Notes on ResilienceAuthor: Manya Chylinski
Conversations about trauma, resilience, and compassion. How do we genuinely support individuals who have experienced trauma and build inclusive and safe environments? Trauma significantly affects the mental and physical health of those who experience it, and personal resiliency is only part of the solution. The rest lies in addressing organizational, systemic, and social determinants of health and wellness, and making the effort to genuinely understand the impact of trauma. Here, we ask and answer the tough questions about how wellness is framed in an organizational context, what supports are available and why, what the barriers are to supporting trauma survivors, and what best practices contribute to mental wellness. These conversations provide a framework to identify areas for change and actionable steps to reshape organizations to be truly trauma sensitive.

Send us Fan MailDoctor visits can feel like a high-stakes performance: you get 15 minutes, you are anxious, and you only remember the perfect question after you leave. We sit down with Dana Sherwin, a healthcare management consultant and speaker specializing in patient-physician communication, to make those minutes count and to make the relationship feel like a partnership instead of a power struggle.We dig into what patient engagement actually looks like in real life and why it links to better health outcomes. Dana shares a simple, repeatable way to prepare for a doctor appointment: write down your top priorities, your symptom timeline, and the questions you cannot afford to forget. We also talk about a surprising idea many people miss: a huge share of diagnoses comes from what you tell the doctor, which makes your story, your context, and your clarity a clinical tool.If you want more confident conversations and a clearer plan after every appointment, listen now.Dana Sherwin is a consultant and speaker focused on healthcare management and patient-physician communication. In prior executive and consulting roles, Dana worked in hospitals, managed care plans, and three public accounting/consulting firms.
