Lessons From the Frontlines

Published on: 21st April, 2021

Marie joins IA to share her reflections on spending the past year on the literal frontlines of the fight against the pandemic. This episode offers a raw glimpse of a rarely shared perspective we all could use more exposure to and spans a range of topics including:

- why some run towards the chaos and tragedy of life

- living to work vs working to live

- what makes nursing ultimately worth the challenges

- coping with constant exposure to pain, suffering, and death

- the ethics of euthanasia and dying with dignity

- how adversity and resilience give birth to self-knowledge and authenticity

- moving past the guilt of childhood

- the trouble with finding space to be vulnerable in our attention-starved, socially distanced world


and much more!

About the Podcast

Impostors Anonymous
For the impostor in all of us.
Impostors Anonymous is an exploration of where conversation leads when we attempt to leave our identities at the door. This project aims to limit the audience's ability to be misguided by preconceived notions and labels, allowing for a focus on direct experience and the character of content. While any topic is on the table from any perspective, common themes will include consciousness, mitigating human suffering, and the unraveling of our group and internal identities.
