Growth Reflection

by Dr. Tonya Caylor
Jun 03, 2025

Here's an exercise that I hope you find useful.

Think of either past examples that you would define as your best self. Or think of the self you'd like to aspire to be.

Now, which of your strengths are you exhibiting? What happens internally for you? How does it impact your relationships? What's one small thing you can begin to practice to uplevel your day to day self?

(Caution - Please only do this from a place of abundance. Ie. No negative self-talk allowed. This is not to be weaponized to beat yourself up - just to continue to find areas and ways to grow.)

Realizing that made me want to write about one specific moment. Not to glor...
Progress Through Process
Iโ€™ve been spending a lot of time lately in complex work with many moving parts: helping design a longitudinal faculty coach training with the STFM CBME Faculty Coach Training initiative, and collaborating with colleagues through an AMA-funded Precision Medicine education grant with GAFP. In both projects, the challenge is the same: taking large, complex work and making it manageable. For me, th...
