Episode 12
Monday, 27 October, 2025
Dr. Eugenia Flores Millender traces a path from a young nurse searching for her voice to a force reshaping psychiatric-mental health care.

Today, she is a national and international leader advancing mental-health equity, building systems that meet communities where they are, and setting a new standard for how mental health care is delivered.She calls on nurses to claim their rightful role not only as part of the conversation, but as architects, leading AI and digital-health design and shaping the systems that will define mental-health care for generations, nationally and globally.Authentic, hopeful, and filled with hard-earned wisdom, this conversation is a moving reflection on what it means to nurse the future — with courage, compassion, and purpose.Learn more about Dr. Eugenia Flores Millender at https://emfp.org/about-us/national-advisory-committee/eugenia-millenderNurses can earn free Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) credits for listening to this episode.
