When the Dust Settles - Lucy Easthope
Lucy Easthope's book, When the Dust Settles, is quite possibly one of the most astonishing things I have ever read. Having come back to it for today's podcast, I am struck again by the compassionate wisdom with which Lucy writes and how relevant the themes from disaster recovery are to all of us, particularly those of us working in healthcare. It was such a treat to talk to Lucy herself.
I think I managed not to be too fan girly during the course of this interview. You can let me know if I succeeded or not. It really is such a treat to welcome her to Bedside Reading, to think about her book When the Dust Settles, and also about her new book Come What May, which is going to be released in the UK in May 2025.
