Verbal to Visual

In this episode I'm chatting with Liz McMurtry, who works in the healthcare industry and is helping current physicians incorporate medical students into virtual care visits. That's the topic of a visual presentation that she's creating, and in this episode we do a deep dive into the one-page handout she created as well as a few of the individual slides. This is a great one for anyone using sketchnoting to share ideas with others, especially if it's in the realm of education or training. Hope you enjoy it!

In this episode I chat with Stephanie Sundborg about where the market exists for sketchnoting skills. Stephanie is a great example of someone who is integrating sketchnoting in her current professional work (for Stephanie it’s helping organizations implement trauma-informed care), and also keeping an eye out for new professional avenues that might be pursued, leaning further into the visual thinking skills she’s developing. We talk about creating videos, training materials, and live facilitation - all potential applications for your skills too, no matter the field you work in. Hope you enjoy it!
