They would come to his tutoring centers and they would kind of hang out with him and share stories. And he felt like he had attained some real connection to those youth. And he was so proud of it, as he's telling me. And then he gets a job in another city, moves there, but he ends up losing that job and feeling really defeated in that moment.

And so he leaves that and he comes to be a chaplain in the hospital in which I was doing some observations. And so he talks to me about this trajectory. And at the very end of the exchange, he talked to me about what it was like to be interviewed. And he said, you know, this was very powerful. And then he said, therapeutic, almost therapeutic.

Oh, yeah. It's something that's very common. People often say, oh, this was just like therapy. It's not like therapy because I'm not really there to solve any problems or really to counsel them in any way. And they know that. So it's more like it's the language we have for that feeling of being seen.

Yeah, so Greta was a pediatrician and she was kind of surprised when she first started her practice how much she was supposed to be attending to the mothers rather than the children. That was something that was a surprise to her. She often found herself giving, say, parenting advice or talking about car seats or talking about what it's like when you can't get any sleep or something like that.

And the mothers kind of desperately needed that. She felt their need on the other end, but she often felt like she told me she didn't feel like she was practicing on the top of her medical license. That was the language she used. to mean that she had all this expertise in children and children's symptoms and diseases and disorders.

And really the bulk of her job was about like kind of listening, hearing, and being attuned to what the mothers were saying. And she ultimately ended up saying, you know, the mothers don't need me. They need an hour with a good listener.

Yeah, I think that's the most important dimension of this for me is the emotional impact because so many of the other impacts get kind of carried on along on the emotional impact. The emotional impact of being seen, people feel like they have dignity. People feel like they have understanding. People feel like they have purpose, right?
