Have you struggled to find your fit in medicine as a PA? Have you jumped between medical specialties or practices trying to find the right fit for you and how you want to practice medicine? Have you thought about leaving clinical practice all together?

Join us today to hear from Michele Cambron, a PA and host of her own YouTube channel, The Medicine Couch. Michele struggled to find the right job for her after she graduated PA school, changing jobs three times in her first 2 years as a practicing PA. This led her to start The Medicine Couch, where she interviews other PAs and NPs in a variety of specialties, as well as in medicine-adjacent non-clinical careers.

Michele discusses how she was able to change her mindset when she started feeling like a failure so soon after graduation and how she channeled her desire to learn about the wide world of medicine into starting her YouTube channel. Listen in to learn how you can find your right fit as a practicing PA.
