<p>On this episode, I’m joined by Zahra Jaffry, the only female orthopaedic trainee on the Percival Pott rotation. We hear her life story of breaking outside the mould, looking for mentors, and sticking to her truth when the going got tough. Zahra is an inspiration to anyone who is thinking about medicine, but hasn’t seen someone like themselves do it before. She tells me about her family’s unwavering support, and we laugh over how our caring Asian mothers followed us on elective!</p>
