In this episode, I talk with Dr. Tyler Beauchamp, a pediatric resident whose path into medicine was shaped by his own experiences as a chronic patient. He shares candidly about how those early encounters with the healthcare system influenced his understanding of what it means to be a physician — and how some of his assumptions were challenged along the way. Together, we explore the intersection of writing, mental health, and medicine — and the essential role of creativity and human connection in clinical care. This conversation is a powerful reminder that the best doctors aren’t just medically skilled — they’re also curious, compassionate, and willing to bring their whole selves to the work. If you’ve ever wondered how to make space for your creative passions in a demanding profession, Tyler’s story might just be the encouragement you need.
