Every week we all consume a ton of information, to a point that it can seem like noise. Same for me, turning that noise into a signal that makes sense is what this newsletter is all about.

Who is she? She saved thousands of lives as a nurse and changed the face of nursing. Her life is inspiring as well as informative and resonates true given the current situation. We remember her as we commemorate national nursing week.

Her life reminds us of the importance of nurses and give thanks to them in these special circumstances.
