Women have played a pivotal role in advancing critical care, yet historical and cultural barriers have often limited their participation and leadership. This session will examine the evolution of these constraints and their impact on professional opportunities. Strategies for integrating career planning with work-life balance while navigating the unique challenges of intensive care medicine will be explored.
