As a mentor in the StarHills Sports Analytics Underrepresented program, I developed empathy and resourcefulness, both necessary skills as a future physician. This growth came about through solving an unexpected challenge. While leading discussions with the students about basketball analytics, I would notice the girls’ disinterest as they avoided eye contact and doodled away. As this continued , I aimed to find an inclusive activity to engage the girls so the program would be meaningful for everyone. I asked the girls about their specific interests and they enthusiastically shared their love for their favorite WNBA players. Although I was not very knowledgeable of the WNBA, I had found an entry point to their interests. “Which basketball player holds the record in the NBA / WNBA All-Star basketball 3-Point Contest?” I asked the class. While the boys shouted several incorrect guesses, all male athletes, the girls continued to stay quiet. This divide began to vanish as I showed them a clip of WNBA player Sabrina Ionescu breaking Stephen Curry's previous record, all the students staring in awe of her 3-point-shooting. Next, I tasked them with building “fantasy” WNBA teams and the girls’ immediately began passionately debating over statistics and players. With this tailored, inclusive approach based on the girls’ interests, a divided classroom became a space for engaging, productive conversations involving all students. Just as I noticed the girls’ silent feelings of exclusion and took initiative to understand their interests, my empathy motivates me to comprehensively understand the emotions and circumstances of patients. Also, I will utilize the resourcefulness I developed as a mentor to complement my empathy by using available resources and tools, creating thinking, and problem-solving when tailoring care to patients’ unique needs and circumstances. With both empathy and resourcefulness, I hope to create a personalized environment of healing for all my patients.
