People, this one is so good. Maria Hamilton Abegunde reads an essay that she wrote about an experience of powerlessness at 15 that forced her to make some brave decisions in order to regain her autonomy over her body, and her life. It is moving, affirming, and just really damn good. You can listen on Apple, Google, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. Share, like, and follow Badass on the socials.

On this episode of Badass we are talking with a nurse practitioner who worked on an ICU unit when Covid-19 hit. She allows us to take an intimate look at what it was like to provide care to the sickest of the sick during the first two and a half years of the pandemic. To live in the trenches during the worst moments. To witness death over and over again, helpless to halt it. The waves kept coming, and she and her colleagues kept showing up, despite their exhaustion, to save as many lives as they could. This episode honors the courage of healthcare workers, and asks us all to remember what they did in service to others, and how they are still carrying the weight of these experiences.
