Life has many layers. Whether it's true crime, the media spotlight, mental health, religion or any other part of a person’s journey, there are so many deeper truths underneath the surface. To truly understand them, you need to peel back those layers to find the depth, beauty, joy, suffering and struggles that become the silver linings. Join Jayson Blair each week for interesting conversations with interesting people from all walks of life.

When Raquel Bono was a child, she told her father that she wanted to work at the hospital so she could spend all day with him. When she started listening to jobs she could do at the hospital, her father asked, “Why don’t want you want to be a doctor?” She replied, “Dad, I did not know that girls could be doctors.”
That conversation led to a 30-year career as a trauma surgeon, to become a vice admiral in the Navy and executive who eventually ran the Defense Health Agency, a $50 billion healthcare enterprise. Dr. Bono, who also led Washington State’s response to the COVID-19 pandemic, joins us today to talk about breaking the model, women in healthcare and leadership in this volatile world.
