Darcy Chenoweth is a Montana-based Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner whose career sits at the intersection of medicine, trauma recovery, and the outdoor world. Darcy works with individuals and organizations—especially those in high-stress helping professions such as first responders, healthcare workers, and other frontline roles—to address burnout, trauma exposure, and the long-term impacts of stress. Her work blends psychotherapy, medication management, and practical tools that help people metabolize the intense experiences that often come with caring for others. Darcy grew up in Colorado's Front Range mountains, and later moved north to Missoula for college, drawn largely by the pull of the northern Rockies and the culture of Montana. Over the years, her life has included living off-grid in western Montana, working as an ER nurse in a small critical-access hospital, teaching backcountry emergency medicine around the world, and maintaining a parallel life as an artist working in ceramics. Those experiences—especially her years in emergency medicine and mountain environments—shaped her understanding of how trauma and stress accumulate in people who dedicate their lives to helping others. Today, Darcy's practice focuses on helping those individuals build awareness, resilience, and sustainable ways of engaging with difficult work while maintaining healthy lives outside of it. In this conversation, Darcy and I talk about the hidden drivers of burnout in helping professions, why community is essential for metabolizing trauma, and how modern life—despite all its conveniences—often strips away the friction and connection that humans need to stay mentally healthy. We also discuss the role of nature, trust, and shared experience in healing, along with Darcy's work supporting mountain communities through organizations like Mountain Muskox, which helps people process grief and loss connected to accidents in the mountains. Although much of Darcy's work focuses on first responders and other helping professionals, the ideas she shares in this conversation are relevant to anyone navigating stress, hardship, or big life transitions. It's a wide-ranging discussion about how humans process difficulty and how we can build lives and communities that help us come out stronger on the other side. Be sure to check out the episode notes for links to Darcy's practice, her work with Mountain Muskox, and several of the books and resources we discuss.

In this powerful episode, longtime HPNA member Linda Blum, APRN shares experiences from the last few years of her rich nursing career in volunteerism —training incarcerated caregivers in a California state prison hospice program. Linda explores the ethical complexity of end-of-life care behind bars, from POLST conflicts and CPR decisions to pain management in a correctional setting where Medicare rules don't apply.  Through ELNEC education and interdisciplinary collaboration, she's helping nurses, correctional officers, and incarcerated caregivers reclaim agency and restore dignity at the end of life. This conversation examines moral distress, serious illness communication, and the transformative power of “risking love” in some of the most marginalized settings.  A moving reflection on bearing witness, professional courage, and the light within us all. About Humane Prison Hospice Project  The Humane Prison Hospice Project is developing a humanitarian, cost-effective, and transformative solution to ensure that those aging and dying in prison receive compassionate care. Since 2017, the Humane Prison Hospice Project has worked to ensure that incarcerated individuals receive compassionate end-of-life care from trained peers. Humane implements a comprehensive 80-hour, 15-module curriculum to train incarcerated individuals as peer caregivers, equipping them with the skills to provide hands-on care and emotional support to their aging and terminally ill peers. Graduates of this program are part of a growing movement to humanize end-of-life care behind bars. Since launching this initiative, we have trained over 150 peer caregivers across California prisons, and are bringing our programming to three states—Michigan, Washington, and Oregon—marking our first step toward national replication. Learn more on their website: https://humaneprisonhospiceproject.org/  For anyone listening who has experience in hospice, nursing, programming in prisons or facilitating, and you live in CA, WA, MI, or OR, Humane is seeking volunteer facilitators who participate in trainings for peer caregivers in prisons across each state. We'd love to hear from you -- please reach out to Camila Ryder at camila@humaneprisonhospiceproject.org with your name, location, and any relevant experience.

Born and raised in New York State, she moved to the Bay Area over 45 years ago. Her early career included work in virology and immunology laboratories before she left a PhD program after the birth of her first child. She later worked as a birth doula and photographer and entered nursing school intending to become a nurse midwife. Instead, her path led her to the care of people with serious illness. She often jokes that she has a poor sense of direction and found end of life, not beginning of life, as she prefers anxious children to anxious parents.  Linda worked in home infusion and home hospice as a case manager and manager before returning to school for her at UCSF and then completing a palliative medicine fellowship at the VA in Palo Alto. She was  hired as the first clinician to provide palliative care/medicine consultation at California Pacific Medical Center.  Since retiring in 2023, Linda has volunteered her time and expertise with the Humane Prison Hospice Project, where she facilitates training for incarcerated individuals serving as peer caregivers. Her passion is helping to train nurses and professional staff in the carceral setting using a modified ELNEC curriculum.  Linda enjoys traveling, caring for her grandchildren, and telling silly jokes and puns.

