PERPETUA AND THE RISE OF CHRISTIANITY Colleague Emma Southon. The final segment discusses Perpetua, a young nursing mother and Christian convert in Carthage. Defying the Roman mandate to sacrifice to the emperor, she views suffering as redemptive rather than a punishment. Unlike Romans who viewed suicide by poison as honorable, Perpetua and her slave Felicity choose martyrdom in the arena, having their throats cut to demonstrate their faith, signaling the rise of Christianity.

"A lot of what we do is give patients hope. Give patients hope and listen to them. And that, in itself, is so healing. I think it's so healing and transformative, ...even if they don't get to where they were before, they become the best version of themselves that they can be." ~Elizabth Sult BSN, RN, NC-BC"In conventional medicine, the question is, what's the diagnosis? And once you know the diagnosis, then there's sort of these algorithms that, you try to see if they help. But in functional medicine, once you understand what's the diagnosis, the question is, really, why? Why do you have the diagnosis?And that's where these antecedents, triggers, mediators, all these kinds of ideas come from— to get to the why. But I like to say that the antecedents, triggers and mediators are kind of like Einstein's Theory of Relativity, right? Because an antecedents from one frame might be a trigger from another frame.And so, you know, getting to the real root cause. You might think, Oh, I got to the molecular medicine cause. But actually, it was a spiritual mal-alignment that caused the biochemical issue, because it caused all this stress and strain and all that trickles down to the molecular medicine."  ~Dr. Tom Sult MD, IFMCPAh-Ha MomentsFunctional Nursing asks a different question: Not just what's the nursing diagnosis? But, why is this happening?  And what does this body need to heal? It's about raising wellness so illness has less space to take holdThe Functional Nurse listens for patterns, stories, and turning points. Elizabeth and Tom highlight how powerful it is when Nurses can really listen, and help patients connect the dots in their own health journeyFunctional Nursing and Integrative Nurse Coaching are a natural fit. When Nurses combine root-cause thinking with coaching presence, patients feel seen, supported, and empowered to take steps that fit into their busy livesThe nervous system matters deeply. Functional Nurses learn about how long-term stress and fight-or-flight affect digestion, immunity, hormones, and healing, and why joy, safety, and regulation are essential parts of careThis work restores dignity and hope for patients and nurses. Links and ResourcesFunctional Nursing: A Functional Medicine Framework for NursesFunctional Nursing + Lifestyle Nursing Dual Certificate PathwayJust Be Well websiteBook: Just Be Well by Thomas SultEmail for questions: Integrative Nurse Coach Academy I Integrative Nurse Coach FoundationWe provide nurses with a global community for learning, networking, and reconnecting.

On today's episode, I chat with Kelsey Garlock, mom of three and founder of Move Mama Apparel, about creating breastfeeding clothing that's both functional and stylish. From invisible zippers to full-coverage swimwear and tennis dresses, Kelsey shares how her designs help moms feel confident and comfortable while nursing (without the awkward flaps, clips, or bulky covers). If you're a new mom, or mom to be, this episode is packed with practical advice and inspiration for making breastfeeding easier, more comfortable, and more sustainable! Kelsey Garlock is a mom of three girls and founder of Movemama Apparel. Her breastfeeding journeys were filled with challenges like low supply, tongue ties, and a lack of education and confidence. With the support of lactation consultants, she finally saw progress and had to work hard, often pumping around the clock and struggling with nursing in public. She found herself constantly undressing, feeling cold and exposed, and frustrated with covers that didn't work.That's when the idea for a 2-directional invisible zipper sweatshirt was born to have something stylish, functional, and designed to make moms feel just a little more like themselves.With Movemama Apparel, Kelsey set out to make life a bit easier for breastfeeding moms. Thoughtfully designed for comfort, confidence, and longevity, her pieces help women feel good about investing in a wardrobe that supports them through motherhood and beyond.You can find Kelsey on Instagram here and her website here.Ways to work with me: Join the Mind Your Hormones Method, HERE!

