What does a medical doctor, actor, educator, and CEO have in common?

In our world, they're the same woman. And in this first episode of I Stand Connected, you're about to meet her.

Renee Lim and Andy Griffin kick off this podcast with a deeply honest conversation about what it means to be someone who has lived through complexity - and chosen to help others navigate it.

From palliative care wards to TV sets to university lecture halls, Renee shares how a lifetime of showing up in other people's hardest moments has shaped the way she sees human connection.

One insight anchors the whole conversation: when something happens, it never just affects one person. And once you see and understand that, it changes the way you communicate forever.

In this episode:

• Why Renee calls herself an "expert at people", and what she means by that
• An example of how one sentence can mean four completely different things to four different people
• Growing up as an unaccompanied minor and what that taught Renee about adapting in real time
• Imposter syndrome, porous boundaries, and what it really takes to keep showing up for others
• Renee's honest account of her mental health journey, and the self-care practices that keep her well

Whether you're navigating a hard conversation at work, sitting with someone in grief, or just trying to understand why the same situation lands so differently for different people, this one is for you.
