Ego, struggle and faith. What do these topics have to do with one another? In today's episode, Sarah thinks out loud about the way ego keeps us clinging to the problems that stand in between us and our best selves. It's an invitation to allowing rather than trying, to letting go rather than clinging and to getting comfortable with the uncomfortable experiences in life.

I've spent most of my 20 year career working with oncology patients, and I've recently started a master's degree in Healthcare Quality and Patient Safety at Northwestern University.

Jon and Sarah discuss the change that one person can make in the world, the balance of nursing as an art/science, and how perfectionism feels harder to heal from than addiction, being gay and being HIV+.
