Telling Your Story - The Power of the Personal Essay for Physicians
Physicians are habitual storytellers. From morning rounds to patient handoffs, we constantly narrate the events of our day, making sense of complex medical cases and human experiences. But how often do we reflect on the stories that define our own paths? The personal essay offers us the chance to turn our internal narratives into powerful, reflective pieces that explore the choices and challenges that shape our careers and our lives.
