Summary

In this episode, Shanti reaches a new mother-daughter dynamic while Antoinette relives a childhood favorite. After an emotional voicemail, we sit down with Olivia Gillison, former leader of emergency preparedness in Philadelphia. Together, we talk about what it really means to be prepared in times of crisis and emergencies, how storytelling builds trust in times of crisis, and why the next generation of public servants matters more than ever.
