In this punchy, matter-of-fact episode, Dr Diane breaks down five evidence-backed truths about untapped potential that most clinicians never fully recognize - and why staying stuck is far more costly than making a change. If you’ve been feeling unfulfilled, underutilized, or uncertain about your next step, this episode will challenge your thinking and help you see yourself with greater clarity and conviction.

• Why most clinicians underestimate their transferable value
• The psychological and neurological consequences of staying misaligned
• How rapid shifts in healthcare are outpacing traditional clinical roles
• Why purpose and fulfilment are not optional - they’re essential
• The critical link between action, confidence, and untapped potential

• You are not stuck because you lack ability - you’re stuck because your environment no longer reflects your strengths
• Misalignment chips away at confidence over time
• New and emerging roles require the very skills clinicians already possess
• Fulfilment is a professional necessity, not a luxury

Potential only becomes visible when you move.
