What does it take to break barriers, empower others, and leave a lasting legacy? 💡   In Episode 3 of The U-Triumph Podcast Season 2, I had the absolute privilege of speaking with Joan Myers OBE, a Trustee and Fellow of the Queen’s Nursing Institute, and a trailblazer in the nursing profession. Joan’s journey is a testament to resilience, determination, and the power of uplifting others.   From overcoming early setbacks in her education to becoming the UK's first nurse consultant for community children's nursing, Joan’s story is one of relentless passion and purpose. What inspires me most is how Joan embodies the Be The Ladder philosophy, using her platform to break down barriers, challenge systemic inequalities, and empower the next generation of nurses.   Here are a few highlights from our conversation:   ✨ Overcoming obstacles to achieve academic success and professional excellence 👶 Her passion for community children's nursing and pioneering innovations in the field 🌍 Advocacy for diversity and inclusion in the NHS, and the fight against systemic racism 💪 Mentoring and coaching others to climb their own ladders of success   Joan’s unwavering commitment to education, diversity, and giving back is truly inspiring. Her journey is a powerful reminder that success is not just about achieving your own goals—it’s about lifting others along the way.   🎙️ Tune in to hear Joan’s incredible story of purpose, impact, and resilience.
