (and my personal health needs). Thank you for sharing this💕

@scjpeek you will, never lose hope, nothing good comes easy!!!!!

[Sarah Peek Garcia @scjpeek]

I will not let this process define me. I will not let this process overshadow the last 4 years. I will not let this process steal my joy. I will graduate in May. I will still be Dr. Garcia. I will be someone’s OBGYN, when God sees fit.

@MehakSemy never give up, you will find a way!!!!
