Retaining The Passion

We have an exciting ‘Retaining the Passion: Journeys Through Nursing’ podcast announcement:

Our CCraig DDavidson is having a break to enjoy newly married life;

So, we are delighted the superstar Dawn Marr is joining Clarry Manners for Season 3(b).

We had a handover with Clare, Craig and our shiny new co-host, Dawn.

And we are so excited for the next chapter of the podcast and can’t wait to see what mischief Clare & Dawn get up to.

They are staring back on Sunday July 31st 2022 with an episode on “Writing for Publication” with many more stellar episodes and guests lined up. So, please don’t miss out.

You may have noticed our fortnightly frequency of episodes seems to have been slightly derailed. Where has Season 3 gone?

Well, Clarry Manners has started a new job and CCraig DDavidson is planning a wedding.

Not to worry, Season 3(b) will be back at the end of July!

We are so excited for Season 3(b)’s remaining seven episodes...

• Let’s talk menopause, for nurses & patients;
• Compassion fatigue;
• Safeguarding women’s rights;
• Trans-inclusive healthcare;

In episode 6 "Dying Matters", Clarry Manners and CCraig DDavidson discuss three significant nursing events from this week: , and the Royal College of Nursing, voting to rejoin the International College of Nurses at their Annual General Meeting.
Next, we discuss our decision for choosing the topic “Dying Matters” and why they believe we need to be having open and frank discussions about death, palliative and end of life care.

First, they interview Dr Billy Rosa, a Postdoctoral Research Fellow and Nurse Practitioner. Billy works at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York and is particularly passionate about LGBTQ+ rights in palliative care and valuing “chosen families” and has done much work in this field.

Next, Clare interviews Dr Kathryn Mannix, a Palliative Care Physician who is passionate about getting us all better acquainted with the idea of dying well. Kathryn is also a published Sunday Times bestselling author of “With the End in Mind”.

They then reflect on the two very emotive, emotional, but inspiring interviews. And though they understand death and dying are complex topics for many to discuss, particularly this year with what we’ve experienced through the Covid-19 pandemic, they hope it will inspire people to begin these conversations.
