S3E7 - Dr Charlie Easmon MBBS MRCP MSc (Your Excellent Health Service)

Leah speaks to Dr Charlie Easmon MBBS MRCP MSc Public Health DTM&H DOccMed DFPH CTH FRSPH, an experienced doctor, entrepreneur and professional speaker, about his longest day while running a private business specialising in health screening and travel vaccinations for corporate and government clients. He talks about the importance of mentorship, the temptation to grow too fast and the challenges of delegation and getting culture right within the organisation. Charlie refers to being the only black kid at boarding school as well as how racism persisting in the NHS propelled him in his studies for a masters in public health, a diploma in tropical medicine, and to become a member of the Royal College of Physicians.

Charlie speaks in schools on everything from mental health to the history of prejudice to pornography. In the episode, he highlights the prevalence of imposter syndrome, its origin and potential causes, and challenges young people to find senior folk longer in the tooth to support them in the difficult areas and advise them on how to deal with the many obstacles they will face.
