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.

Listen and learn:

  • Why the healthcare system is failing
  • The truth about Medicare vs. Medicaid
  • Examples of healthcare systems that work
  • Real solutions for meaningful change
