When There is No One Right Choice

Physicians love a path. An Algorithm. A Decision Tree. We are used to thinking in patterns, in sorting through data to see what fits and what doesn't fit. The path into medicine was also fairly prescribed. So when we are struggling with a decision, one where there isn't a clear path, we can easily get stuck. We might dig into research mode. Or consult with a mentor. But so much of the time, we avoid looking inside, avoid listening to the person most affected by the decision; ourselves. In this episode, I will share an idea about how to move forward when you don't have all of the information that you want, and are searching for the "right" answer.

Fair warning, this episode is a bit rough around the edges, and my kids were definitely running up and down the stairs. But part of me letting go of perfectionism, is being willing to publish it anyway. So here's to good enough work, in real life!
