Dr. Erica Howe is a board-certified Hospitalist and a nationally known educator, wife, and mother to three kids. As a lifelong advocate for improved wellness in medicine, she founded the Women Physicians Wellness Conference in Grand Cayman in 2018 as a way of bringing women physicians together to share their struggles and their strategies for success. She believes that women are stronger together and wants to inspire them to find the courage, clarity, and community to succeed on their own terms, instead of someone else’s.
Her endeavors in teaching and mentoring have been recognized with a number of honors and awards including receipt of the Kathleen McCluskey-Fawcett Woman Mentoring Women Award, the medical student-elected Rainbow Award Finalist for “teaching the art of medicine by example”, and the Distinguished Chancellor’s Teaching Award, one of the highest honors given to educators at the University of Kansas.
In this Episode: You will feel like you are in a conversation with your best friend!! Dr Howe discusses her resets which started with answering the question "How are you doing?" with an honest answer, being transparent, and vulnerable with other physicians. She discusses what led to her mission with helping other women physicians and how she is doing that in a big way.  She also reveals her secrets for time management. 
Take Home Wellness Pearls: 
1- Tools to Find Clarity: Take time to determine where you want your career to go, make space to do it, and put out your "asks."
2- Start with being honest with the other doctors around you and continue to have those conversations.
3- Say No to what doesn't meet your needs anymore and protect that space you create by doing so.
