103: Women Making History
Women’s History Month celebrates women’s achievements, acknowledging notable women in history and the important role they’ve played across societies, industries, and culture. There is perhaps no greater source of women’s history-making and contributions to society, science, and social systems than healthcare and the nursing profession with its historically high representation of women among its ranks. In 2024 Women’s History Month focuses on those women who have and continue to advocate for equity, diversity, and inclusion, and SEE YOU NOW is filled with stories of women making an impact across these dimensions. In this episode, the SEE YOU NOW team digs into our past episodes to highlight women who have and continue to shape history and share our perspectives on why the work of these women -- many of whom are using their nursing superpowers -- to identify, advocate, and hasten equity and representation creates a better future for all and a writes a history that carries forward these important lessons, roadmaps, and contributions.

Finding Healing Through Integrative Medicine
On episode 465 of The Nurse Keith Show nursing and healthcare career podcast, Keith interviews Jocelyn Johnson, MSN, RN, the author of A Path Forward: My Journey to Find Healing Through Integrative Medicine.

Jocelyn Johnson, MSN, RN, is a clinical nurse specialist in mental health with over twenty-five years of clinical experience. After a brief career in aerospace engineering, she pursued health and spirituality interests and moved into a nursing career. Her continued studies included functional medicine, Kundalini yoga and meditation, Buddhist perspectives in consciousness, and therapeutic nutrition. These viewpoints of mind, body, and spirit health grounded her unusual holistic cancer success story.
With retirement from clinical practice, Johnson's focus is on sharing the tools of her health recovery. She hopes to empower others to curate personal well-being and to foster change in how cancer is viewed and treated.
