About this listen

In a profession that demands perfection and endurance, it’s easy to default to survival mode. But what if the real evolution happens when we shift from self-preservation to purpose?
In this episode, we unpack the 6 core human needs—belonging, autonomy, mastery, esteem, trust, and purpose—and how understanding them can change the way you show up in the OR, in leadership, and in life.
We dive into powerful mindshifts specifically for surgeons, like:
🔹 Perfectionism → Service
🔹 Scarcity → Abundance
🔹 "I have to" → "I get to"
🔹 "I don't know" → "I'm figuring it out"
🔹 Triggered → Curious
🔹 "I can’t say no" → "I only say yes when it’s a hell yes"
🔹 Self-focus → Other-focus
🔹 Waiting for the other shoe to drop → Trusting you'll be okay no matter what
These aren’t just affirmations. They’re tools for resilience and power—the kind that help you lead, advocate, and operate from your values, not just your training.
Whether you're burned out, bored, or just ready for something more aligned—this episode will help you remember what’s possible when you start leading from your whole self.
