Under the Sisterhood
The Under the Sisterhood Podcast is where women's lived experiences become a catalyst for understanding, connection, and change.
Hosted by Elizabeth Elfenbein, each conversation invites women from around the world to share their stories with honesty, courage, and vulnerability. Together, they explore the moments that shape our lives—from health and mental wellness to leadership, identity, relationships, caregiving, equity, and the many experiences that define what it means to be a woman.
More than a podcast, Under the Sisterhood is a storysharing platform. Every conversation contributes to Women's Lived Experience Intelligence™, helping transform individual stories into insights that can shape healthcare, innovation, research, and culture.
At Under the Sisterhood, we believe every woman's story matters. Through storysharing, we create space for women to be seen, heard, valued, and celebrated—one conversation at a time.

Today we’re getting under the hood with Dr. Latha Alaparthi a daughter, sister, mom, wife, women’s advocate, and a physician.
Latha completed her medical degree in India and moved to CT in 1993. After completing internal medicine Gastroenterology and Hepatology training at the Yale University hospital system, she began her career as a gastroenterologist in private practice in 2001.
During her nearly 22 years of practice, Latha was involved in several leadership roles within and outside of her practice, including running the practice for 6 years as Managing Partner, President of the medical staff of a Community hospital, and recently President of a physician and patient advocacy non-profit organization.
She is most proud of her strong beautiful daughters and the women she has crossed paths with during her personal and professional life. She believes in lifelong learning (recently received an MBA online), women in leadership, and equal opportunity, and is passionate about access and quality in healthcare.
