How do we face our own insecurities? When you are navigating your career and living with a disability/ chronic health condition it can feel like people either expect too little of you, or too much. And there is an awkwardness around you and your condition. In this vulnerable and powerful episode BJ Miller shares his deeply personal experience of navigating medical school, and learning how to use his inner strength to curate his career pathway. Plus the turning points in his career, and how he learned to befriend his own insecurity and find his way through the Unknown.
