作为一名第一年的实习医生，我很早就到岗了，对照顾危重病人感到紧张。我一个人呆呆地坐在工作室里，不知道该如何准备，尽管我加入了几个月的团契。那个资深的家伙在签到前几分钟就出现了；尽管她晚上很忙，睡眠不足，但精神抖擞，知识渊博，沉着冷静。她问我过得怎么样。我眼中含着泪水，我的情绪喷涌而出——我解释说我感到迷茫，对自己、对自己的位置、对自己的知识都不确定。我第一次大声承认：“我觉得我不应该在这里。我不知道我在做什么。”我可以信任她，而我不能信任其他人。她和我一样：被自己的身份所排斥，被社会边缘化。虽然她的身份和我不同，但她的身份让她能够理解我的经历。我们彼此不同，但我们也是一样的。不像那些资深教员，跟她说话很安全。而且，与我的其他同事不同的是，我们之间有一种异类的亲缘关系。她看着我，关上了门，和我分享了我需要听到的充满力量的话语——我属于这里。我已经足够了。她告诉我，我所经历的压力在系统中被边缘化的个体中很常见；她以前也有过这种感觉。坐在她身边，我终于得到了她的关注、支持和安慰。作为一个来自少数族裔背景的同辈导师，她给了我一种安全感和归属感，这是我在培训中所没有的，与资深教师的支持截然不同。
I arrived to my shift early, nervous about caring for critically-ill patients as a first-year fellow. I sat in the workroom alone, paralyzed, not sure how to pre-round despite being months into fellowship. The senior fellow appeared minutes before sign-out; fresh, knowledgeable, and calm, despite her busy night and lack of sleep. She asked me how I was doing. With tears in my eyes, my emotions poured out - I explained that I felt lost, unsure of myself, my place, and my knowledge. For the first time, I confessed out loud, “I don’t think I’m supposed to be here. I have no idea what I’m doing.” I could trust her in a way I couldn’t trust others. She was like me: othered by her identity, minoritized by society. Though different from my own, her identity allowed her to understand my own experiences. We were different from one another and we were also the same. Unlike the senior faculty, it was safe to talk to her. And, unlike my other co-fellows, there was a kinship between us in our otherness. She looked at me, closed the door, and shared words of strength that I needed to hear – I belonged. I was more than enough. She shared that the pressure I was experiencing was common among systematically minoritized individuals; she too had felt it before. Sitting with her, I was finally seen, supported, and comforted. As a peer mentor from a minoritized background, she provided a sense of security and belonging that had not been provided in my training and was distinct from the support of senior faculty.
