Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

38. "Rooming in" and speaking out: The essentials of perinatal substance use care
Q: Great. Thanks for that. What an interesting trajectory that you've had to this point. When you said that you were a ball player to start with, I thought, oh, that's really interesting from baseball, presumably pretty high level sport because you were traveling for it quite a bit to obstetrics. Would you say that's an accurate assessment?
Yes, the experience of elite sport helped shape a mindset of pushing boundaries and looking for creative solutions in medicine, which paralleled the early, guideline-scarce period of perinatal substance use care and underscored the value of advocacy and collaboration.
