Prof Nomafrench Mbombo, A Bloody Difficult Woman 1:44:48

1:44:48

Prof. Nomafrench Mbombo is a distinguished leader with over three decades of experience spanning healthcare, academia, politics, and public service; a woman with an unwavering commitment to social justice, equitable healthcare and the empowerment of marginalised communities. In this episode of the Awakening Doctor podcast, we learn about her humble beginnings in Mdantsane township, her thwarted ambitions to go to medical school, and the fortuitous dismissal and chance encounter that led her to study nursing and midwifery, and attain a Master's in Maternal and Child Health, and a PhD in Gender and Human Rights instead. We also delve into her tenure as the first female, first Black African, and first health professional to serve as the Minister of Health and Wellness in the Western Cape. Fueled by an indomitable spirit and a deep-seated conviction that the only way forward is to leave no-one behind, Prof. Mbombo is unapologetic in her assertion that "it's okay to be a bloody difficult woman” – one who disrupts, demands and delivers in her endeavour to birth a new reality in the world around her. Join us for an inspiring conversation that is a testimony to the power of feminine leadership and an important reminder that the past does not define our destiny, but our ability to adapt and persevere does.

Is it possible to be a full human being when your profession demands so much of you?

In this episode of Awakening Doctor, we delve into her experiences at medical school and discover the hopes, triumphs, challenges, and twists of fate that brought her to Oxford University to pursue a PhD in Psychiatry.

In this episode of the Awakening Doctor podcast, we meet the extraordinary Irene F. Sullivan, a trauma nurse practitioner with a multifaceted career spanning art, medicine, theology, philosophy, and cultural anthropology. Her story takes us from the hustle of an inner-city hospital in the United States to the vast expanses of remote Alaska, and from the rural landscapes of Boulder, Colorado, to an artist’s studio in Marnay-sur-Seine, France. We learn about her evolution from the confines of patriarchal religion to a personal spirituality rooted in goddess theology, and her transition from fervent social rights activism to measured climate justice advocacy and eco-keening. Along the way, Irene engages with indigenous communities, learns from shamanic healers, takes on the priesthood, falls in love with a Roman Catholic priest, reclaims her Irish heritage, and even meets with an Episcopal bishop in a red-light district. Her passionate protests against ecocide and climate devastation finally land her in an ICU with a broken heart. Today, as a Bean Chaointe or Keening Woman artist whose work is dedicated to creating spaces for eco-memory, eco-grief, and eco-care, Irene has transformed the duty of care that is at the heart of the nursing profession into a palliative medicine for the planet. Join us for a powerful conversation with a trailblazing health professional whose journey is an embodied reminder of our collective duty to care – for each other and for the environment.
