In this episode, Dr. Austin reflects on the podcast's future and her forthcoming autobiography, "Revitalized: A guidebook to rediscovering your heartline while doctoring," including past experiences of gender bias and the shadows of sexual harassment in the medical field. She discusses how these experiences have shaped her career and inspired this podcast. Yet, this isn't the entire story- there is a larger narrative about healthcare change that she's excited to explore with listeners.

“I am ready for this podcast to reboot. The writing process helped me heal and, while the scars of gender bias and sexual harassment will always be there, they don't have to be the entirety of what we talk about on this podcast. The podcast will go on a break and when it returns it will be called Revitalizing Healthcare." -Andrea Austin

Dr. Austin examines the lingering impact of gender bias, reflects on the ways it impacts our professional identities. Peering through the lens of her master's thesis, 'Creating Changemakers to Revitalize Medicine,' she sheds light on the challenges ahead and the pathways to progress.

Dr. Austin ends the episode by looking ahead to the podcast's future. She and her guests will continue to share stories about sewing the seeds of change, advocating for a healthcare environment that works better for patients and healthcare workers. The upcoming break is not an end but a crucial intermission. This period of reflection and rejuvenation is a catalyst for evolution as the podcast will return with a new name, Revitalizing Healthcare.

Join us as Dr. Segal invites listeners to align one's work with their innermost drives, crafting a medical career that resonates with personal fulfillment, meaning, and joy.

"I had to nurture it outside of medicine for the most part initially, but I think that’s what sort of come more into my life in the past five years like since I’ve been doing coaching and facilitating that I’ve been able to incorporate that more into my career because that type of work allows that creativity with the coaching like there’s just more flow and you can add more creative aspects to it. So it’s sort of revitalized my job in a way within sort of the confines of traditional medicine. There is not a lot of room for creativity, so I kind of had to nurture it outside of that but it’s been nice to sort of incorporate it a bit more with my wellness work and leadership work." -Dr. Mikel Segal