After a behind-the-scenes moment with mentors that shook her perspective, she unpacks a core issue holding nurses back from real impact: the inability to receive. This episode explores how nursing culture conditions martyrdom, why under-earning is not ethical, and how learning to receive money, praise, and support is essential for leadership, sustainability, and changing healthcare. If this episode makes you uncomfortable, that is the point. Discomfort is where deconditioning begins.In this episode, Laura shares:Nurses do not have a money problem. They have a receiving problem.Nursing culture rewards overgiving, endurance, and martyrdom while discouraging receiving.Impact in private practice is not based on hours worked but on outcomes created.Underearning does not make nurses more compassionate. It makes them exhausted, resentful, and exploitable.Learning to receive is an ethical responsibility if you want to lead and create change.Money creates safety. Safety creates clearer thinking. Clearer thinking creates better care.Private practice and nurse coaching force growth by requiring nurses to receive without guilt.Martyrdom is not moral high ground. It is a business model, and nurses have been the product.Receiving allows you to give from excess, alignment, and regulation instead of depletion.You cannot heal healthcare while financially depleted and resentful.If nurses want to lead the next evolution of healthcare, they must unlearn martyrdom and master receiving. Receiving is not greed. It is regulation, capacity, and leadership in action.Watch full episode on YouTubehttps://youtu.be/554LgCwFq3gIf you loved this episode…Please take 30 seconds to subscribe, rate, and leave a review — it helps more nurses find this work and fall in love with the boring parts too.Mentioned in this episode:Join NLCA Cohort 6https://www.nurselifecoachacademy.com/certification

