On today’s episode, I’m talking to orthopedic surgeon Dr. Jacqueline Brady about moving past insecurities.

Jackie is an associate professor of orthopedics and rehabilitation at OHSU and the associate director of their orthopedics residency program. She’s a member of the Ruth Jackson Orthopaedics Society and of The FORUM, a group of women sports med orthopedics. These connections and conversations with other women in the field have helped Jackie see the ways so many women undervalue their skills, leading her to publish research showing that women residents give themselves lower self-evaluations compared to their male peers. 

We talk about:

• Drawing from the times where things didn’t work as planned to relate to others currently going through similar experiences. 
• How everyone has feelings of imposter syndrome at some point and finding the balance between insecurity as a motivator versus an inhibitor.
• Why pursuing your passions benefits not just yourself, but everyone else around you.
