Dr. Dawn Lim
“I love telling stories that connect the brain to the heart.

I am an emergency doctor at the University Health Network and an assistant professor of medicine at the Temerty Faculty of Medicine at the University of Toronto. I am also a freelance photographer and a non-fiction writer with a particular interest in exploring the habits that help people thrive.

I use storytelling to shed light on the shame-based culture of medicine. I want to advocate for a sustainable workforce in medicine through a deep reflection on shame resilience, empathy, vulnerability, self-compassion, and gratitude.

My work has been supported by a National Geographic Covid grant, and can be found in various national media outlets.”
