Maiysha Claiborne MD
Dr Maiysha

Listening To Your Inner Voice
Maiysha Claiborne MD
Dr Maiysha
We have all the resources we need to succeed. I remember the very first time I took a call in residency. My senior resident told me that she had my back… but I couldn't stop being scared. We admitted 16 patients that night, and all the processes and responsibilities felt so new and scary. At some point I just realized I wasn't going to sleep at all...

Understanding the Meaning of Communication
Maiysha Claiborne MD
Dr Maiysha

I was speaking with ...
Rapport & Communication
Maiysha Claiborne MD
Dr Maiysha
The resistance to communication is actually a sign of a lack of rapport. I remember one time I was driving into a parking deck and I bumped into this grumpy parking attendant. I got my ticket and paid him. He sort of shoved the parking ticket in my hand and we just went our separate ways. I thought to myself "What is wrong with him? I didn't do any...
Mastering Communication
Maiysha Claiborne MD
Dr Maiysha
In communication we need to remember that we are doing the best we can with the resources we have. However, we can adapt. I'm an 80's kid. Back then, the way our parents communicated with us was different. Phrases like "because I said so", "When we go to the store, don't ask for nothing", "Back in the day, when I was your age…" were part of our upb...

I wanted to talk about incongruence in communication, and how you can actually improve communication by listening.

It's Possible to Figure Out the Real Message  Do you remember the show "Lie ...
