On The Road Ramblings: She Believed She Could So She Did

There are many fears in the United States of America circulating around the new president, Joe Biden. One of the fears include socialized medicine/Universal Healthcare. In the United States we don’t fully grasp what it includes and there are countless myths and misconceptions when discussing such issues. First Do No Harm dives into the issue by having the hosts of Gritty Nurse Podcast (one of my favorites) on to discuss what Universal Health Care means in their country (Canada). I hope you enjoy listening to these two nurses as they educate me on what the realism of such construct really means.

Universal Healthcare For All

In the 17th Century the author Jonathan Swift wrote: “Falsehood flies, and the truth comes limping after it.” In the year 2020 it is apparent falsehood flies as fast as ever in our own, supposedly scientific times. A survey by the Pew Research Center found that a quarter of U.S. adults believe that there's at least some truth to a conspiracy theory that the coronavirus pandemic was intentionally started. Others allege that the outbreak isn't as bad as reported, that a quarter-million Americans haven't died. Official narratives and figures are questioned. The confusion that seems infectious has real and serious consequences. For this weeks episode my guest is Thomas Bowman, a partner with Resolute Strategy, a full-service strategic consulting firm in Richmond Virginia who has been studying covid19 and the conspiracies since March of 2o2o. We chat about how his company got started in debunking the conspiracies and where they originate. We also chat about the funniest ones he has covered in his TikTok account Resolutstrat. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/support

Episode 17: Physician Assisted Suicide

Episode 5: Polycistic Ovary Syndrome: How Insensitive Are you?

 Hey Honey, sweetie, baby!  On this week’s episode it is just you and me. I reflect back on a lesson that is taught to all those who prepare to care for those in the healthcare setting. It is the way in which we talk to and address others. I reflect back on several people who triggered me in simple conversation and what YOU and I both can do to ensure we don't make others feel such a way.  A group of highly anxious individuals performed at least six acts of kindness a week. After one month, there was a significant increase in positive moods, relationship satisfaction and a decrease in social avoidance in socially anxious individuals.  https://www.randomactsofkindness.org/the-science-of-kindness Christen and I decided to try this out for the month of July. You should too! Upload pictures with #hopeforhumankindness or simply send us pics or updates and we will send you a goodie in the mail in August! Since this week focused so much on the impact words can have on people, I'm including the link to Chemo Angel where signing up to send a card to someone undergoing chemo can make a difference in their week. It is something I actively participate in and encourage you to do the same.  http://becancerpositive.org/the-chemo-angels/    Are you following us on social media?  Email: 1stdonoharm.podcast@gmail.com IG: first.do.no.harm.podcast Twitter: @1st_do_noharm Facebook: Jami Fregeau Facebook Page: First Do No Harm Podcast Subscribe to the webpage via Email:  https://hopeforhumankindness.com/contact-us/ --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/support

E 21: What Happened to Rodney Reed? Who Deserves the Death Penalty?

"My pain isn't who I am, but it controls what I can do, and in this world what you can do is a huge measure of who you are." -unknown In this week’s episode we chat about night shift versus day shift and which is the coveted position in the world of healthcare. We also discuss chronic pain. In the midst of an opioid epidemic it is becoming increasingly difficult to get pain medication in seek of relief. At times the medications barely feel like a bandaid. As a sufferer of chronic pain I began looking for a way to decrease my pain in hopes to have the ability to run again- an action I was told would remain in my past. I’ve have successfully been able to run and go from taking almost 4grams of Tylenol a day for pain to rarely taking it! We discuss the pathophysiology of how pain works and the circuit pathway in relation to the brain. We go through proven research on ways to train your brain to communicate differently to rewire your brain into tolerating what those with chronic pain suffer from. Listen to the podcast with an open mind, try it out and share with us the changes you experience to help encourage others.  https://invisibleproject.org/donate/ is our organization of choice this week that helps those who suffer from pain.  Thank You to: Amy Carlson a Color Street consultant. Zelda_is_the_g1rl on instagram. Go check her out and have beautiful nails for the summer!

Episode 18: Chronic Pain Management Without A Prescription

Every single act of kindness, no matter how small has a ripple effect.  I quizzed social media asking what one thing can (scientifically) INCREASE love, energy, happiness, pleasure and your life span. The same one thing can act as an antidepressant. It can DECREASE stress, pain, anxiety, depression and high blood pressure. Some of our favorite guesses included pets, vacation with someone you love, being outdoors, and a couple more.  Listen to Christen and I discuss Kindness and the ways in which we find ourselves struggling as well.  We learned  "A group of highly anxious individuals performed at least six acts of kindness a week. After one month, there was a significant increase in positive moods, relationship satisfaction and a decrease in social avoidance in socially anxious individuals. University of British Columbia Study" We all could use improvement in our moods and satisfaction, right? We decided that the month of July we are going to take part in a challenge to perform 6 acts of kindness a week and we want you to join! More details in the podcast.   New to season 2 of First Do No Harm is the ability to leave voicemails! It is included in the show notes of anchor. Leave us a message- ideas, fun thoughts, and reactions to the episode.  We also want to give a big Thank You to our Patrons, Amy Carlson and Fuzail Haq for supporting us.  This week we want to highlight  a nonprofit organization, Girls Rock! Phoenix that empowers girls through music education, creation, and performance.  Girls Rock!

