In this episode, hosts Emma Voelpel andNadoo Abaagu sit down with Jamaican immigrant and nurse, Connie Currie.
Currie came from a busy house in Jamaica where she lived with her aunts, uncles, cousins, and grandparents. She made the move to join her parents in Montreal at a young age. But something from Jamaica that always stuck with her was her interest in nursing, something she pursued as she progressed into adulthood. Her journey to where she is today has had many unexpected ups and downs but throughout it all, Currie has also put her passion for helping others first.
