We can never forget why we serve, why we push, why we work long hours. Not for awards or recognition, but for the communities we care for and love. Never forget about your ’why’… never forget about the people you serve, and you will never lose your way. My production team, Chris Smith, Alex J., and Jorden M. work tirelessly to ensure we are bringing the facts and transforming adverse narratives.
