Ever found yourself marvelling at the strength of community bonds and the power of setting down roots? Then you'll be gripped by the journey of our guest, Ann Lindsay. A dedicated family physician from New England who found her way across the country to the heart of Humboldt County, Ann and her husband have spent 28 years serving the same patients and creating a vibrant local community in Arcata.

But this episode isn't just about reminiscing. Ann walked us through the unique challenges and rewards of bringing healthcare to rural communities, and the crucial role of care coordinators. We also got a fascinating look at her vision for Life Plan Humboldt, a nonprofit focused on equipping seniors with the education and resources they need. This organization uses human-centered design and community education to address the complexities of aging, a topic that's become more vital than ever in these pandemic times.

From personal passions like gardening and playing country blues with her band, to the financial workings of Life Plan Humboldt, Ann's love for her community shines through. As we wrap up, we glance towards the future, discussing possibilities for sustainable development, investment in youth, and sustained support for music and arts in Humboldt County. This episode is a testament to the beauty of Humboldt County and the incredible work Ann Lindsay is doing for its senior citizens. Join us, and be inspired!
