Description
"Compassion & Courage" is a healthcare podcast hosted by professional speaker, Marcus Engel, and his wife, Marvelyne aka The Hotness.
This podcast includes conversations on the leadership topics, we all need: resiliency, finding compassion for ourselves and others, and healthcare trends. There are lots of interviews with docs, nurses, experts, patients, and folks in the field up to their ears doing the work… and finding the balance.
Marcus is a speaker, consultant, professor, and the author of “The Other End of the Stethoscope” and “I’m Here: Compassionate Communication in Patient Care,” two texts that are often used by hospitals and nursing schools.
"Compassion & Courage: Conversations in Healthcare" is a Marcus Engel podcast and the views expressed are entirely his own.
