In the second part of our conversation, Dr. Caylor speaks about the exciting potential of innovation in family medicine, especially as artificial intelligence (AI) continues to gain momentum. She discusses how the "dance" that medical students are often expected to follow can limit room for creativity, but with AI and other emerging technologies, there is a brighter, more innovative future for the field. Dr. Caylor also stresses the importance of finding joy in your work and transitioning away from the perfectionism that often leads to burnout.
We also dive deep into reclaiming autonomy during medical training. Dr. Caylor offers invaluable advice for residents on how to navigate career transitions with empowerment, self-compassion, and a healthy mindset. From managing perfectionism to finding your voice in an often rigid system, she shares actionable strategies to help young physicians feel more in control of their journey.
