As doctors we make career decisions all the time, and some of these will be challenging to make. In this episode, Gilly shares her experiences of having career discussions with doctors. She tells me that as doctors we are used to having a very clear career road map, but doing something different requires agency and courage. I love her top tips: value yourself, be kind to yourself, and know that there are always more opportunities that seem immediately apparent.
