In a world where the health care system often feels stretched to its limits, the voices of those who dedicate their lives to healing others can too easily go unheard. Yet behind every mask and every pair of scrubs lies a human story — of compassion, resilience, and often, quiet exhaustion.

In this episode of The Art of Feminine Negotiation, Cindy Watson sits down with Marcia Jacobi for an insightful and heartfelt conversation on Negotiating Healing and Care: Giving Voice to Health Care Workers and Restoring Humanity in the Health Care Conversation.

Marcia has been part of the health care world since the 1980s and is the co-author of the best-selling series If These Scrubs Could Talk. A passionate advocate for those who wear scrubs, Marcia is on a mission to combat burnout and build a strong, supportive community for health care professionals. Through her movement and her books, she's helping those on the front lines feel seen, heard, and valued—reminding us all that caring for the caregivers is just as essential as caring for the patients.

Join Cindy and Marcia as they explore how to restore compassion, connection, and humanity in the health care conversation.

In this episode, you will learn:

• The inspiration behind launching the If These Scrubs Could Talk movement.

• The emotional and psychological impact the system has on health care workers, and how can storytelling or other strategies can help address that?

• How the healthcare system evolve and how frontline workers are treated and valued?

• How the art of negotiation plays a role in health care environments.

• How can the so-called feminine traits like empathy, vulnerability, collaboration can maybe help reshape the future of health care?

• What role does leadership play in shaping these negotiations, and what negotiation strategies can health care workers use to advocate for themselves and their well-being?

• And many more!
