    • Management

In episode 89, host Dr. I. David Daniels will speak with Dr. Enoh Ukpong, a professor of Nursing who immigrated to the United States from Nigeria. She will share a bit of her lived experience of surviving child abuse at the hands of a family member before deciding to come to the U. S. to pursue education as a way out of those circumstances. Though she had never been on an airplane or used a telephone before her arrival, she worked through her undergraduate and graduate degrees. She worked her way to the highest levels of the healthcare industry before becoming an educator.

Dr. Ukpong’s story helps shed light on the experience of those attempting to operate in systems, organizations, and even communities that were not designed with their psychological or emotional needs in mind and how various coping strategies, including one’s faith, can help a person succeed despite the trails and challenges that they face.
