Longing for Healthcare Reform
We talk a lot about fixing healthcare with policies and metrics. But change doesn’t come by force — it comes by longing. Longing for dignity, compassion, and the calling that drew us here. Let’s stop managing the deck and start longing for the sea.
We talk a lot about fixing healthcare.
More metrics. More policies. More efficiency.
But what if we’re missing the point?
You don’t change a system by force. You change it by longing.
Longing for dignity. And compassion. For creating the space needed for healing. For a kind of care that remembers why we show up.
The best mentors I’ve ever had didn’t give me a checklist — they inspired me. They reminded me what it feels like to want to serve.
To feel the immensity of this work — not the burden, but the calling.
To fall in love with providing care, each day and every night.
That’s how we build something worth sailing, not by counting every screw, but by reminding people why they came aboard in the first place.
Let’s stop managing the deck. Let’s start longing for the sea.
We can reach the destination of healthcare reform — together.
Welcome aboard.❤️
