There's this thing that happens when you're carrying a lot. People ask how you're doing, and you say "I'm good." Not because you're lying — but because the truth would take longer than anyone has time for.

In this episode, Lisa gets honest about what her last two weeks actually looked like: two R01 deadlines, fifty resumes, a staffing transition, a LinkedIn post that reached fifty thousand people — and losing her 43-year-old nephew Colby, suddenly and without warning. She connects her invisible inventory to what the world is carrying right now: the dismantling of the Voting Rights Act, a new Ebola emergency, and an NIH budget crisis that's pushing scientists out of the work they love. And she names the thing nobody talks about — that the weight isn't the problem. The loneliness of the weight is.
