I am so glad I found your videos. So inspiring and supportive. I’m so happy for you and all that you’ve achieved. I start medical school in 2 weeks and am full of fear and excitement. This video has helped me so much as I have really had to battle the very negative opinions of people who are in my circle. I grew up in the US where I was always supported to dream big and go for my goals. But my husband who is British has a very different mindset. It’s held me back for 17 years! Well not entirely as I’ve had to combat a lot mentally to try and grow and achieve things in spite of his lack of support and actual negative behaviour that tries to mentally cage me in. I’ve managed to do things anyway, but it’s taken a lot more time and been very mentally and emotionally taxing. I have worked hard to be at the point I am now to start medical school and know that I will need to continue supporting myself, and lean on those friends and family who have a different mindset, who are loving and supportive and excited for me and this journey…and now your videos 😀 will be part of that. It’s going to take all of this support to get me through this momentous journey. Thanks to your videos, and especially this one, I can see very clearly why my fears are escalated even more than they might otherwise be because of these negative voices that constantly make me doubt myself. The good news is, that I can also see and hear my voice clearly that says “you’ve got this!”. Thank you and congratulations on all that you’ve achieved and will continue to achieve! ❤

Very inspiring! I'm in my 40's and starting my own journey to medical school! It's a dream I've had since high school but had fear holding me back all these years. After losing job of 10 years, and friendships that I thought would last a lifetime. I realized that blanket of security I thought I had was now gone. And I shouldn't let fear stop me from achieving what I want in life. We only have one life to live so why not make the best of it! Thanks for making this video! Really hit home! 🙂

You are very right. For me, your journey has been an inspiration. I came across another wiman who is studying to become a doctor and she is 52!!!! I am only 30yrs old and thought i was too old to make these big changes but i am going back to uni for something better too.

Hi Rebecca❤❤❤❤I've been following your journey to Medicine and I'm really inspired to go after my dreams....I can't even begin to imagine the excitement that you might feel now that you're in your final year...Congratulations you're truly an inspiration❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤ From South Africa

Please continue making these videos! my notifications are on . I am going to binge watch everyone of them now. I have only watched the first video about how to become a doctor at 37. Please continue with these videos❤ Thank you!

Brilliant advice. I love that you are not judgmental about those who may hold you back -not out of malice but often out of love/fear.

This is so important, I relate so much to this on my growth journey :)

"I can literally do anything" 🥺🥺

I am so glad you uploaded your videos back 😊 When I feel unmotivated, I always love to watch your videos again

You have inspired me more than you will ever know, to work on my mindset and have the courage to work towards goals I had only ever dreamed of! Thank you ❤

Hi Rebecca! Thank you for this video! Yaay!

Loved this your amazing Rebecca!!😊 surround yourself with good people and always leave behind the ones who try to bring you down!

Thank you for this video!

Hello Rebecca! Another great, inspiring, full of wisdom video!!! Thank you so much! Always look forward to watching your videos!

You are such an inspiration 💕🙏

Thanks for this Dr Becs♥️♥️♥️♥️

New to your channel but congratulations on qualifying soon! 🙂

You are an inspiration to me❤️

I am just wondering if people who keep you in the box and don’t want you to do something better with your life do actually love you. If you really love and care for someone, doesn’t matter how crazy their dream is, you do everything to help and support that person. I think it comes from a place of their own insecurities and envy. People always want you to do well but not better than them.

Great video, very inspiring!

Hi Rebecca. Thanks for the video. I'm watching from botswana..Africa

Wooooooo, Rebecca

May I still call you Becca or do I have to refer to you as Dr🤣🤣
