Healthcare communications executive Stacey Moore and dermatologist Susan Taylor, MD, FAAD, have launched Polished Not Perfect, a podcast exploring the professional and personal challenges of career advancement, leadership, and balancing competing responsibilities.
Longtime friends and established leaders in their respective fields, Moore and Dr. Taylor bring decades of experience to conversations about professional growth, family relationships, workplace expectations, and navigating life's uncertainties.
Moore is CEO of Physician Resources, LLC, a woman-owned medical communications company specializing in continuing medical education, healthcare conferences, and strategic communications. Dr. Taylor is the Bernett Johnson Endowed Professor of Dermatology at the University of Pennsylvania Perelman School of Medicine and immediate past president of the American Academy of Dermatology. She is also a Practical Dermatology Editorial Board member.
A New Platform for Conversations About Professional and Personal Growth
The podcast features approximately 20-minute episodes released twice monthly. Recent discussions have addressed learning to delegate, raising daughters, and confronting gender stereotypes and assumptions.
"When Susan and I started Polished Not Perfect, we figured we would share a few stories, have some laughs, and maybe offer a little wisdom from lessons learned the hard way," Moore said. "What we didn’t expect was how many women-and men-would connect with our conversations."
The podcast is also intended to serve as the foundation for a broader resource community, incorporating educational webinars, social media engagement, suggested readings, and conversations with invited experts and thought leaders. The hosts have announced plans for a virtual discussion series featuring hour-long webinars beginning in January.
Produced by Physician Resources, LLC, Polished Not Perfect is available at PolishedNotPerfectWomen.com and through major podcast directories.
