We’re navigating a paradox in health and wellness. Developed nations are sicker than ever, yet healthcare systems have reached remarkable levels of advancement. At the same time, access to care, health insurance, and patient agency seem to be at an all-time low. How can we take control of our health without succumbing to cynicism? And what steps can we take to create a healthier future for ourselves and the next generation?
This week, we’re joined by a doctor and healthcare administrator who dives deep into the complexities of modern healthcare. Together, we’ll uncover why the system is broken, explore the differences between Medicare and Medicaid, examine successful healthcare models, and discuss actionable solutions for the future.

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