Becoming a CRNA isn't just about mastering pharmacology, physiology, and airway skills. It's about mentorship. In this episode of Beyond the Mask, Kelly Elmore, DNP, APRN-CRNA joins the show to discuss one of the most critical and often overlooked elements of nurse anesthesia education: preceptorship training. From bridging classroom theory to real-time clinical decision-making, preceptors are the link between knowledge and confidence. And when that experience goes well, it can shape a career. When it doesn't, it can leave lasting scars. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

Why does losing weight feel so much harder after 40? If you found it easy to lose weight and build muscle in your 30s, but now those same strategies barely make an impact, you're not imagining things. Your body is following a new set of rules. In this episode, we break down what happens to your hormones, your metabolism, and your muscle mass as you age, and, more importantly, what you can do about it. We explore everything from GLP-1 medications and peptide therapies to creatine, protein targets, and why resistance training is non-negotiable for maintaining weight loss. Whether you're just starting your weight loss journey or you've hit a frustrating plateau, this episode will help you understand what's happening in your body and what to do next. How to Maintain Muscle Mass While Losing Weight Do resistance training 2–3 times per week Eat about 100 grams of protein per day  Take 3–5 grams of creatine daily Ensure you are properly hydrated- aim for 100 ounces per day Use peptides  Consider targeted therapies Track your body composition instead of using the scale Bio: Stephanie Gray Stephanie Gray, DNP, MS, ARNP, AGNP-C, ABAAHP, FAARFM, is a functional medicine provider who helps men and women build sustainable, optimal health and longevity.  A nurse practitioner since 2009, Dr. Gray completed her doctorate focusing on estrogen metabolism from the University of Iowa in 2011 and holds a Master's in Metabolic Nutritional Medicine from the University of South Florida's Medical School.

The endocrine workforce shortage is affecting the lives of endocrinologists and the patients they treat. Many practices would benefit from any support that would give endocrinologists more capacity to focus where they really need to. Could advance practice providers, such as nurse practitioners and physicians assistants, be able to provide that support if they had a little more training?   The Endocrine Society and the American Association of Nurse Practitioners? (AANP) think so. Together they have developed a new program called Clinical Advantage: Endocrinology Certificate for Advanced Practice Providers. What does the certificate represent, how does the program work?   To help answer those questions and more host Aaron Lohr talks with two guests who helped develop the program: Sara R. MacLeod, DO, MPH, Assistant Professor of Medicine at University of Rochester; and Shannon K. Idzik, DNP, CRNP, ANP-BC, FAANP, FAAN, Professor and Associate Dean for the Doctor of Nursing Practice Program at University of Maryland School of Nursing.   Listen to learn how Clinical Advantage is working to address the shortage.

In this episode, Randy joins Sharon and guest host Kevin Chem, DNP, CRNA to unpack his viral Substack article, “No One Is Coming to Save Us.” The core message is uncomfortable but clear: while anesthesia organizations remain divided over turf and titles, payers are quietly reshaping reimbursement policy in ways that could have long-term consequences for both CRNAs and anesthesiologists.

Adam Murray and Andrew Riche, Place To Be Nation's NBA-Team, are back at it after a less-than-festive All Star Break where the state of the league address by Adam Silver left one of our hosts pessimistic, to say the least. The tanks are already rolling out before we reached the All-Star Game, but is it forcing the league's hand to consider drastic changes or sit idly by while the playoff standings stay in idle? Why is Andrew so intrigued in this particular season by the Most Improved Award race with such a deep pool? Adam also discusses the very real possibility of third or fourth options winning MVP and All-NBA honors by default due to DNP's by superstars. So suit up and take it out in episode 379 with the NBA-Team!

In this episode of the Society of Critical Care Medicine (SCCM) Podcast, host Maureen Madden, DNP, RN, CPNP-AC, CCRN, FCCM, speaks with Javier Varela, MD, MSc, about his study, “Acute Bronchiolitis in Infants on Invasive Mechanical Ventilation: Physiology Study of Airway Closure,” published in the September 2025 issue of Pediatric Critical Care Medicine. The study revealed new insights into airway pathophysiology in infants with severe bronchiolitis who require mechanical ventilation, a population that comprises a substantial portion of winter pediatric intensive care unit (PICU) admissions worldwide. Dr. Varela is an intensivist in the PICU in the Department of Pediatrics at Clínica Alemana de Santiago, in Santiago, Chile. Differing ventilatory strategies and the heterogeneous phenotypes of bronchiolitis motivated Dr. Varela's team to investigate airway closure, which was detected in seven of the 12 patients included in the study. Airway opening pressure frequently exceeded the set positive end-expiratory pressure (PEEP) levels—highlighting a potential gap in traditional ventilator management. Dr. Varela explains that respiratory mechanics, particularly driving pressure and respiratory system compliance, can be misinterpreted when airway opening pressure is not considered. Study limitations included bacterial coinfection in nearly half the patients and the constraints of a single-center design, but Dr. Varela said that these factors did not appear to alter the physiologic observations. Although more research is needed before making clinical recommendations, the study established a foundational understanding of airway closure in patients with bronchiolitis and underscores the need for future work on personalized ventilation strategies, PEEP titration, and the potential heterogeneity of airway behavior in this population.

