Shownotes

How can physicians communicate better when they’re not in doctor mode or outside of their comfort zone? Talking to your spouse, family members, and nonphysician bosses are crucial conversations that affect your relationships and day-to-day life.  Dr. Penelope Hsu, a pediatrician, board-certified professional coach, and one of our coaches at The Happy MD shares some communication tips and strategies adapted to doctors and inspired by the book, Crucial Conversations: Tools for Talking When Stakes are High.

 


"You can't just shove your belief system, your values onto somebody else.  You have to at least have respect. You may not agree but the question isn’t who’s right or who’s wrong.  The question becomes, “If we’re both right then what?” - Dr. Penelope Hsu
