In this episode of Powerful Women: Off the Record, Julia Faller shares a powerful story about building a meaningful career, raising a family, and leading with empathy — all while staying deeply connected to community and purpose.

From moving from Canada to the United States as a young military wife, to entering medical school with an infant at home, Julia reflects on the importance of partnership, resilience, mentorship, and finding strength through the people around us.

Now a physician and healthcare executive, Julia opens up about the realities of leadership, the responsibility that comes with influence, and why empathetic leadership matters more than ever.

This conversation explores:

• Building a career while raising children

• The importance of supportive partnerships

• Women in medicine and leadership

• Mentorship and lifting others up

• Leadership responsibility and emotional intelligence

• Community, family, and finding balance

This episode is a reminder that leadership does not always arrive with a grand plan — sometimes it grows quietly through service, consistency, and showing up for others.
