Congratulations to our recent DAISY Foundation Award winner, Yeshiemebet W., who was nominated by one of a patient's family member who wished to recognize her extraordinary compassionate care. This grateful patient says it best:

πŸ’¬ β€œMy husband came to the hospital with sepsis, high fever and shaking. The headaches were very excruciating. Since we met her, Yeshi showed her compassion, caring and remarkable optimism. She went above and beyond for her patients. Yeshi always found a way to help him and ensure he was given the best possible treatment. She made the difference. She reached out to the doctor whenever necessary. She has a true gift for getting to know her patients. The attention, patience, and kindness she provided for to my husband was truly outstanding. Words cannot fully caption our appreciation for the comfort and support she brought to us during our time at the hospital. She was able to tell us and explain what was going on with my husband in very simple words that we could understand. VHC Health is incredibly fortunate to have her on staff."

πŸŽ™οΈ Sheila Johnson, co-founder of BET and CEO of Salamander Collection, joins the Living Well with Alison Starling podcast. She is a trailblazing entrepreneur and wellness advocate inspiring resilience, women’s leadership, mental health and intentional living. In this episode she brings her experiences together around a question at the heart of Living Well: After achieving extraordinary things, what does a fulfilling life actually look like? Her answer is simple and deeply personal: learning to love.

In this candid conversation, Sheila Johnson goes beyond her public story and shares how repeatedly moving as a child shaped her, and how music became a source of stability and ultimately a lifelong influence. She discusses a difficult marriage, losing her sense of identity, years of rebuilding her understanding of herself and opens up about imposter syndrome, raising children, mentorship, and her commitment to creating opportunities for others.

Congratulations to our recent DAISY Foundation Award winner, Alisiya M., who was nominated by one of her patients who wished to recognize her extraordinary compassionate care. This grateful patient says it best:

πŸ’¬ β€œMy mom underwent a procedure and spent several nights. Alisiya stood out in a meaningful way and made a difficult hospital stay much more comfortable for both my mom and our family. She consistently showed kindness, compassion and genuine concern for her well-being. She always made sure my mom had everything she needed and often thought outside of the box to find additional ways to improve her comfort and recovery. She treated my mom as a person and made her feel seen, supported, and encouraged."
