Welcome to Episode 23! Since this week marks the start of the academic year for many students, or the start of their clinical rotations, and because the new interns and comm serve doctors are finding their feet, this week's episode is all about setting up healthy habits and behaviours for success! Many of the keys presented are things you might know, but life is often not about what we know, but rather about what we routinely do. With the right mindset, study methods, and self-care habits this year, 2023 is going to be your best year yet!
