1. Agree @kimkellymd, equity, diversity and inclusion cannot be achieved without deliberate sponsorship and mentorship. Although I can’t speak to the experience of identifying as a woman, I can speak to my own experience as an Indigenous physician. Beginning of a thread.
2. My ancestry is Anishinaabe, Cree, Metis and Polynesian. My extended family survived residential school and the sixties scoop. I was the first person in my family to consider medicine as a career.
3. My Dad did a Masters in educational administration and has been in management or training roles most of his life. My Mom worked at home full-time. My family didn’t have a lot growing up. We always had enough, but that often meant my parents went without.
