O TYM ODCINKU
What becomes possible when physicians stop hiding their gifts and start sharing their voices?
In this episode of Stand Up (for) Doctors!, we're talking about courage. Not the kind required in an emergency, but the kind it takes to create, write, speak up, and share your story with the world.
🔹 Dr. Rebecca Thompson is a physician, community builder, and author committed to helping others find connection through authentic storytelling.
🔹 Susan Hart Gaines is a life and leadership coach, workshop creator, facilitator, and author who helps people lead with courage and purpose.
Both guests have recently put books out into the world. That takes vulnerability. It takes conviction. And it takes a willingness to be seen.
Many physicians are taught to keep their heads down, work hard, and avoid drawing attention to themselves. But what happens when they discover their voice matters?
The greatest risk may not be being judged. It may be never sharing what only you can offer.
