Send us a text

Have you ever felt trapped in a career that just doesn't feel right for you? I know I have. Join me in this heartfelt and honest discussion about my personal journey of trying to leave medicine, facing depression and anxiety in medical school, and eventually discovering a new passion in acting.

We'll explore the challenges faced when leaving a stable career like medicine, from financial struggles to lifestyle adjustments, and the impact on our sense of identity. I'll share my experience with the toxic work environments in the medical field, and how taking a break led me to joining the Locum Bank in Bristol and eventually pursuing acting.

In this emotional rollercoaster of an episode, we'll discuss the importance of finding your own path and the obstacles you may face when breaking away from societal pressures and expectations. Join me as I share my story of resilience, self-discovery, and hope for a brighter future beyond the confines of medicine.
