EP 91: Rehumanizing Healthcare: From Disruption to Healing

In this vulnerable and powerful episode on the Coffee Break Podcast, Dr. Renee Thompson sits down with Dr. Bob Dent – a nurse executive, executive coach, author, and someone I’ve respected for over a decade – to explore how leaders can create emotionally safe, respectful, and human-centered workplaces in healthcare. We go beyond the buzzwords and dive into the realities of fear-based leadership, toxic cultures, and mental health challenges in leadership. Bob shares not only his incredible professional insights, but also his deeply personal story of navigating chronic suicidality and seeking help – a conversation that will stay with you long after the episode ends.
