Healthcare is complicated, and navigating Medicare often feels like a compounding hardship when you’re already dealing with illness or helping a loved one.

Join us on March 13 @ 11am PT for a focused hour digging into Medicare. We’ll cover the most important things you need to know and consider, whether you’re navigating the system for yourself or acting as an advocate for someone else.

The more we can understand the systems we rely on - the good and bad - the better equipped we are to make decisions with clarity.

In the midst of burnout and grief, sometimes the place we think will hold us steady —  a hospital, a routine, a role — no longer feels like home.

Palliative care physician and colleague Sunita Puri shares how she found a different kind of refuge: in nature, in the body, in stillness, and in the acceptance of impermanence.

Refuge isn’t a place — it’s a practice. It’s the pause between breaths, the wind on our face, the ground under our feet, and the understanding that we can feel both joy and sorrow in any one moment.

When life feels heavy, maybe we don’t need escape — but presence.

Humanity captured in art.

Loss is universal. We are all passing through—held for a moment together in this life.

Do you find inspiration for mortality in art, theater or music?

Caregivers: we know you’re busy tracking meds, arguing with insurance, and trying to hold it together while getting enough sleep so you can wake up and do it again.

But just so you know, Ryan is out there, leaning against a reclaimed wood doorframe, wearing a slightly-too-tight henley, thinking about your incredible capacity for patience and care.

Happy Valentine’s Day to caregivers.

Disclaimer: Ryan Gosling is being used as a humorous prop in our caregiver wishes, he did not approve these valentine’s day cards, though we imagine he would.

Not just WHAT we say—but HOW we say it.

In care settings, words can calm or escalate, clarify or confuse, soften or deepen fear. Tone, pacing, and honesty shape an experience just as much as any medical intervention.

Care isn’t only delivered through treatments.
It’s delivered through language, presence, and the way we meet one another in vulnerable moments.

In our recent conversation with caregiver and artist Andrea Schell, we explored new ways of thinking about illness and caregiving. One powerful reframe stayed with us: our bodies are allowed to get sick, and each of us will experience mental or physical decline in some form. There’s a permission in naming that truth—we are allowed.

Head to the Library of Recordings link in our bio👆(or click here:https://shorturl.at/rmbrW) to hear more from Andrea reflecting on a decade of caring for her mother.

While her personal experience centers on dementia, her insights on caregiving, illness, and being human will resonate beyond one diagnosis.
