Welcome to another episode of the Med School Minutes Podcast. In this episode, we discuss the best options for Canadian students to obtain residency in Canada and the United States. One of our guests, Dr. Sareen, talks about her experience as a Canadian during the Match process and how she secured 24 residency interviews this year. Another guest, Fearghus Macdonald, gives his point of view on education in SJSM and how he views his future career as a doctor of medicine (either in the United States or Canada).

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
