MelaninWhiteCoats Podcast


Welcome to MelaninWhiteCoats Podcast where we entertain and enlighten you on topics relating to society, medicine and culture. We explore the world of everything FOR US, BY US and REPRESENTED BY US. This podcast explores in what ways we can elevate ourselves as individuals and in our communities so that we can achieve universal liberation from the systems in place that attempt to restrict us. Tune in with us as we continuously challenge the status quo and emerge from the ashes as curator, innovators and creatives of the world we want to see and BE!

On this episode we have Dr. Manna, first generation Eritrean Physician and Anesthesiologist who imparts her wisdom regarding how to maintain motivation as a aspiring medical professional. We also discuss and ask the following questions

  • As a motivator to countless students, what does motivation mean to you? How do you maintain it on a day-to-day basis?
  • As a first-generation Eritrean American immigrant, straight from the roots of Africa, tell us about your journey to physician-hood. What were some of the challenges you faced coming into a vastly different culture in America?
  • What brought you into the publishing space for premeds? How difficult was it to create your book and any tips for those who want to create their own book?
  • Talk about the PreMed survival Guide! How has it helped countless students and why is there such a lack of information on how to get into medical school in our community
  • Tell us about your greatest challenge! How did you maintain motivation during that troubling time?