Episode Summary    In this inspiring episode of WarDocs, we are honored to feature the extraordinary journey of Retired Army Brigadier General Clara Adams-Ender. Rising from humble beginnings as one of ten children born to sharecroppers with limited formal education, she defied expectations to become a trailblazer in military medicine. Her story is a testament to the power of education, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of excellence. Although she initially dreamed of becoming a lawyer, she honored her father's wishes to attend nursing school, a decision that launched a remarkable 34-year career culminating in her service as the 18th Chief of the Army Nurse Corps.    BG(R) Adams-Ender shares powerful anecdotes that defined her leadership philosophy, starting with her first assignment as a Second Lieutenant in an ICU. She recounts a tragic incident involving a Marine shot by a friend during horseplay, a moment that taught her the stark difference between "book learning" and the practical responsibilities of an officer to care for the discipline and safety of troops. She also details the grit required to become the first woman to earn the Expert Field Medical Badge (EFMB). Refusing to settle for the lower physical standards set for women at the time, she marched the full 12 miles alongside her male counterparts, proving that competence knows no gender.   Throughout the conversation, she emphasizes the evolution of the Army Nurse Corps from a workforce viewed merely as labor to leaders in healthcare policy and administration. She discusses her time as an educator during the Vietnam War, mentoring students facing the draft and ethical dilemmas. General Adams-Ender passionately argues for the necessity of nurses having a "seat at the table" in healthcare leadership, noting that without a voice in policy, the profession cannot control its destiny. As the Army Nurse Corps approaches its 125th anniversary, she reflects on the core values of clinical excellence, administration, research, and education (CARE), offering timeless advice for the next generation of military medical professionals.   Chapters (00:00-06:40) From Sharecropper's Daughter to Nursing School (06:40-11:45) A Tragic Lesson in Leadership and Troop Welfare (11:45-17:15) Breaking Barriers to Earn the Expert Field Medical Badge (17:15-22:42) Educating Nurses During the Vietnam War Era (22:42-37:55) The Power of Policy and Having a Seat at the Table (37:55-45:34) Core Values and the Legacy of the Army Nurse Corps   Chapter Summaries (00:00-06:40) From Sharecropper's Daughter to Nursing School The guest discusses her family background, emphasizing her parents' deep value for education despite their limited schooling. She shares how she initially aspired to be a lawyer but followed her father's directive to attend nursing school, eventually discovering a passion for the challenge the profession provided. (06:40-11:45) A Tragic Lesson in Leadership and Troop Welfare Reflecting on her first assignment at Fort Dix, the guest describes the transition from academic theory to the practical realities of military nursing. She recounts a harrowing story of a young Marine shot due to horseplay, which served as a pivotal lesson on an officer's responsibility to maintain discipline and care for the troops beyond clinical duties. (11:45-17:15) Breaking Barriers to Earn the Expert Field Medical Badge The conversation shifts to the guest's historic achievement as the first woman to earn the EFMB. She details her determination to meet the same physical standards as the male soldiers, including marching 12 miles instead of the required 8 for women, viewing the grueling training as an opportunity to prove her capabilities. (17:15-22:42) Educating Nurses During the Vietnam War Era The guest describes her time as an instructor at Walter Reed, where she taught students from diverse backgrounds. She highlights the challenges of mentoring nursing students during the Vietnam War, helping them navigate their fears and obligations regarding deployment to a combat zone. (22:42-37:55) The Power of Policy and Having a Seat at the Table Moving into administration, the guest explains how she learned that writing good policy allows a leader to influence far more outcomes than hands-on care alone. She stresses the importance of nurses securing leadership roles to ensure they are in charge of their profession's destiny and not merely following orders from others. (37:55-45:34) Core Values and the Legacy of the Army Nurse Corps As the 125th anniversary of the Army Nurse Corps approaches, the guest reflects on the enduring values of the profession, using the acronym CARE. She concludes with a dedication to her mentors and offers advice to current nurses on maintaining standards and commitment to the mission.   Take Home Messages Leadership Requires Practical Adaptability Success in military medicine often requires unlearning the rigid structures of "book learning" to adapt to the practical realities of the environment. True competence is demonstrated not just by clinical knowledge, but by the ability to handle unexpected situations and the human dynamics of the troops under one's command. The Responsibility of the Officer Extends Beyond Patient Care A medical officer's duty is not confined to the hospital bed or the clinic; it encompasses the overall welfare, discipline, and safety of the soldiers. Preventing tragedy through discipline and looking out for the troops is as vital as treating the wounds that result when safety protocols fail. Equality is Proven Through Standards Breaking barriers and earning respect often comes from a refusal to accept lower standards based on gender or background. By voluntarily meeting the more rigorous requirements set for counterparts, a leader demonstrates resilience and capability that silences doubters and inspires the team. Influence Through Policy and Administration While direct patient care is the heart of medicine, long-term impact is achieved by securing a "seat at the table" in administration and policy-making. Writing effective policy allows a medical professional to guide the hands of thousands of others, shaping the destiny of the profession and improving care on a systemic level. Total Commitment to the Profession Medical service is difficult, demanding work that requires a full "all-in" mentality. The key to longevity and success is to make a firm decision to commit to the profession; once that decision is made, energy should be directed toward the mission and patient care rather than complaints or negativity.   Episode Keywords Clara Adams-Ender, Army Nurse Corps, EFMB, Expert Field Medical Badge, Military Medicine, Leadership, Women in Military, Black History, Vietnam War Nursing, Walter Reed, Nursing Education, Healthcare Policy, Mentorship, WarDocs, Army General, Brigadier General, Nursing Administration, Military History, Veteran Stories, Medical Podcast Honoring the Legacy and Preserving the History of Military Medicine The WarDocs Mission is to honor the legacy, preserve the oral history, and showcase career opportunities, unique expeditionary experiences, and achievements of Military Medicine.

