Facilitated Sessions

Welcome to Episode 1 of AME’s Facilitated Sessions (FS): Balancing the Brains and the Books.Your blueprint for medicine begins here.In today's Facilitated Session, we set the foundation for what 'FS' will be: a space for nuanced conversations, mentorship, and mastery across every stage of the medical journey — from pre-med students to residents, fellows, and practicing physicians.💡 Inspired by philosopher Byung-Chul Han’s The Burnout Society, we discuss how our constant drive for productivity often erodes our ability to balance, find meaning, and live fulfilled lives.
