About this episode

Tyra Fainstad, MD is an Associate Professor of Medicine at the University of Colorado where she is a primary care doctor and as teaching attending for Internal Medicine residents. She has a scholarship interest in learner-centered feedback, assessment bias, and psychologically safe educational environments. She is also a certified professional life coach and has created and co-directs an online group coaching program for physicians and trainees called Better Together Physician Coaching. Her purpose now is to create space for change through helping learners access inner validation rather than relying on external praise. She believes that teaching physicians to process emotions with vulnerability and unconditional love will be what saves our profession from burnout.