This episode features Lily Man Lee Chan (School of Nursing, Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine, The University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR).   What is already known about the topic?   Progressive neurologic diseases involve complex, fluctuating symptoms and function decline. Palliative care aims to improve quality of life and symptom control. Access to palliative services is often limited to advanced disease stages or based on prognosis. Palliative care needs among people with progressive neurological diseases are understudied in Asian contexts.   What this paper adds? People with progressive neurological diseases experience significant palliative care needs related to physical, psychosocial, and spiritual concerns from the early stages of illness, highlighting the necessity of early palliative care based on individual needs rather than prognosis. Patients with progressive neurological diseases navigated complex psychospiritual distress, transitioning from negativity to life renegotiation by fostering acceptance, focusing on the present, and embracing a positive outlook despite ongoing disease progression and future uncertainties. Findings underscore the importance of adopting a person-centered holistic approach that incorporates psychospiritual support, suggesting a symptom-based palliative care approach.   Implications for practice, theory or policy Palliative care services should proactively assess and address the multidimensional needs of people with progressive neurological diseases from diagnosis onward, not only at advanced stages. Health professionals need to integrate psychospiritual care and facilitate timely, open conversations about future care preferences before cognitive decline occurs. Policy and service development should enable needs-based, flexible access to palliative care for people with progressive neurological diseases, and promote education for patients, families, and providers on the benefits of early palliative involvement.   Full paper available from:     https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/02692163251394908   If you would like to record a podcast about your published (or accepted) Palliative Medicine paper, please contact Dr Amara Nwosu:  a.nwosu@lancaster.ac.uk

On episode 532 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith welcomes back Dr. Renee Thompson, the CEO and Founder of The Healthy Workforce Institute. In the course of this wide-ranging conversation, Keith and Renee reminisce about the very early days of nurses hanging out on Twitter, dabbling in podcasts, and finding one another in the wider nursing universe. Keith and Renee also chat about nurse bullying and incivility, where we find the profession at this time in history, where we might be headed, and what might make things better. Importantly, Keith also reflects on his podcasting journey, and the fact that this will be last interview recorded for The Nurse Keith Show for the foreseeable future.

“People are not looking for a perfect, polished answer. They're looking for a human to speak to them like a human,” says Jessica Malaty Rivera, an infectious disease epidemiologist and one of the most trusted science communicators in the U.S. to emerge from the COVID-19 pandemic. That philosophy explains her relatable, judgement-free approach to communications which aims to make science more human, more accessible and less institutional. In this wide-ranging Raise the Line discussion, host Lindsey Smith taps Rivera's expertise on how to elevate science understanding, build public trust, and equip people to recognize disinformation. She is also keen to help people understand the nuances of misinformation -- which she is careful to define – and the emotional drivers behind it in order to contain the “infodemics” that complicate battling epidemics and other public health threats. It's a thoughtful call to educate the general public about the science of information as well as the science behind medicine. Tune in for Rivera's take on the promise and peril of AI-generated content, why clinicians should see communication as part of their professional responsibility, and how to prepare children to navigate an increasingly complex information ecosystem.Mentioned in this episode:de Beaumont Foundation If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

