Interventional Cardiologists Dr. Michael Chan and Dr. Daniel Menees asked to join Bill for a week in the cath lab and sat down to discuss the impacts of asking for help.  

The heart of our exchange beats around the courage to be vulnerable and the strength found in community. There's a raw honesty in admitting that sometimes, despite all our expertise, we need to reach out for help.  Michael and Dan peel back the curtain on their own experiences with workplace stress spilling into home life, sharing their strategies for resilience. It's a reminder that even as we scale professional peaks, the base camp of supportive relationships remains pivotal. And as we navigate through failures and build trust, we gather invaluable lessons about risk-taking and leaning into the fears that often signal growth opportunities.

As we close the loop on this episode, the resonance of parenting, self-reflection, and the continuous journey toward self-improvement lingers. We underscore the need to give our children the space to chart their own courses, just as we must do for ourselves. The conversation extends an invitation to embrace community within the CTO space and beyond, advocating for the power of solidarity in our collective mental well-being. It's not a monologue—it's a call to action for every listener to reach out, share, and fortify the message that in our most human moments of struggle, we are never alone.
