Pip Kensit is one of those remarkable women who can draw inspiration from whatever surroundings she finds herself. Be it during her idylic childhood on a sheep and cattle property in country New South Wales, or living with a Maasai tribe in Kenya or witnessing traumatic health events in remote Australia, Pip allows her experiences to drive her to better the world around her.
A registered nurse with a Master’s in International Public Health and Health Leadership and Managment, Pip has worked extensively in regional and remote communities and developing countries, and is currently working part time at the Rural Doctors Network, as well as various other leadership roles in rural health organizations.
In this episode Pip speaks to our host Sammie O'Brien about why she is now pursuing a degree in medicine and how she is taking the next generation of rural health professionals with her.
