More Than Medical Students

Bienvenue dans ce nouvel épisode du Podcast Plus Que Des Etudiants en Médecine. Dans cet épisode j’ai le plaisir de recevoir Lila Bui, étudiante en médecine et sportive professionnelle dans la discipline du karaté.Le parcours de Lila est passionnant a écouter! Elle a grandi entre ses études et le karaté, en menant de front ses deux passions! Après son bac, Lila décide de se concentrer sur le karaté et d’aller aux championnats du monde, ou elle y remporte la première place en équipe, pour ensuite se tourner vers une PACEs l’année suivante et entamer le parcours pour atteindre son deuxième objectif: la médecine. Elle nous raconte comment elle a réussi à trouver l’équilibre entre cours, examens, stages d’externats, entraînements et championnats en France et à l’étranger. Lila est aujourd'hui en dernière année d’études de médecine et travaille comme coach de karaté en parallèle pour accompagner de jeunes athlètes dans leurs parcours. Un épisode passionnant où l’on parle de médecine, de sport, de famille et d’équilibre. Bonne écoute a tous !Nous retrouver:La page du podcast : @morethanmedicalstudentsL’hôte et créatrice du podcast : @mariannedoesmedicineRetrouver notre invité : Instagram @lila_buiMentionnés dans cet épisode: Livre recommandé par Lila: Ta deuxième vie commence lorsque tu comprends que tu n’en a qu’une

Dans cet épisode je reçois Elsa, @babydoc_e sur Instagram, une étudiante en médecine en dernière année qui est là pour aborder pleins de sujets qui touchent à la vie d’étudiant en médecine avec nous.Il y aura deux épisodes avec Elsa, dans ce premier épisode nous allons parler des sujets de santé mentale en médecine, notamment la difficulté de la première année et des stages d’externat. Elsa nous parle de façon très ouverte sur ce sujet que je trouve TRES important. On parle peu de cela en médecine en fin de compte : prendre soin de NOUS et de notre santé mentale. Que ce soit auprès de votre médecin généraliste, psychologue ou votre faculté n’hésitez pas a demander de l’aide si ça ne va pas en ce moment. Si jamais vous ou quelqu’un que vous connaissez souffre et se sent seul dans cette situation sachez que vous n’êtes pas seuls et que demander de l’aide est la chose la plus importante a faire ! Prenez soin de vous ! Nous parlons également de jobs étudiant et d’équilibre en médecine a travers les années entre les cours, stages et vie perso. Merci a Elsa de partager avec nous ces précieux conseils.Dans le prochain épisode nous parlerons avec Elsa de la réforme des ECN, Elsa fait partie de la première promo a être affectée par le réforme et elle nous en parle dans l’épisode prochain, un autre épisode a ne pas manquer. J’espère que vous apprécierez l’épisode, si c’est le cas n’hésitez pas à nous le faire savoir en nous écrivant sur les réseaux ou en nous tagguant dans vos stories ! Retrouver notre invité : Instagram @babydoc_eLa page du podcast : @morethanmedicalstudentsL’hôte et créatrice du podcast : Marianne de @mariannedoesmedicine  N’hésitez pas a nous laisser 5 étoiles et un commentaire si vous avez apprécié l’épisode et à parler du podcast autour de vous !

Commencer l’internat. C’est un saut dans l’inconnu, quelque chose que l’on attend depuis si longtemps, tellement différent des études, l’accomplissement de tant d’effort, terrifiant, excitant... tout cela à la fois! C’est vraiment un grand changement de vie et de travail, et un grand chamboulement pour tous les étudiants en médecine. J’ai déjà fait un épisode sur le Podcast sur mon experience des début de l’internat, mais je travaille au Royaume-Uni donc je voulais vous apporter à tous un point de vue différent et centré sur l’internat en France plus spécifiquement.
