What happens when three different people tell you a job is meant for you, and you laugh off every one of them? Dr. Michelle Taylor returns to the podcast on her one-year anniversary as Commissioner of Health for the Baltimore City Health Department, and she shares the surprising chain of conversations that carried her from her hometown of Memphis to Baltimore. Dr. Huntley and Dr. Taylor also celebrate the wins that rarely make headlines, including a coordinated overdose response in which every single person survived and a long-running program that is helping close the gap between how many Black and white babies in Baltimore live to see their first birthday. Dr. Taylor closes with heartfelt advice about investing in your people and protecting your own well-being so you can keep doing the work you love. Press play for a hopeful reminder that good things are happening in public health, and that the right people around you can open doors you never imagined.
