What news! We're nominated for two @TheWebbyAwards, for our "Shame" series in the Health/Science category, and far more surprisingly, for our "Conversations" series in the Best Interview/Talk Show category (up against the great @jonstewart, @karaswisher, and more 🤯🤯🤯)...
To close out #WomensHistoryMonth, grateful for this interview with @nowthisnews.

Such a pleasure and a privilege to share the Blackwell story with the women who are its legacy. Loved this group and always honored to join conversations like it.
We were so fortunate to have @janicenimura lead the first book club for our female physician group (PWOC; Physician Women of the Cardiac Center) @HeartCare4Kids . A must read for female physicians and future female physicians.
