A Potent Dose Of 3

Welcome to A Potent Dose of 3 — where medicine meets meaning. We’re Kathy, Linda, and Jazmin, three women of color in healthcare sharing our journeys as Nurse Practitioners and a Medical Student. But this podcast is about more than stethoscopes and scrubs — it’s about healing ourselves, our families, and our communities. From therapy and mental health to navigating identity and purpose, we’re breaking generational trauma one episode at a time.
