Dr. Albert Wu joins Inspire Global Radio to talk story about what it means to care for the people who care for others.

He shares how the concept of the “second victim” came to be—and how it grew into the RISE program at Johns Hopkins, a peer support model for healthcare workers after unexpected patient outcomes. We also explore his community work in Baltimore through Project Connect, bridging hospitals and frontline voices.

This conversation touches on medical error, grief, honesty, apology, and the healing power of simply being seen and heard.

When USAID was dismantled this year, more than 4,000 people around the world lost their jobs. But what was truly lost goes far beyond positions and programs—it was the dedication, wisdom, and humanity of those who poured their lives into building healthier, more equitable communities.

In this episode, we honor and thank four extraordinary local staff—K’voi (Vietnam), Ferreira Ferreira (Mozambique), Dra. Argentina Wate (Mozambique), and Thanh Pham (Vietnam)—for their years of service. Their stories remind us that true aid is never just about institutions. It’s about humility, resilience, and love lived out in relationships, community, and the courage to serve.

To K’voi, Ferreira Ferreira, Dra. Argentina Wate, and Thanh Pham—we offer our deepest gratitude for your service, and for teaching us what aid really looks like at the human level.

In this episode of Inspire Global Radio, we sit down with Christine, a retired teacher and survivor of the 2023 Lahaina wildfires.

She shares her experience of escaping the fire, healing from burn injuries, and adjusting to life in a new city after losing her home. With honesty and perspective, Christine reflects on what it means to start over later in life, the importance of community support, and how her values shaped her path through recovery.

This conversation explores resilience, dignity, and the quiet strength it takes to begin again—offering insight not only into one person’s journey, but into what it means to care for ourselves and each other in times of crisis.
