Trailer - Welcome to The Healthy Mind Shift
What if the turbulence in healthcare and the world is actually a chance to accelerate transformation?
As old systems change, new possibilities arise. For women in healthcare, it means taking a seat at the table - or making a new one - and shaping the future with clarity and purpose.
Change is happening. The question is: what are we building, who’s leading, and how do we do it together?
This podcast gives women leaders across healthcare the mic to share how they turn challenges into opportunities.
Spoiler alert: it’s smart, real, and fun.
We’re Roberta, global health advisor and founder of D-Health Consulting, and Anh, international market access and policy senior leader.
