I am so very inspired by Dr. Dan’s humility, desire to change the way we interact with one another from a more compassionate place and service to suffering human beings during disastrous events. Here are some of the beautiful take-aways from our conversation.

 
 

Listen in as Dr. Dan shares with Dr. Danny powerful stories from his experience as the Director of the Mass Casualty Triage Unit at the New Orleans Convention Center during the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina about how your mindset determines your ability to thrive while under intense stress.
