Today I’m talking to Dr. Mindy Lane, a sub-specialist surgeon in the United States with 25 years of experience. Her understanding of how to thrive under high-stakes pressure in the operating room has enabled Mindy to also become an accomplished EK-WESS-TREE-UN.
In the OR, she was able to lead her team with steady hands and a clear mind to save lives. In the dressage arena, she harnessed the pressure—and her horse, Fjurie—to achieve the highest levels in national competitions. As Mindy says, the principles of calm, control, and precision apply in both hospital and horse riding.
She now specialises in bridging the gap between industry and medicine. Her goal is to make a significant impact on global health through innovative solutions.
Whether it’s in the operating theatre, the arena, or the boardroom, Mindy believes that being "better under pressure" isn’t just a skill—it’s a way of life.
In our conversation, Mindy shares:
- When a winning strategy doesn’t work anymore
- How a data-driven scientist deals with gut instinct
- And what happened when she saw in her daughter a side of herself she didn’t like
