At some point in our academic medicine careers, we will all overcommit ourselves to an overwhelming number of responsibilities.
Jennifer Apps, PhD, joins the Faculty Factory Podcast this week to chat about reconnecting to our values to reclaim some balance.
Dr. Apps is a pediatric neuropsychologist at Children's Wisconsin, a pediatric acute care children's hospital in Milwaukee. She also serves as associate professor and the vice chair of faculty development in the Psychiatry and Behavioral Medicine Department.
No one wants to miss a potentially great opportunity and many of us have a hard time saying no, but without clearly defining our values it is difficult to prioritize what matters most.
“The worst feeling comes when you get into these positions and you feel like you're not doing any of them because you're just managing them all instead of really being able to excel,” she said.
As we enter a new year and Season 5 of the Faculty Factory Podcast, this interview will hopefully serve as an inspiration to many.
“We've all gone into these fields where we've demonstrated the ability to persevere towards a long-term goal, but in order to do that, you have to have these values that have been guiding you,” Dr. Apps said.
