As women physicians, we are passionate and dedicated to providing the best possible care to our patients. However, the healthcare system can be challenging to navigate, and women physicians face unique obstacles that can lead to burnout, dissatisfaction, and even leaving the profession altogether.

That's why Dr. Andrea Austin and I founded Revitalize Women Physician Circle, a community that provides accountability, support, and inspiration to help women physicians overcome these challenges and achieve their full potential. We recently realized, however, that we had been running down this journey without a clear vision of what we really wanted to accomplish. So, we took a step back and reflected on our goals and vision for Revitalize.

We practiced what we preach and defined our "why."

Revitalize vision: Women physicians are empowered to innovate and influence medicine to value authenticity, respect and work-life harmony.

We realized that while our mission is focused on women physicians, our impact is much larger. We want to change the healthcare system by empowering women physicians to innovate and influence medicine with our values and perspectives.

So with a clear sense of purpose and direction, we defined our mission:

Revitalize mission: Revitalize connects women physicians and allies through innovative, value-based coaching methods that align trust, support, accountability and skill development to ignite the courage and clarity necessary to take bold actions, create change and thrive.

We believe that real change happens when we are connected with others who understand our struggles and support us in finding solutions. We are committed to providing a strong support network and meaningful connections for women physicians through innovative coaching methods that align trust, support, accountability, and skill development. Our goal is to ignite the courage and clarity necessary for women physicians to take bold actions, create change, and thrive in their careers and personal lives.

As women physicians, we face unique challenges and opportunities in our profession. By working together, we can develop the values, skills, and networks needed to overcome these challenges and change the healthcare system to better support women physicians and improve patient care. We are excited about the potential of Revitalize Women Physician Circle to make a positive impact on the healthcare system and look forward to welcoming new members to our community. Together, we can make a difference and create a more equitable and supportive healthcare system for all.

Sincerely,
Dr. Linda Lawrence Co-founder of Revitalize Women Physician Circle
