Prepare your ears for a captivating conversation with  Lily Lou as we traverse the world of advocacy through storytelling. Get a firsthand account of Lily's initial foray into the NEC Symposium — a unique melting pot of human narratives, expert insights, and healthcare providers treating patients with unparalleled compassion. Her experience, she says, was a thing of beauty, a place where the raw power of human stories converged with scientific proficiency and heartfelt care.

Beyond sharing her perspective on the symposium, Lily delves into the concept of storytelling for advocacy. She believes that everyone has the potential to become a compelling storyteller, with the capacity to spark significant policy changes. She brings to light the Section on Neonatal Perinatal Medicine's commendable work in neonatal advocacy, including their upcoming virtual Neonatology Advocacy Day. This day aims to transform experts into persuasive storytellers who can effectively engage policymakers.
