This week, the episode about COVID you had no idea you were waiting for is here and boy, is it a doozy. Myself and the lovely Crit (https://twitter.com/rn_critcare) try to remain anonymous while conveying to y'all how screwed over healthcare workers have become during this pandemic. 
Listen, reflect, and share this because a lot of us are being threatened with retaliation for speaking up.

Candid Covid Chat: "Lean On Me"

Join me, Kim, an intrepid nurse who likes to talk a bit too much as we explore medical cases and topics in a way that only an ER nurse can. Because you would be surprised how many things end up stuck in the body and truly how people are wild.

This week is a brand new episode that made me so mad while researching, I took numerous emotional laps around my apartment to calm down. I'm back and sassy, folks! Enjoy!

Phony, You’re a Great, Big Phony!

Welcome back! In true reboot fashion, we're going to talk about end of life and dying with dignity in this brand new episode. Does this description seem kind of familiar? Well it should because this is the second episode of what will be multiple episodes I want to release throughout the year regarding end of life. Western culture is really great with shying away from talking about death. Let's change that. As Marty McFly would say, "this is heavy" so please, exercise listener discretion with this series.

Dying With Dignity Part II

This week is a bit of a blast from the past in that this interview was done in early 2020. Better now than never, right? 
If you've ever been wondering about wilderness medicine, this is the episode for you. If you have no idea what wilderness medicine is, this is still the episode for you. Learn a bit more about a specialty you might not even know existed!  
Thank you Bryan!

Dying With Dignity Part I

This week I have the honor of talking with one of my friends about a world I know little to nothing about aka the land of labor and delivery. Cybil is a rockstar in that world and I'm so fortunate that she took the time to chat!
