The latest multimedia series from HCPLive, The Medical Sisterhood is a monthly podcast spotlighting the unique issues confronting women who pursue careers in medicine created by Mona Shahriari, MD, assistant clinical professor of dermatology at the Yale University School of Medicine and the associate director of clinical trials at Central Connecticut Dermatology Research.
In our introductory episode, Shahriari shares her journey as the daughter of Iranian immigrants and reflects on her experiences as a female physician striving to find her place in a male-dominated field. Shahriari delves into her decision to create a new platform tailored to the needs of women in medicine after realizing that the traditional "seat at the table" often falls short for women. The Medical Sisterhood was born from her desire to build a supportive community for female physicians, where mentorship and shared experiences empower listeners to overcome professional and personal hurdles.
Shahriari previews upcoming topics, including work-life balance, debunking myths about having it all, navigating leadership roles, and addressing unconscious gender biases. She also introduces her "Four Fs" framework—fun, family, fame, and fortune—as a tool for evaluating opportunities. With insights from trailblazing women, panel discussions, and unfiltered advice, "The Medical Sisterhood" aims to inspire women in dermatology and beyond to pursue their aspirations without compromise.
Tune in monthly on HCPLive for empowering conversations that will help you build a fulfilling career and life! All episodes of The Medical Sisterhood will be available in a video format via HCPLive.com, with audio-only version available via Apple and Spotify.
