Description

Can breaking the mold be the key to success in healthcare? Dr. Bayo Curry-Winchell (“Dr. Bayo”, sounds like “bio”) discusses how rejecting the traditional path and embracing challenges led her to advocate for change.
Dr. Bayo is a family medicine and urgent care doctor who is a nationally recognized health equity advocate. She is also the founder and host of the podcast Beyond Clinical Walls. Her mission is “to provide accessible health information for all people.” Dr. Bayo discusses the significance of perseverance, embracing failure as a learning tool, and the power of a genuine voice.

My Key Takeaways:
1) Individuality is your strength
Dr. Bayo’s message about the power of individuality really resonated with me. Her ability to balance being a physician, public speaker, and television personality is a powerful reminder for young women to celebrate their differences and pursue multiple passions. Our individuality is what makes us stand out and can be the key to our success.
2) Challenges shape the person you are becoming
Dr. Bayo emphasized the importance of not letting anyone dim your light, and how challenges shape your character and make you stronger. This is a powerful message for teenage girls: the challenges we face today are preparing us for what’s ahead, helping build resilience and become the person we’re meant to be.
3) Mistakes are an opportunity to learn
Dr. Bayo shared an empowering perspective on failure, explaining how mistakes are part of her daily experience. Instead of letting them weigh her down, she chooses to honor those moments and learn from them. Her message to young women is clear: success is built on growth, and growth often comes from the times we stumble.
