We Are Reading Poetry with Dr. Izabela Malinowska.
We Are Reading Poetry series is a collage of meetings with healthcare workers (HCW) and those who support them. This series is to bring awareness to tremendous toll of burnout on front line workers and to combat despair, isolation and one sided monologue who a HCW should or should not be.

Libby Lykins, PA talks about Magnificent Metamorphosis.
I met Libby through our mutual friend Steve Lyons, the Cape Cod artist that I interviewed for these pages in spring. Libby is a woman who wears many hats - she is a practicing clinician, editor, author and transformation enthusiast who wants to reach broader audience with her Magnificent Metamorphosis Magazine, see link to blog I wrote about it 2 weeks ago. I sat down to talk to Libby about her passion in this 18 minute video, hope you enjoy.

Follow the journey.
