    This week we welcome the delightful and insightful Chelan Metcalf! Chelan is a nurse in on an acute med-surge floor and did her RN training in the thick of covid. She brings laughter and tears in this episode as she explores her unique (and deeply moving) call to this vocation and also explores an event of being assaulted while at work, as well as insight into the daily stresses of nursing. She also happens to be married to Co-Host Aaron Metcalf, but don't hold that against her! Thank you Chelan for your work, insight, and your courage in sharing some difficult situations.

    Quick disclaimer: this episode does have a story of violence. Please do practice discretion in listening.

    This week we have the great opportunity to speak with Adam Haight, who is a Palliative Care social worker. Adam brings a lot of depth and reflection in this conversation as he explores what brought him to this unique work and what continues to offer him meaning as he engages people in very difficult conversations on a daily basis. We especially appreciate Adam's authenticity (both in this interview and in his work) as he candidly explores spirituality and meaning in work. Adam is sincere, reflective, and heart-felt. Thank you Adam, and keep bringing that "woo-woo" energy into your work.

    It's the "Smithsters"!!!!!!!!

    Besties Alysa Smith and Genelle Smith (no relation, what?) join us on the podcast today for an episode that brings a lot of laughter, joy, and heartfelt care. Genelle is an ICU nurse, and Alysa is an emergency department and together they are an unstoppable force of wisdom and humor. These two have contagious energy and deep compassion for each other's work. They bring some wonderful stories and experiences, as well as reflections on what it has been like for them to have friends who are in the hospital and how they manage complicated emotions as they balance being informed in medicine and members of a tight knit community. We could have talked to these two for hours...we literally didn't want our time to end! Thank you Genelle and Alysa for your work and your willingness to share vulnerably about your work.

    Oh friends! Ken "Jesus Ken!" King brings us a heartfelt conversation about his work as a respiratory therapist. Ken offers insight into his patient interactions and into how he strives to bring some normalcy into a very abnormal setting. Ken is all things air - which it turns out is important to living - and shares his journey into this specific and important field. Ken is well loved and came to us highly recommended. He brings support to staff as well as patient care and uses humor to help bring levity for coping. Surprisingly, Ken is less "jokey" than normal on this podcast, opting to highlight the emotional weight of this work and reflect on humor and normalizing, rather than practicing it (though we did tease out a "hilarious" joke at the end).

    It was especially special to be joined by Ken's teenage son on this episode, who sat in the corner and absorbed his dad's work. It was a tender moment! Please listen to Ken and feel invited to offer feedback via email or stars or both! And consider supporting us financially to help us continue bringing these guests and their stories onto this platform.
