“Interesting interview, Anah. Great to hear an articulate, experienced nurse with such clear views of her practice.

The therapeutic relationship has always been central to mental health nursing. I like to think that Hildegard Peplau bought clarity to this in her work. Cultural safety is a contemporary concept and is vital in this cross cultural world, as is sharing, or partnership, and having an equal relationship with clients.

I enjoyed the interview and the music. Looking forward to more!”

“Jo Kennedy, beautifully worded. Your tone and voice were calm and intuitive, thank you for sharing your wisdom and story.

Anah Aikman, you should be on radio! What a relaxed interview. Proud to be a part of this.”

“Thank you for the pleasure of the past hour listening to your podcast. I look forward to listening to the other 5 nurses voices as I am able.

As always, your words and presence are very real, authentic, grounded and inspiring. I found myself singing along with Van and The Drifters, and just enjoying that inclusion. Thank you.”

“Good afternoon Anah and colleagues, I have just listened on replay the stories of both Heather Leong and Jean Ross.

Heather’s empathetic and naturally sensitive nature was clear to me. The role of nutrition and mindfulness in her practice and sharingwas great. My takeaway : ‘Food and nutrition be the medicine.’ Thank you, Heather.

Jean is a supreme dynamo with massive vision, and a great advocate of Rural health. I sensed her Welsh spirituality in amongst her story, the indigenous somewhat alienated was a connection for me. Thank you, too, Jean.”
