In this episode Liz and Jesse are joined by Liz Wilkes to learn about midwifery (our sibling profession). Liz is the first state Chief Midwife in Australia, taking the lead for the profession in Queensland. We think this is an awesome episode on so much more than midwifery. There

are lessons on professional identity, scope, socio-cultural responsiveness and considered leadership through curiosity and representation.

Liz’s Five Things:

1. What is a midwife?
2. What is the scope of practice of a midwife?
3. Is midwifery a feminist issue?
4. Properties for midwifery today and into the future.
5. What people can expect from the chief midwife.

In this episode Liz and Jesse are joined by Professor Gail Robinson to help us understand memory. Gail holds a joint appointment with the Queensland Brain Institute and the School of Psychology at Queensland University of Technology. This episode is all about memory, just in case you forgot already...

Gail’s Five Things:

1. What is memory?
2. Memory and emotion are linked.
3. Memory and brain injury.
4. Memory and dementia.
5. Can you improve your memory (or at least protect it)?

In this episode Liz and Jesse are joined by Tu Ritchie to learn about burns. Tu is a clinical nurse, and current acting nurse manager, in the adult burns unit at RBWH. This episode is both a great learning resource, but also an example of a nurse who exudes passion and purpose in her career.

Tu’s Five Things:

1. First aid and immediate post-burn management.
2. Burn wound management.
3. Managing pain.
4. Burns nursing is so much more than wound care.
5. Burns care is truly a team sport.
