In this episode of Our Voices, Our Future we are excited to introduce the new hosts: Meghan, Meenu, and Laura. Each of us brings a unique perspective and a shared passion for advancing gender equity in medicine. We are deeply honored to carry forward the conversations that Joanna so thoughtfully began in her episodes, which laid the foundation for this important work.
During this episode, we talk about our vision for the future of Our Voices, Our Future. We reflect on the powerful groundwork Joanna created and share how we plan to expand the conversation — centering it more intentionally around gender equity in all aspects of healthcare, from medical education to leadership to global health. We discuss our personal journeys, why this work matters to each of us, and how we hope to inspire, inform, and advocate through this podcast. As we move into this next chapter, we invite our listeners to join us in shaping a future where every voice is heard and valued.
