Today, I'm setting aside the usual guest interview format to share my own experiences and insights as a global health podcaster. I announce a brief hiatus for my upcoming wedding (yay!) and tease the exciting lineup for the next season of the podcast! Reflecting on my travels and work in the medical device industry, I discuss the inequities in healthcare access and my drive to explore global health solutions. Through interviews with over 40 individuals, I've learned that passion and listening are key, not necessarily a health background. Stories of guests like Sean Kappauf and Brooke Sulahian highlight how small moments can inspire significant work in global health. Emphasizing the value of partnerships, I underscore the collaborative nature of the field. __________________ Support the Podcast Click here to send in a one-time or monthly donation Thank you to our partners at CHIMUK: A sustainable and ethical handmade fashion brand transforming women's lives through knitting.
