There are a number of stories, clichés, and unpopular opinions in this episode. I hope they help the profession of pharmacy and you as an individual pharmacist.

Highlights

• The story of 1+1=4.
• A story about nail holes in a fence.
• I compare the pharmacy profession to Camelot. Sir Galahad might end up saving the pharmacy profession (not someone practicing now).
• "Knowledge of any value can't be given. It must be sought and earned." - Rick Riordan, The Serpent's Shadow (Kane Chronicles Series Book 3)
• I compare Amazon Pharmacy to a natural disaster (like a tornado) and everyone else in the pharmacy profession to survivors who band together to survive and thrive.
• Pharmacists sometimes act like someone has the answer and they're withholding it.
• Advice: get it right. Don't try to be right.
• You don't have a right to the cards you believe you should have been dealt. You have an obligation to play the heck out of the ones you're holding.
• Nobody is coming to save you. Get up. Be your own hero, and be your patient's guide.
• Find people you trust, and listen to them. 1 + 1 = 4 when you work together. I internalized this equation as a parent of a child with autism even thought I heard the story when I was I kid.
