In this episode, I sit down with Dr. James to share her incredible story of courage, compassion, and perseverance. From rushing to North Carolina with a team to aid hurricane victims, to battling government interference and misinformation, Dr. James takes us behind the scenes of her mission to bring hope and healing where it’s needed most.
We talk about how she built a mobile medical operation from scratch, the miracles she witnessed, and the powerful lessons learned about community, preparedness, and resilience. She even draws thought-provoking parallels to the challenges faced during COVID-19, and how we can do better moving forward.
This conversation is filled with inspiration, practical insights, and a call to action. Whether you’re looking to help, learn, or simply be moved by a story of humanity at its best, this episode is for you.
