The poet Rilke has a well known poem about living the questions during life’s journey rather than seeking or expecting the answers to unfold in a predetermined way. A fundamental aspect of navigating a career in medicine. In this episode I am joined by guest host and second year medical student Palepoi (Poi) Gilmore. We had the chance to interview Dr. Jake Robson, a Gastroenterologist at Primary Children's hospital. In addition to being a course director of doctoring, he is also the faculty director of Echo Canyon House which is also my house. In this conversation, we ask Dr. Robson about the House model and his role. Most importantly we talk about the idea of living the questions on the road to becoming a physician. We talk about grit in the face of failure and navigating uncertainty. We talk about building community and having mentors who are willing to ask powerful questions instead of telling us what they think we should do. This episode is strong reminder that we do not have to have the answers but need to have space during medical training to find and live the questions.
