We are excited to share a compilation of the third season of Vital Voices, a podcast of the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation. Episodes are released every Tuesday.
The third season of Vital Voices focuses on the 2023 cohort of Macy Faculty Scholars—six individuals chosen to participate in our two-year Macy Faculty Scholars career development program because of their demonstrated potential as future leaders in medical and nursing education. We think you will find their work to advance health professions education—and their own personal experiences and perspectives—to be inspiring.
To kick things off in this season’s opening episode, Holly J. Humphrey, MD, MACP, speaks with Afaf Meleis, PhD, FAAN, LL, and Kelley Skeff, MD, PhD, two members of the Macy Faculty Scholars Program National Advisory Committee who have been with the program since its inception in 2010.

Dr. Vanjani also serves as medical director of Amos House, a Rhode Island nonprofit providing social and healthcare services to individuals experiencing homelessness.
