Episode 14 She navigated racism through medical school and as a practicing doctor Part 1

Dr. Gwen Williams knew at 4 years old she would be a doctor. She was raised by first generation immigrant parents who empowered her confidence by living the example of making the world a better place, to be kind, to have compassion and self-aware.

Having grown up in NYC, she was used to all flavors of diversity and was exposed to the historic truths of race in America by intentional community leaders. During medical school she was corrected by fellow non-white students to "behave" and she began to see a different side of the world she didn't anticipate. 

Her story is compelling, her optimism is contagious and her perspective is invaluable which is why this conversation has been split into Part 1 and Part 2.  Enjoy Part 1 today.
