A Dream That Changed Everything: From Dropout to Psychiatrist - Mick Unplugged | Judit Orloff

I had a dream at a certain point in my life, a night dream, that told me to get an MD and become a psychiatrist in order to have the credential to legitimize intuition and empathy in traditional medicine. And this was at a time when I had dropped out of school and I was living with my boyfriend in Venice Beach. And that isn't what I really wanted to do. I came from a whole lineage of doctors, and I was more creative and a writer. But I enrolled in one class at a junior college and one became, two became 14 years of medical training. And so here I am, years later as a psychiatrist. Her profession for me.
