In this episode of Breaching the Boardroom, host David Mauro sits down with Brian Schroeder, founder and CEO of Preventia, to explore how a deeply personal health crisis sparked an entrepreneurial journey that’s transforming the future of wellness.
When Brian’s wife was diagnosed with heart failure after giving birth, he realized just how broken the system was—not in intent, but in design. What followed was a mission to change the way we approach prevention, habit change, and mental well-being. From founding a wellness-centered health tech company to navigating HIPAA compliance and scaling coaching for real behavioral change, Brian shares how Preventia is empowering employers, communities, and individuals to reclaim their health.
💡 What You’ll Learn:
✅ The difference between “sick care” and true wellness
✅ Why doctors aren’t equipped to drive long-term behavioral change
✅ How Preventia connects users with certified health coaches through a scalable, secure platform
✅ The impact of GLP-1 drugs (like Ozempic) and why sustainable weight loss depends on habit change
✅ How Preventia is supporting employers and at-risk populations with accessible telehealth solutions
🔐 Changing Lives, Not Just Diagnosing Conditions
Discover how Brian is bridging the gap between healthcare and habit change—delivering population health solutions that actually work.
