Meghan Tveit, MS3: The Healer's Journey, Episode Two | The Healing Grove Podcast

The Healing Grove Podcast

This week I am excited to share the second interview I had with Meghan Tveit, our favorite healer-in-training. I caught up with her at the beginning of an overnight call on trauma surgery....in her 86th hour of continuous work.

In our conversation, Meghan reflects deeply on the ups and downs of this beautiful, emotional and rather exhausting journey, and despite the lack of sleep, she is characteristically inspired and inspiring.
Meghan Tveit is a third year medical student at George Washington School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. A member of the 2020 graduating class of Harvard and my eldest son's girlfriend, Meghan appeared on my doorstep when the world shut down and then spent 6 weeks "bubbling" with my family during quarantine, during which time I developed a deep love for her bright, fun, compassionate, thoughtful, and curious approach to Pretty Much Everything. I know you are going to love not only Meghan, but what she has to share about her journey on the path to becoming a doctor.
