"The more that I achieve, the more I realize that achievements have nothing to do with the value of who you are as a person." Psychiatrist, professor, and writer Adam Stern joins Zibby to talk about his debut memoir, Committed, which combines his medical experience with the story of his cancer diagnosis. The two discuss when Adam realized he had a story that has yet to be told, how psychiatrists approach mental illnesses in their personal lives, and what he's learned from living with 50/50 survival odds.
