Your awareness of where others are in their journey. The ability to meet people in their time, not just yours.

Dr. Danielle Ofri and the Death Declaration

Medium fit

Time Zone reflects how Dr. Danielle Ofri initially couldn't meet patients and families where they were emotionally. She was operating in medical student time, focused on proving competence and following protocols, while the Rodriguez family was in grief time, processing the peaceful death of their grandmother. The grandson's patience with her fumbling attempts to confirm death taught her to recognize where others were in their emotional journey and adjust accordingly.
