Show Notes

Creating psychological safety for women of color and other BIPOC individuals creates an inclusive environment that promotes the well-being of your entire employee community.

Dr. Jessica Chen shares her experiences as a woman of color navigating the challenges of academic medicine and other healthcare spaces not designed to empower women of color. 

Listen to why she believes that women of color make the best bosses!

And, then consider what you can do as a healthcare leader to share your power and create resilient and supportive spaces for people of color. Hint, it starts with recruiting people of color or other marginalized identities who specialize in creating safe and supportive spaces to join your organization!

Dr. Jessica Chen is a clinical psychologist and Assistant Professor at the University of Washington. She has focused her career on trauma-focused psychotherapy and research designed to promote health equity for underserved populations.
