Day 1 Residency Advice for Imposters - You Can Be Dumb & Still Be a Doctor

Feeling stupid in med school or residency? You are not alone. In this video, I talk honestly about imposter syndrome, anxiety in the hospital, feeling behind compared to your co-residents, and how I survived internal medicine residency even when I felt like I didn’t belong. Whether you are a medical student, intern, resident, or future internal medicine doctor, this is your reminder that confidence comes with time, organization, and effort. You do not need to be the smartest person in the room to become a good doctor. You just need to keep showing up, stay organized, and build your system one day at a time. Residency is hard. Medicine is humbling. But feeling dumb does not mean you are dumb. It means you are learning. The Whitebook PDF: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ciuhqv...
