Are you leading your career or is it leading you? In this episode, my collaborator, Gretchen Rickards, MD, and I share our inspiration for our transformational retreat coming this Fall. 

Too often women in medicine feel stretched thin, wonder if their path in medicine is sustainable, and want to grow professionally but feel pulled in different directions. If this resonates, listen in to hear why our retreat is meant for you!

More information about the retreat is here. Or feel free to contact either one of us with questions!
