In this episode, Dawn Baker talks with Jenny Kelly. Jenny is a pediatrician who divides her clinical time between a community health center in rural Arkansas and an integrative pediatrics consulting practice in Little Rock, Arkansas.  Currently pursing a masters degree in clinical mental health counseling, Jenny is committed to expanding her skills to better help her patients and their families.

Jenny's career journey is unique because she took a seven year break from clinical practice and later returned to combine rural primary care with integrative medicine consulting. She shares the circumstances of her time off and how she designed the diverse clinical work she's doing now.

I met Jenny at the Revitalize: Physician Renewal CME Conference and Retreat in 2025. I just returned from the 2026 retreat, which was also awesome. We're planning to continue the magic in 2027: Meet us in Springdale, UT at Cable Mountain Lodge right outside of Zion National Park for an amazing experience! Registration is now open, and you can check it out HERE!
