On this week\u2019s episode, recently elected President of The Australasian College of Sport and Exercise Physicians (ACSEP) Dr Louise Tulloh joins us to chat about overcoming barriers for women in medical leadership. Earlier this year, Dr Tulloh became the first female President in ACSEP\u2019s 34-year history.<\/p>\n

The ACSEP is one of 15 specialist medical colleges in Australia, of which only two other presidents are women. With Dr Tulloh as President, ACSEP\u2019s two most senior leadership positions (President and CEO) are now held by women.<\/p>\n
