In this episode of The UNSUNG Podcast, Dr. Efrat Lamandre sits down with KC Arnold, FNP – founder of The Diabetes Center in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, and proof that sometimes crisis sparks the greatest breakthroughs.

After more than a decade in the Air Force and years of nursing experience, KC thought she had her career mapped out. But when Hurricane Katrina shut down her clinic and left her future uncertain, she made a bold choice: to open her own practice in just three weeks.

From starting with a single patient to building a thriving specialty clinic and even her own medical building, KC's journey is one of passion, persistence, and purpose-driven leadership in diabetes care.

Tune in to hear how she turned devastation into determination – and why she believes nurse practitioners are uniquely equipped to change lives and communities.
