First up, Dr @gradydoctor doesn't need an intro to #medtwitter. Featured everywhere from @ACP to @BET, her power of narrative story telling is legendary. She is a force on EVERY level. A mentor, sponsor, advocate, physician, colleague, rockstar. Her lecture is NOT one to miss
Dr. @MVGutierrezMD transitioned into a new leadership position and has thrived. She is an inclusive, inspiring, and powerful leader as the Chair of the Dept of Rehab Medicine at @UTHealthSA. Her talk will provide skills and tools for anyone undergoing a transition at work.
Dr. @JFreischlag is the CEO Wake Forest Health and President Elect of @AmCollSurgeons. She continues to break countless #GlassCeilings in her career as a prominent Vascular surgeon and she has an innate ability to motivate and inspire others.
One tweet is not enough space to describe this dynamic twin sister physician duo @DrBrandiJ@DrBrittaniJ. Founders of the The Institute for Antiracism in Medicine, featured on @TheEllenShow@BET, prolific speakers, relentless advocates, and leaders across the healthcare space.
One of the biggest challenges we hear from #WomenInMedicine are strategies in negotiating. Professor Tanya Menon is an expert in the art of negotiation. Her @TEDTalks can give you a sample of what to expect at this years #WIMSummit. Another session not to miss!
This last year and a half has been a marathon for healthcare workers across the world. In Illinois Dr. Ezike has led the state through this pandemic and saved countless lives with her public health messaging, recommendations based in science, and incredible leadership.
Dr. @FrugalPhysician will be discussing finances and empowerment through smart decision making. She helps professionals design their ideal life through selective frugality and common sense investing. She is also a contributor @CNBC personal finance site. We all need this session.
The always brilliant @LaurieBaedke's topic is especially relevant this year. How to reboot. When coming out of, or entering into, a challenging situation, how does one land on their feet and thrive? Succeeding through a transition requires certain skills. Learn them here.

Sharing a thread 🧵 of some amazing #WomenInMedicine who are making a difference and using their voices to change the narrative. Sharing a few pieces here that came out today with different reflections on this years #WIMSummit@doximity
First up @RakheeBhayaniMD kicks off her powerful piece (her first OpEd!) “Empower. Educate. Elevate. Those are the words that come to mind as I reflect on my experience at the recent virtual #WIMSummit.”
Next @CShoush shares how this years #WIMSummit helped her find her voice. “ I now counteract “What makes you special-why you?” With a newly energized, inspired and courageous rebuttal. Now I respond with “Why not me?” And then I take the step forward into the unknown.”
