When white women in leadership steal your idea and repackage it and give other white women to run with what you started! It’s ugly business and believe you me I’m not stepping back on this one
Connecting with RCN Fellows and past Presidents at #RCNCongress2025 was a real highlight of the week.

This post reminded me about a day I spent in a bookshop in Oakland, during my #ChurchillFellowship to the USA. It was February 2020, #BlackHistoryMonth in the States. I spent several hours at Marcus Book store I didn't want to leave. Happy #InternationalDayForTheEliminationOfDiscrimination!

A super busy 3+ weeks in Australia undertaking the 2nd leg of my @churchillfship.bsky.social #ChurchillFellowship in Trauma-informed Care. Now I am aiming for #TraumaResponsive care. It's not enough to be informed! We as healthcare professionals must learn about how trauma shows up & respond to it!
