I've come to realise that in the midst of our busy lives, it's easy to lose sight of who we really are and what truly matters to us. As a junior doctor, I can attest to the fact that it's all too easy to get caught up in the rat race to achieve more, to do more, and to progress through the training ranks. But through my own journey of self-growth and introspection, I've learned the importance of self-discovery and aligning my goals with my values. Sadly, this has meant that my values/goals do not align with those tolerated by trainees in the NHS, but that’s a topic for another day.