What does it mean to lead a movement? Michael Hurley, a veteran advocate and President of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions (OCHU/CUPE), joins Amie Archibald-Varley, The Gritty Nurse to discuss the grit required to protect the healthcare workforce. In this high-stakes episode, we pull back the curtain on what it truly takes to fight for frontline workers. Michael emphasizes that the current crisis in recruitment and retention isn't an accident—it's a policy failure. He highlights his work on the front lines of union leadership, focusing on the necessity of staffing ratios and the urgent fight to end violence against staff. From the history of illegal strikes to the modern-day battle against privatization, Michael illustrates how his work as Union President is centered on one goal: empowering workers to reclaim their profession through community mobilization and bold, collective action. Michael shares his transformative journey from healthcare worker to a fearless union leader, revealing why sometimes the most effective path to change requires the courage to take collective action. Michael breaks down the front-line battles he leads every day, including: The Blueprint for Staffing: Why mandated ratios are the only cure for a collapsing system. Holding the Line: Michael's fierce advocacy against the quiet creep of healthcare privatization. Safety as a Right: Addressing the "silent epidemic" of violence against healthcare workers and the legislative teeth needed to stop it. The Power of the Union: How Michael mobilizes communities to turn individual frustration into unstoppable collective power. This is a masterclass in advocacy for any nurse who has ever felt unheard. WHY ONTARIO NEEDS SAFE NURSE STAFFING LEVELS (OCHU Report) https://ochu.on.ca/wp-content/uploads/2025/08/Safe-nurse-staffing-Report_ENG_Final_WEB.pdf   More about Micheal Hurley Michael Hurley has been a hospital worker and a CUPE member since 1977. He was fired and convicted of contempt of court during the illegal 1981 Ontario hospital strike. He has been the President of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions since 1990. He is also the first Vice-President of CUPE Ontario as well as Regional Vice-President on CUPE's National Executive Board for Ontario. He is the proud father of two daughters. https://ochu.on.ca/history/ https://cupe.ca/michael-hurley-regional-vice-president-ontario About Ontario Council of Hospital Union (OCHU) OCHU was founded in 1982 following a very difficult hospital strike and forced arbitration decisions that were unfair to CUPE members. The seven CUPE regions and CUPE staff worked on a plan to improve the bargaining process, communications with members and locals, and the coordination between regions. They also recognized the need for the existence of a permanent decision-making authority between collective agreements. The plan developed was received favourably by all locals and led to the founding of the Ontario Council of Hospital Unions. About CUPE We've been together for over 50 years. We do different jobs that require different skills. We are diverse – from all sorts of backgrounds in all corners of the country. But we're connected by a common purpose. Together we've fought for the things that matter most. Fairness. Equality. Dignity. There's still much to be done before we have a truly just society. Empowering young workers, women's rights, racial equality, dignity for the disabled, as well as justice for First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples. We have made Canada a better place for millions of workers and their families. We will keep fighting for a Canada where ALL workers have a decent wage, retirement security, dignity and a safe workplace. As we move forward, we are undertaking an unprecedented initiative to speak with every rank and file member in order to re-create our movement. We are 800,000 public service workers. We will back each other up. We will speak with one voice. We are CUPE. * Listen on Apple Podcasts – : The Gritty Nurse Podcast on Apple Apple Podcasts  https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/the-gritty-nurse/id1493290782 * Watch on YouTube –  https://www.youtube.com/@thegrittynursepodcast Stay Connected: Website: grittynurse.com Instagram: @grittynursepod TikTok: @thegrittynursepodcast X (Twitter): @GrittyNurse Collaborations & Inquiries: For sponsorship opportunities or to book Amie for speaking engagements, visit: grittynurse.com/contact Thank you to Hospital News for being a collaborative partner with the Gritty Nurse! www.hospitalnews.com      

