Your name is your identity. It’s what you write down on every form. It’s what your family, friends, co-workers, patients, and even strangers call you. But what should you do when people mispronounce your name or you feel you have to change your name? In this solo episode, Dr. Meenal uncovers her own journey, when her name was mispronounced. That gave her a sense of validation, but ultimately affected her wellbeing and confidence. As a healthcare provider, she shares how to find the courage to correct others and urges parents to ensure their children’s names are pronounced correctly.
