About this episode

In this episode, Adam Sandell candidly discusses a serious medical error he made and the lessons learned from it.

We all make mistakes from time to time. Sometimes they're serious. Yet there's a culture of not talking about them, and this is a problem. So in this episode I tell you candidly about one of my medical errors. There are lessons for anyone who does work that matters and who worries about getting things wrong, or finds it hard to cope when they do. * * * ARE YOU GETTING THE EMAILS?