In this episode, we sit down with Tonya Jennings and Nathan Wright from Baker College (now with a mascot: The Bees!) to explore how the institution is creating new paths for education, especially for returning students, first-gen learners, and working professionals. We kick off with a look at their innovative "Return to the Hive" program, which offers institutional debt forgiveness for former students who left Baker due to unpaid balances. Half the debt is forgiven after one term, and the rest after completing a second semester. This initiative is specifically designed to remove financial barriers and re-engage students who've been out of the system for two years or more.We shift into how Baker supports first-generation college students through its "First-Gen Bees" program, which offers guidance and community for both students and staff who are navigating college without the benefit of a parent who's been through the process. Tonya and Nathan emphasize the college's “students first” culture, which drives many of their initiatives.The conversation moves to flexible programs like the new Accelerated One-Year MBA. Fully online and built for busy professionals, it allows students to move through coursework every four weeks and earn a degree in a single year. That flexibility extends to their continuing education offerings as well. Baker boasts over 1,400 non-credit courses, covering everything from trade skills like HVAC and CDL training to lifestyle topics like gardening in small spaces. The college also partners with local employers to address skill gaps, such as creating Spanish-for-manufacturing training to help teams communicate more effectively.Looking toward the future, Baker is doubling down on high-demand fields like healthcare and technology. Nursing remains a huge focus with no waitlists across campuses, and AI integration is quickly becoming a staple within programs and classrooms. The staff shares how Baker is embracing AI not as a threat but as a tool to enhance learning and career readiness, ensuring students are equipped to use it ethically and effectively.We also hear about their summer programs for middle and high schoolers, offering structured academic engagement during the break. These camps are expanding and serve as an important on-ramp for future learners. We close with a fun segment on favorite childhood books, giving the audience a peek at the personalities behind the professionals.Baker has campuses in Royal Oak, Owosso, and online.Learn more at www.baker.edu.00:00 – Return to the Hive Debt Forgiveness02:11 – What Makes the Program Unique04:08 – Supporting First-Generation Students05:17 – Accelerated One-Year MBA06:08 – Continuing Ed & Trades Training08:02 – Summer Camps for Youth09:16 – Workforce Trends & AI Integration12:26 – AI's Role in Student Learning12:52 – Fishbowl Question: Childhood Books14:55 – How to Connect with Baker College Learn more about the Royal Oak Chamber of Commerce: https://www.royaloakchamber.com/Connect with our hosts:Jon Gay from JAG in Detroit Podcasts - http://www.jagindetroit.com/Lisa Bibbee from Century 21 Northland - http://soldbylisab.com/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Low resource settings require much innovation and streamlining resources to meet set goals. With healthcare becoming more commercial and profit driven, missional healthcare in low resource settings faces many challenges. Sustainability is a big question with people finance , and equipment scarce and hard to come by. Missional models of healthcare often run into hurdles of sustainability, longevity and relevance even as healthcare slowly turns into business. In this setting of multifactorial challenges and increasing compliances how can missional healthcare be relevant and sustainable? Many saints of God have committed their lives to fulfil this great commission in some of the most underserved and unreached areas of the world. With the birth of Emmanuel Hospital Association (EHA) a different model of missional healthcare emerged in India. Over the last 55 years of its existence, EHA has shown that through all the challenges, this may be one of the ways to sustain missional healthcare in areas of need. With increasing divide between the rich and poor, overwhelmed government systems, a ruthless insurance system, and high end corporate healthcare, it is still possible for missional healthcare to provide low cost, high quality, technologically advanced care to people in need while remaining sustainable. We bring lessons from India and our experience with Emmanuel Hospital Association over the last 3 decades.

Big changes are in store for the federal student loan program. President Trump’s tax and spending bill, which was signed into law last summer, ends a supplemental loan for graduate students and caps  the amount they can borrow from the government. It also allows students in professional programs, such as law and medicine, to borrow more than students in other graduate programs, such as nursing or social work.   The bill reduces students’ loan repayment options from seven to two. It also phases out the Biden-era SAVE plan, which was the most flexible income-driven repayment option.         Jennifer Bell is the director of financial aid at Portland State University. Susan Bakewell-Sachs is the vice president of nursing affairs and dean of the School of Nursing at Oregon Health & Science University. They join us to discuss what the changes could mean for students who rely on loans, particularly to get advanced degrees.  

In this episode of Nurses Uncorked, Nurse Erica welcomes back Dr. Matthew Garvey DNP, MBA, RN to discuss several recent legal cases of nurses in the news.

They discuss trust in the nursing profession declining due to negative media coverage. The COVID-19 pandemic has impacted nursing education and the quality of training.

On a quiet summer morning in Chester, a nurse in a tracksuit opened her front door to find detectives waiting. Within minutes, Lucy Letby, the nurse parents trusted with their most fragile infants, was led away in handcuffs. To neighbors, she was the polite young woman who waved from her driveway. To friends, she was giving and kind, the kind of girl who carried spare tampons in her bag in case someone might be in need  But inside the Countess of Chester Hospital, prosecutors said, she had become something far darker: a “malevolent presence” who turned lifesaving equipment into murder weapons, leaving a trail of dead and critically injured newborns in her wake And as she climbed into the backseat, doubt lingered as to whether they had captured a killer, or condemned an innocent woman to the role of one.
