Webster's dictionary defines "liminality" as... Just kidding. But not really.
In this episode, Dan and Sarah put on novice anthropologist hats and start to explore the role that ritual plays in Pediatric Palliative Care: in bereavement, in the day to day flow of the team, and in things as mundane as stapling your morning list. Social worker Caitlin Scanlon (@caitlin_scanlon) and music therapist Kristen O'Grady (@KOGrady_MTBC) join us to talk about the ways they participate in ritual, witness ritual, and think about the concept of liminality.