Episode 16: Do Yourself a Favor. Get Healthy Mentally and Physically By Doing This One Thing..

We thought it would be fun for you all to get to know us better. We both prepared questions for the other medical and non medical that the other person knew nothing about! This week we included questions such as:   2 truths and a lie If your life were a novel, what would be the title of it? Sweet or Savory What one thing would you want people to know instantly about you ? Western medicine or Eastern Medicine? If you could spend the day in the shoes of someone else who would it be? Least Favorite thing about Nursing/Being  a Nurse Non Medical pet peeve Green Thumb or Black Thumb? We are all unique, but what one trait would you want all people to have? Most memorable experience you have ever had as a nurse?   While the podcast is fun to do and gives us the opportunity to learn more about the content we cover, a much deeper purpose for First Do No Harm is absolutely to help spread understanding, love, kindness and help. Christen and I have decided that every week we will mention a foundation that we find important so you can also help an important cause to make the world a better place.  Do you want something to show for your donation? We have you covered there too. We will also be providing sellers that if you buy an item from them they will donate part of their proceeds to a good cause- a cause we will also fill you in about!  May is Brain Cancer Awareness Month. As neuro ICU nurses it was very important to us to kick start the help by giving you information on The Ivy Brain Tumor Center associated with my favorite hospital of all time, Barrow's Neurological Institute. These people are working hard to help end the devastation that Christen and I witness the most beautiful souls on this Earth Suffer from with their amazing clinical trials and research.   Do you need more information?

Episode 11: Assault on the Job

Halloween has always been my favorite holiday as far back as I could remember. It was a special day that my dad and I always spent together. In this episode I bring none other than my dad, Johnnie Jackson to share with you many of the stories I heard growing up of what he learned through the years of the actions and activities a full moon seems to cause.  In light of my favorite holiday this episode contains a contest and THE WINNER will receive a $25 Amazon giftcard. What's the catch? You must be kind. Throughout the show I give 5 activities that will spread kindness from YOU to a Stranger. You must do 3 out of the 5 and submit a picture for each to get your name in the running. Do you REALLY want that giftcard? I will also let you increase your chances. For each additional act of kindness you will get your name put in the drawing an extra time. You have the potential to have your name in 3 times. Pictures and stories (if you want to share) are due November 14 where I will be drawing live at 6pm (est). --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/support

E 22: Kindness Crusader: I'm Your Dad Now

"We are all humans. We all have a human experience, you know it's important to stop drinking our own juice and listen and validate other peoples' experiences." -RenfieldA patient sparked the interest in this topic when I witnessed a transgender woman in a hospital who treated the staff, especially her nurse horribly. When the nurse was talking about the abuse she was receiving from this patient she still referred to the patient with her chosen name and pronoun preference. I was so amazed at this nurse and the capacity and respect she had to not lash back in madness, but to continue to treat this person as a human being she cared for. Is this the norm in healthcare?I sat and interviewed with a great Transgender man, Renfield. He so graciously took the time to share with us his life and the struggles he went through prior to choosing to make the transition, his family's response, medical care, therapy, his experience of privilege and treatment as a man versus when he was a female, and most importantly his hope in human kind.This podcast includes profanity. Thankfully, the transgender community has its own suicide hotline courtesy of Trans Lifeline.US: (877) 565-8860 CANADA: (877) 330-6366--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/support

Old Wives' Tales: Fact or Fiction? Weather Edition

It is no secret that it is my mission to open the eyes and minds of people that we can all begin to understand one another and in return spread kindness through our differences. In the Season Finale of First Do No Harm we dial back to find out where it all began for me. My mom, Jan Jackson is the guest on the show (and my biggest support system with this podcast) and she and I chat on how she raised a child to see the world through loving lenses. Even though I lived it, traveling back through the memories of her taking me, her only child into the community to deliver food to the poor and hungry, befriend the "smelly" kid in class that no one liked, and the importance of loving others no matter who they are and what they've done in life left me captivated to hear the kindness pour out of her.  I hope you are as deeply touched by this as you listen to her talk about the importance of kindness and love in today's society.--- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/messageSupport this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/jami-fregeau/support
