Pediatrician and certified coach Jessie Mahoney discusses her article "Leading with love: a physician's guide to clarity and compassion." Jessie shares how a personal crisis involving her husband's severe depression forced her to abandon her training in logic and control for a more intuitive approach. She explains how the simple question "What would love do?" became a compass that transformed her decision-making in both the clinic and the boardroom. The conversation challenges the misconception that love is too soft for health care, arguing instead that it provides the necessary strength for boundaries and honest leadership. Jessie details how this shift from managing to connecting can fund wellness programs and heal the broken culture of medicine. Discover how a pause and a breath can offer the clarity that data alone never will.
