The challenge I had to overcome to become a doctor Hi everyone, I have a stutter, and for a long time I worried it might stop me from becoming a doctor. I recently made a video sharing the one thing I had to overcome to reach that goal—and the lessons it taught me about confidence and resilience. Even if you’re not aiming to be a doctor, I hope it can inspire anyone facing a challenge they think might hold them back. **Video:** [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMjzNaJc\_wU](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IMjzNaJc_wU) I’d love to hear if anyone else has faced something similar and how you pushed through.
