Lisa Weinert, aside from being one of my oldest and closest friends, is a literary champion who reminds us of "how important it is for our basic well being to pay attention to the stories that surround us and how we absorb them." Here, in her Narrative Medicine Podcast, she features the eloquent and insightful Rev. Mara Dowdall, who talks about the role of spirituality in medicine and storytelling.  Mara, like Lisa, is one of my dearest friends. Together they are a powerful team. Their discussion will resonate with anyone affected by cancer! Listen and Enjoy!
