In the newest episode of the Faculty Factory Podcast this week, we have the privilege of meeting Libby Ellinas, MD, MS, for an in-depth exploration of how culture can be transformed through hard work and collaboration, ultimately leading to the improvement of our institutions and the communities we serve.

During this conversation, Dr. Ellinas shares the encouraging story that led her to her current role and the creation of AWSM. Through her tireless efforts, she continues to build communities that elevate women’s leadership.
