In a culture of unhealthy comparison and burdensome perfectionism, how do we cultivate an openness to getting it wrong? … Like, really get down and dirty with failure and understand how necessary it is for growth and basically learning anything at all. Dr Jin Russell's intimidating bio reads like the ultimate perfectionist's achievement list. She's a Consultant Developmental Paediatrician at Starship Children's Health and a researcher in public health, investigating the impact of poverty on children. She's won clinical awards, competitive research grants, has multiple degrees including a PhD, and sits on several boards. She's spoken publicly on behalf of vulnerable children. Oh, and she's a mum – no biggie. Yet in spite of her achievements and accolades, she's keenly interested in what failure can produce in us, and how to pursue excellence without being weighed down by the impossible pursuit of perfection.

A third NCEA exam season warped by COVID-19 is underway, with much discussion around how to get young people engaged. Yesterday we spoke to community paediatrician Dr Jin Russell about how best to support students who have had yet another difficult year - and it's not sitting them down and forcing them to study. And last week Associate Education Minister Jan Tinetti said schools were reporting lower levels of NCEA achievement than usual. Today we're looking at whether universities are also having to adjust expectations… here to discuss is Auckland University's Pro Vice Chancellor Education, Bridget Kool. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

But as school and university exam seasons fast approach, a friendly reminder that teenagers cannot always conjure up motivation... even if they know they're meant to be studying. Doctors are urging parents to take a step back and give them space to figure it out, while supporting them where they can. Community pediatrician Dr Jin Russell joins us now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Welcome to part two of our new series of conversations with women and men who are seeking to follow Christ in the whole of life. Today, host Sam Bloore is joined by Dr. Jin Russell to talk about what a "portfolio career" means, why she's so passionate about children and families, and what it means to pursue excellence rather than success.Throughout her life and career, Jin has responded to a call to know, understand, and care for the health and wellbeing of children and families. She is a Consultant Developmental Paediatrician at Starship Children's Health and a Community Paediatrician with Planning, Funding, and Outcomes at Waitematā District Health Board. Outside of her clinical work, Jin is working on a Ph.D. with "Growing Up in New Zealand" the country's largest contemporary longitudinal study of child development. Her research in epidemiology looks at the impact of poverty on children. With the arrival of Covid-19 in Aotearoa two years ago brought another aspect to Jin's public work: thanks to her expertise in paediatric care and epidemiology—and a calm, thoughtful approach to good communication—Jin has become a significant voice in traditional and social media, communicating the needs of children in the nation's Covid-19 response. In this episode, Jin shares openly about her career to date and what energises her busy work and home life: she describes being sustained by God's grace, walking in-step with the Holy Spirit, and drawing on her commitment to the health and well-being of others. She also shares how her passion for child and family care extends into the joys and challenges of home life, raising two young boys with her husband Matheson and serving on the board of the Parenting Place. This episode offers a powerful and compelling picture of friendship with God, in the midst of the challenges and joys of working life. We know you'll enjoy it.

Concerns have been raised about masks not needing to be worn at schools.  Now in Orange, masks are still compulsory at retail stores, public transport and planes or when visiting a public or healthcare facility.   But they're dropped for hospitality patrons and in schools.  Developmental paediatrician Jin Russell told Kate Hawkesby while it's not mandatory - it's still strongly recommended.  She says the pandemic's not over - there are still thousands of Omicron cases circulating in the community and some of those will pop up at schools. LISTEN ABOVE

The core work of being a physician is demanding enough. But if you're seeing patients come in day after day with ailments that have social determinants behind them, you may start to feel like Sisyphus; heaving that boulder up the hill only to have to start from the bottom every time it slips your grasp. Surely it would be better to change those socioeconomic drivers but where do you even begin? In fact, the three word mission statement of the RACP is Educate - Advocate – Innovate.  In this podcast, former General Manager of Policy and Advocacy, Patrick Tobin, explains how the College helps physicians put cases of health equity to those in power.  We hear from Kids off Nauru champion Dr Helen Young, and Dr Jin Russell explains how to harness social media to capture the attention of politicians and journalists. The interviews are drawn from an RACP-produced documentary called The Advocate's Journey hosted by Dr Robert Lethbridge. It is ever-more relevant given the high profile of public health in recent times. GuestsDr Rob Lethbridge FRACP (Perth Children's Hospital)  Dr Helen Young FRACP (Royal North Shore Hospital; The Children's Hospital at Westmead) Patrick TobinDr Jin Russell FRACP (Starship Children's Hospital; University of Auckland) ProductionWritten and produced by Mic Cavazzini DPhil.

Uptake of the Covid-19 children's vaccine is expected to be high. From this morning, almost half a million kids aged between five and 11 are now eligible for the children's Pfizer dose. In preparation for the rollout, 120-thousand doses of the paediatric version of the vaccine have been delivered to 500 sites across the country. Starship Hospital Developmental Paediatrician Dr Jin Russell told Tim Dower most parents appear to be on board. Russell says some parents will take a bit longer to make their decision. “I'm hearing from a lot of parents who are feeling positive about it because they're keen to get their kids back into school and want to see as little disruption to schooling this year as possible.” LISTEN ABOVE 

A paediatrician says she's pleased Pfizer vaccine rollout for five- to 11-year-olds will likely begin next month. The Government's signalled it expects to begin the programme in January, subject to Medsafe approval. Dr Jin Russell told Heather du Plessis-Allan that will align us with our Trans-Tasman neighbours. She said we've heard the Australians were planning to start in mid-January, and we didn't want to lag behind them. LISTEN ABOVE
