Bundle Of Hers

Let's all agree to agree on food. We all need to eat—it's an essential part of living. But yet, some of us skip meals more often than our bodies can handle. The issue of finances or access to food aside, sometimes you just don't have time for food. Due to the nature of a lot of our jobs, sometimes we leave the house in the morning on an empty stomach and it stays empty until later that evening. Sometimes we're in a hurry and it's a sugary donut for lunch. Margaux and Harjit talk about their coping strategies for tackling "the food situation" as fourth-year med students with unpredictable schedules.

You want to change the world, heal its wounds, and make it a better place … all while studying for next week’s test. But when you are worried about numbers and scores, the reason you are studying medicine in the first place can be hard to hold onto. Margaux and Leen talk about activism in med school and what it means to be an activist and advocate in health care.

“Where are you from?” — What prompts the question, and what is it really asking? Your ethnicity, culture, where you were born, raised, and where you call home are identifiers of who you are. Ideally, you should feel comfortable and proud of who you are. Unfortunately, many people of color in America, instead, can feel fear of not being “American” enough. Harjit and Bushra talk about their experiences #GrowingUpBrown and how they have come to feel pride in being a person of color in a predominantly white environment.

Safe to say, choosing a specialty is one of the most important decisions to make for any medical student. Do you choose the specialty, or does the specialty choose you? There can be a lot of expectations in the decision-making process—especially if you came into medical school with unintended biases—but how many of those expectations are actual realities? In the first episode of season three, we talk about how we chose our specialties.

It is the season two finale, and we are reflecting on memories from our third year of medical school: lessons we have learned, goals we have achieved, and challenges we overcame. And we also look forward to the future—preparing for the end of our medical school journey (!!!) and the conversations we want to continue on the third season of BUNDLE OF HERS.

We have never really considered ourselves as influences—we like to think we are just sharing stories about diverse experiences in medicine. But with more and more influencers using social media to expand their reach, what does it mean to be an authentic social influencer? In this episode, we talk about the responsibilities and accountabilities of social media.
