"I’d like to share my appreciation for the Women in Leadership program run by MD2MD.  Joining the group has been a transformative experience that I am grateful for. The open and non-judgmental atmosphere of our meetings has allowed me (and others) to share thoughts and challenges in a safe space.  The wisdom and empathy from the group has helped me navigate through difficult situations.  I’ve gained valuable insights and learned from other’s experiences. Women in Leadership is a group committed to personal growth and empowerment.  The discussions explore subjects and experiences that are important to the members and allow help, guidance and coaching from others to find a path forward for that situation.  Having the support and encouragement from others in the group help me to handle situations that may have been more challenging if facing them alone. In summary Women in Leadership is a group of likeminded women who support each other. To any woman seeking connection, growth, and a supportive community, I would recommend joining these groups.  I always look forward to participating in our next meeting. "

"I have been privileged to have been involved with MD2MD this year, especially the Women in Leadership Group. Within the confines of a safe space, you will find an array of experienced, honest and dedicated women. The peer challenges have been enabled me to gain clarity and understanding of both myself and my role. Jo and Emma facilitate the sessions to exceptional standards and should be proud of the group they have created. I am very much looking forward to what 2024 will bring. "
