Summary

Neurosurgeon Dr. Mark McLaughlin sits down with Lewis Howes on The Daily Motivation Show to unpack the moment a young patient's tragic outcome sent him into sixteen years of silent guilt. He reveals how tracking down that boy's family years later completely rewrote the story he had been telling himself about failure, control, and what it really means to show up for your work.
