Carine Toukam is a survivor who turned her painful experiences into a source of empowerment and inspiration. Born in Yaoundé, Cameroon, Corrine's early life was marked by privilege and academic excellence. However, her journey took an unexpected turn when she moved to the United States to join her spouse, only to discover a hidden life he had been leading. The ensuing divorce left her in a foreign land, devoid of financial resources and support. Through resilience, determination, and a commitment to financial literacy, Corrine rebuilt her life from scratch. She transitioned from teaching to nursing, using her background in education to excel in her new career. Along the way, she discovered the transformative power of helping others and found personal growth in extending a helping hand. Corrine's story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the capacity to turn pain into power.

Anyone older than you is entitled to your respect. This system functions effectively, as the majority refrain from using this authority. Whether you admire them or concur with their viewpoints is irrelevant; it would be downright disrespectful to consider oneself superior to the established order. What insights do you possess that your seniors lack? Considering that most of our elders have endured more hardships than us, and their strides have shaped our identities, how could one not show them the due respect?
I've unearthed a profound understanding that nursing extends beyond just physical care. It's about adopting a comprehensive view. Take, for instance, the case of an individual who has endured sexual assault. They are not in their right mind and appear to be a mere shadow of their former selves. Despite this, it's crucial to reassure them that they still have immense mental strength and that there's much in life they can look forward to.
You are dishonest by claiming to be 'good' when you’re not. You may think that "Hey, how's it going?" isn't genuinely a query. It's just a 'courtesy' or 'social convention.' Did the other person genuinely anticipate a different response from you besides saying that you were 'good'? Is uttering 'good' in this context indicating that you don't wish to partake in any further dialogue with them?
