130. Mediocrity is a Survival Trait with Dr Frances Mei Hardin

An episode talking about mediocrity in medicine AND Taylor Swift? Well YES! I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with Dr Frances Mei Hardin. As a practicing ENT surgeon, Frances Mei challenges the notion of excellence and redefines mediocrity as a survival trait worth practicing. We discuss the impact of fear and intimidation in healthcare and the need for a shift in the culture to prioritize well-being in service of patient (and clinician!) safety. And then at the end of our chat I couldn't resist bonding over our love for Taylor Swift and discuss the different eras of her music!!