In this special episode, the conversation goes beyond anesthesia, leadership, and practice models and into something just as essential: friendship, health, and wellness. In a profession that is demanding, high‑stakes, and often isolating, the relationships CRNAs build with one another can be a powerful source of strength. Sharon is  joined by longtime friends Jackie Rowles, DNP, MBA, MA, CRNA, ANP-BC, NSPM-C, FNAP, FAANA, FAAN, Tracy Castleman,  DNP, CRNA, APN-A, FAANA, and Carole Doyscher, CRNA, BSN, MS, APRN—four CRNAs whose bond, known affectionately as the Fab Four, was forged through shared experiences, mutual respect, and plenty of laughter along the way. Together, they reflect on how authentic connection within the CRNA community supports resilience, personal well‑being, and professional longevity. Here's some of what you'll hear in this episode:

In this episode of the Destigmatize Mental Health: Hope In the Valley series, we are joined by Lorelei Punsalan, DNP, MSN, APRN, FNP-C, CNRN, CHSE, a powerhouse leader in clinical practice and community advocacy.Supported by the MAT Access Grant, this conversation dives deep into the unique challenges faced by the Filipino community in California. Dr. Punsalan brings her extensive expertise as a Doctor of Nursing Practice to explore the vital intersection of cultural identity and substance use recovery. From the weight of "saving face" and cultural stigma to the power of faith-based and family-centered engagement, we discuss how culturally grounded care is the key to breaking barriers in stimulant and opioid use treatment.

A4M just gave us a front-row seat to what's next in longevity care—here's what we're actually bringing back to Victory (and what we're leaving behind). In this episode, Amy Stuttle is joined by Anna Griffith, DNP at Victory Men's Health to recap the biggest takeaways from A4M in Las Vegas—the largest academic conference in the U.S. for functional and longevity medicine. They break down what stood out, what felt “bright and shiny” but didn't hold up under scrutiny, and what Victory is actually bringing back to patients. You'll hear practical insights on protein quality vs. just “eating more protein,” why amino acids (and leucine thresholds) matter—especially for those fasting or using GLP-1s—and the supplements they're most excited to add, including Perfect Aminos and Urolithin A. Amy and Anna also discuss one of the most talked-about topics at the conference: TB-006 and Galectin-3 as an emerging area of research for neurodegenerative disease symptom support, plus the complementary role of modified citrus pectin. They wrap with an update on the exploding peptide conversation—what's real, what's marketing, and why clinical oversight matters—and a look at new longevity tools Victory is adding at the new location, including VO2 max testing as part of a more complete longevity strategy. If you've been wondering what's next in longevity medicine—and what's worth your time versus hype—this episode gives you the real-world, clinician-level breakdown.

Would you believe that there's a medication that can quiet the constant mental chatter around food for the first time in your adult life, but it could also cause you to lose muscle, age your face, and trap you in a cycle that's hard to escape? Both of those are true. When a drug can help someone lose 50 pounds and get off diabetes medication, that's a miracle. But when that same drug leaves someone unable to eat, losing muscle, and facing a lifetime of injections just to maintain their weight—that's a conversation we truly need to have. So, today we're taking a deep dive into GLP-1s—Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, and what's coming next. How to preserve muscle when taking GLP-1 medications Consume 1.2–1.6 g of protein per kilogram of body weight daily, spread across meals  Try to eat something containing 25–30 grams of protein within about two hours after doing a strength workout Consume easily digestible protein sources when your appetite is low (shakes, yogurt, collagen, or bone broth) Commit to doing resistance training at least two to three times a week Monitor your body composition for any early signs of muscle loss  Bio: Stephanie Gray Stephanie Gray, DNP, MS, ARNP, AGNP-C, ABAAHP, FAARFM, is a functional medicine provider helping men and women build sustainable, optimal health and longevity.

Together, they discuss how healthcare providers can work in smarter, more integrated ways to meet the needs of aging populations.The conversation also highlights the growing importance of mobile health units — an innovative and practical solution for bringing care directly to rural and underserved communities. From preventative services to chronic disease management, mobile models are helping bridge access gaps, reduce barriers, and create more consistent touchpoints for older adults.With new funding streams and rural health investments emerging, this episode offers both insight and inspiration for healthcare leaders looking to build sustainable, community-centered models of care that honor both the complexity and dignity of aging.Guest: Kristi Wick, DNP, FNP-BC, GS-PHost: Amanda Laramie Thanks for listening!

A healing birth can change the way you understand everything that came before it. In this episode, Dr. Dekker talks with EBB Childbirth Class graduate Michaela Raines about experiencing a deeply healing birth after a first birth that didn't go as planned. Michaela shares her first hospital birth story—including unexpected interventions, a long pushing phase, perineal trauma, and a NICU stay—and how those experiences shaped her postpartum recovery. She then walks us through how education, intentional preparation, and support helped her approach her second pregnancy differently, leading to a fast, unmedicated water birth at a freestanding birth center. Michaela also reflects on how this birth felt both physically and emotionally redemptive and what she would share with parents preparing for a subsequent birth after a challenging experience.
