Nothing Is Impossible - a podcast by Nik Kendrew

This week, Chesterfield GP, GP Trainer and training programme director Dr Naren Senthil Nathan is back to talk to Nik, this time about the Netflix documentary '14 Peaks: Nothing Is Impossible'. They discuss the fearless and inspirational Nepali mountaineer Nimsdai Purja as he embarks on a seemingly impossible quest to summit all 14 of the world’s 8,000-meter peaks in seven months. What can we learn from him and his leadership, and how can we apply it to our current situation in Primary Care?
We also have the usual look at the week's medical news headlines, the week in daytime TV and your voice messages...
