In S7E16, medical student Cassidy Nguyen joins Lilly and Hạ to discuss the importance of balancing life outside of medicine, highlighting how physical wellness can reduce burnout and improve overall well-being. They explore self-care as a long-term investment that fosters both personal and professional growth.
