Are We There Yet?

To kick off season two of Are We There Yet?, Sonja and Jamie invite distinguished healthcare advisor, entrepreneur, and author Dr. Jennie Byrne to unpack the complex mental health challenges facing clinicians on the front lines of the profession, and how technology is already empowering a meaningful transformation in healthcare practice.

Magnified by the high-stakes and perfectionist culture ingrained in medical training, the conversation covers generational approaches to wellness and workplace dynamics, and walks through effective communication strategies that embrace diversity and humanize the often unacknowledged struggles clinicians face to provide real-world adaptations to reach professionals where they are. Dr. Byrne's optimism about a synergistic future where AI, communication and healing intersect opens up exciting possibilities for the future of medical practice, which in many ways is already here—we just need to see it.
