Final Episode

This is the final episode of The JCSW Show, as I’ve moved on from Harvard Medical School. In 2025, I was honored to receive the Joseph B. Martin Leadership Award for the Advancement of Women Staff, which recognizes exceptional staff at Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Dental Medicine who have demonstrated leadership in promoting, retaining, and advancing women’s careers. I shared this episode at the award ceremony in June 2025 as a way to thank and highlight the many people who took the time and leap of faith to be part of this podcast. I’m incredibly grateful to everyone who contributed along the way, and I hope you enjoy this final episode. ---------------------------------------- Hosted on Acast.
