Conversations with the executives, founders, and operators who have dedicated their careers to building in healthcare.
Lifers is a podcast about the people who have decided to stick with healthcare. Not because it’s easy, but because it is worth fixing.
Each episode is a candid conversation with leaders across the industry about how they think, what they’ve learned, and what it actually takes to navigate a system that doesn’t always make sense. From hiring and building in healthcare, to function-specific playbooks and the realities of policy and innovation.
No sound bites; just real dialogue with leaders who’ve been in the room.
