What do glassblowing, fintech, and plastic-free diapers have in common? One brilliant disruptor: Jim McKelvey.

Wendy Lund isn’t just a powerhouse in healthcare marketing — she’s also a longtime family friend, thanks to her working alongside my sister Lisa years ago — also in healthcare marketing — then becoming neighbors and “besties.”  As a result, I also know Wendy is a longtime advocate for women’s health, and is as passionate about promoting good information as she is about, well, her dog, Yogi!
