Ifetayo's wisdom and experience is legendary in the healing arts community in my area (and probably beyond!). I was so blessed to have her join me for this episode as we talk in depth about rites of passage - why they are important, what they can look like, how they can change a child's life and our personal experiences with rites of passage. Y'all curl up, grab a cup of tea, and enjoy this discussion with St. Helena Island's own Ifetayo White.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
