Weaving All of Your Sparks into Your Medical Career with Dr Katherine Raffensperger

This week I sit down with Dr. Katherine Raffensperger, a psychiatry resident with an MD/MBA who sees medicine and business as parallel, interwoven paths.

We get into how policy has reshaped mental health care, why leadership and communication should be explicitly taught in training, and what price transparency might mean for real people.

Katherine shares how entrepreneurship and interdisciplinary learning made her a better clinician, plus the practices that keep her grounded through intern year.

If you’ve got a spark outside “the box,” this episode is your permission slip to weave it in.
