hi friends! in today's video we have the a work in progress podcast episode number 24 where I talk about my second (spring) semester in my pre-medical school program at meharry medical college, aka med school bootcamp!

For those of you all following in my footsteps or taking advice from my journey, it is my duty as your digital big sister and mentor to share with you, what I wish I would’ve known before entering into a new season, especially these pivotal gap years. It may not be perfect, or pretty, but you don’t have to have all of the answers right now and that is okay. It may not be good right now, but it will be good eventually because God causes all things to work together for our good and some of those ways are by how these experiences are shaping us for the professional student and ultimately the greater human we are becoming.  

Today we are going to talk about projecting your insecurities onto other people. I thought about this topic out of pure frustration that I’ve received from my mentors and other well meaning counselors who unknowingly discourage me on my journey to medicine. Take a listen to how this plays out in my life, why it frustrates me, and how I deal with it.
