The Nurse Who Held the Line | Martha Hoy on COVID, Courage & Healing

The people who saved lives during COVID were quietly falling apart — and most of us had no idea.

Host Lisa Urbanski sits down with frontline ER nurse and author Martha Hoy to unpack what it really meant to show up when the world shut down — and what that experience is still costing nurses, patients, and all of us today.

You'll learn:
🔥 The moment Martha knew COVID was unlike anything she'd trained for
🏥 How nurses improvised care when gowns, masks & ventilators ran out
💔 Why the "hero" label disappeared — and what replaced it
📖 What Martha's new book reveals that official reports left out
🌍 How trauma became a calling — from Las Vegas ERs to global missions
