Piece of Work with Danielle Tantone
Hi there. Welcome to Piece of Work, the Podcast. I’m Danielle Tantone. I’m a nurse, author, coach, and survivor.
I love inspiring people to live their best life, reach for those big dreams, and find joy even in the pain.
As I wrote my memoir over so many years, trying to make sense of a story where I was way too often the bad guy instead of the hero, I came to understand that we are all a piece of work. But we’re also a work in progress. And even in our messiness, we are a work of art, too. All at the very same time. In fact we are all beautifully unique pieces of one masterpiece, waves in the same ocean.
This podcast explores the stories and struggles that make us human, the miracles that surround us, and all the ways we work to make sense of it all. Welcome to Piece of Work, The Podcast, with Danielle Tantone.

Healing: When a Nurse Becomes a Patient - with Theresa Brown, RN
Five years ago when I was considering going back to school to become a nurse in my mid-40s, I read a book called The Shift that gave me an amazingly accurate view into a day in the life of a nurse. It was my great honor to sit down with Theresa Brown, the author of that book.
Her third book, Healing: When a Nurse Becomes a Patient came out in paperback last month. It's a wonderful read about health and caring, breast cancer, grief, and healing. We had such a fun discussion about being a new nurse, an old nurse, a cancer survivor, a writer.
