Well-Being Enthusiasts 2026:

Learner Well-Being & Success is pleased to announce that BAILEY COX has been nominated as a WELL-BEING ENTHUSIAST - 2026

Bailey Cox
Bailey Cox is from rural Newfoundland and Labrador and is a first-year medical student in the Class of 2029. Outside of school, she enjoys spending time outdoors, music, movement, and connecting with people she cares about.

To me, well-being means being intentional about what fills my cup and making time for it, especially when life feels busy. Some days wellness looks like pushing myself through a hard workout, and other days it looks like a long walk with a good playlist, sharing a meal with people I love, or protecting my sleep. Ultimately, wellness is about building a life that feels full and good to live, in a way that still feels like me.

Learner Well-Being & Success is pleased to announce that HEATHER BARRY has been nominated as a WELL-BEING ENTHUSIAST - 2026

Heather Barry
Heather Barry is a second-year medical student in the class of 2028 who has always been passionate about advocating for physical and mental health & wellbeing. Her time serving in the Royal Canadian Navy, various years of post-secondary education including a bachelor of Kinesiology (2019), Master of Science in Physiotherapy (2021), ongoing Doctor of Medicine degree, 3 years of clinical Physiotherapy practice, and extracurricular initiatives such as the MUN Medicine Mental Health Paint Nights have all been driven by a genuine passion for caring for others, and encouraging self-care & holistic wellness. Creating spaces where people feel supported, connected, and cared for is something she finds incredibly meaningful and fulfilling

 

Learner Well-Being & Success is pleased to announce that CLAIRE NASH has been nominated as a WELL-BEING ENTHUSIAST - 2026

Claire Nash
I am a MUN medical student in the Class of 2029. Outside of medicine, I enjoy photography, reading, reality TV, walking my dog Willow, and spending time with the people I love.

Wellness to me means prioritizing my physical and mental health so I can show up as the best version of myself for the people around me. Throughout medical school, I’ve learned that balance is key, and that making time for the people and activities that bring me joy will always be important to me.
