In episode 28, Patrick Fink sits down with Dr Andy Dorais, emergency medicine physician, father, and backcountry skiing phenom, to discuss life balance and a career in medicine. Highlights include the importance of defining priorities, how a close call with an avalanche taught him a valuable lesson about consistency, and how he learned that same lesson in the hospital.
