We opened up the inbox and wow… y’all really came through. In this first-ever Q&A episode, Margaret and I answer your questions about coping during med school, surviving feedback, dealing with emotional exhaustion in residency, and why outpatient goodbyes feel like actual breakups. I also overshare about marathon training (again), Margaret brings the wisdom and the theater metaphors, and we all learn what bald eagles actually sound like. It’s a mix of serious, strange, and unexpectedly honest—basically, peak us.

Takeaways:

What if taking feedback wasn’t about defending yourself—but just... listening? It took me a while to get there. Still working on it.

Graduating patients from therapy might be the hardest part of residency. Margaret gets into what that really feels like.

Coping doesn’t always look like wellness. Sometimes it looks like boundary-setting, running way too far, or just... wearing real pants again.

The match will mess with your head. But six months into residency? You’ll probably be right where you need to be.

Can we measure healing in showers taken, not symptoms cured? Asking for a friend. And all of psychiatry.
