I'm weirdly excited to share this episode with you because today I am joined by Dr Christy Gibson, a fellow Family Medicine Physician, Speaker and Change Agent who is on the forefront of advocating for better trauma education for clinicians, and working as a trauma clinician herself.

Join us as we dive into how we as physicians experience trauma throughout our work in healthcare, and how we can start to develop tools that not only help our patients, but more critically help ourselves. You don't want to miss this episode!
