Episode Description from the Publisher

In this episode I speak with Marta, who beyond being someone who is deeply passionate about people, considers herself a nonconformist; someone who strives every day to make a difference. Marta holds a degree in Social Work and a Master’s in Social Work, with a focus on Chronic Kidney Disease and its impact on patients and their families. Marta is also a couple and family therapist and the mother of four daughters.Links to resources mentioned in this week’s episode:Marta’s Diaverum profile - https://www.diaverum.pt/en/diaverum-portugal/diaverum-in-portugal/management-team/marta-olim/Marta’s publications - https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Marta-OlimMarta’s LinkedIn profile - https://www.linkedin.com/in/marta-freitas-olim-52521ab6/Testimonials from Diaverum’s project for caregivers (‘We, Families’) - https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Wv1_B7AKp1EHcpt7vIwVh90BEi9IbebH/view?usp=sharingThis episode's transcript can be viewed here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/18lxc6Tt-UX1MpEcWZBM4QSMxVTWhAixvEmck1BCI2dg/edit?usp=sharingThanks to Kevin Macleod of incompetech.com for our theme music.
