Surgeons, text topics you want me to cover here.

Author, speaker, and coach, Brad Stulberg comes on the podcast to talk about what surgeons can learn from performance athletes. He researches and writes about mental health, mastery, meaning, and excellence. He is bestselling author of the books The Practice of Groundedness and Master of Change. He regularly contributes to the New York Times and his work has also been featured in the Atlantic and Wall Street Journal, among other publications.
