Dr. @RUBraveEnough, "Since the pandemic, I have had 200 personal conversations with women physicians who've said, 'I don't know if I can do this anymore.'"

Her tip: "Every woman who talks to you about work/life conflicts represents 10 more. See it as an opportunity."

#COVID19 has disproportionately affected careers of women in healthcare and science.

As I reflect on my own experience at work as a woman, a physician, and a leader, here are some things that make a big difference, to me and to the teams I lead:

[#GiveHerAReasonToStay 🧵]
➡️ Flexibility on when, where, and how we work
➡️ Professional development activities protected as part of the job – not “on your own time” extras
➡️ Supportive culture that is committed to employee wellbeing, and employees being themselves
➡️ Private spaces for meditation, massage, and exercise - and YES, we use them!
➡️ Paid parental leave and private rooms for lactating moms
➡️ Financial and time support to level up our skills and competencies
