202. How to Stop Hiding Your Magic with Dr Carlos Yu
Description
In this episode, I sit down with Dr Carlos Yu, a self-described “odd” family doctor who has spent 35+ years quietly rewriting what it means to practice medicine as his full, weird, magical self. We talk about cold plunges in Lake Ontario, drum circles, ear acupuncture groups, and the deep privilege of witnessing patients when they’re open and vulnerable. Carlos shares how he moved from judging by appearances to practicing radical curiosity, sensory awareness, and presence in every encounter. Together, we explore how coming home to your body and the present moment can be a path back to your own weird, beautiful humanity in medicine.
