Empowering Women Physicians


Sep 13, 2022

Human beings are enthralled by stories and use them as tools to connect, to make sense of the world, to engage and transmit information from one person to another, one community to another, and one generation to another.  Our stories influence our beliefs and our culture.  Personal heartfelt stories engage our brain in unique and powerful ways.  We'll talk about why we encourage others to tell their stories inside EWP, why micro-mentoring matters, and why Social Learning Theory suggests most human learning occurs observationally through modeling.   One woman physician telling her story has the power to change the world around her.  Thousands of women physicians telling their story has the power to change the culture of medicine.
