Donovan Pyle pulls back the curtain on an industry most business leaders misunderstand: employer-sponsored health care. In this episode, Donovan explains how companies are overpaying by as much as 25%—often without realizing it—and why the current broker model keeps them trapped. Drawing on his own experience inside a major insurance company and later as a broker, Donovan saw firsthand how incentives are misaligned and how brokers are often rewarded for selling the most expensive plans—not the best ones.
That realization got him fired… and fired up. He launched Health Compass Consulting to give employers a path out. Donovan outlines how business leaders can cut costs without slashing benefits. In fact, the key to savings is often improving employee care, not reducing it.
This conversation is a must-listen for CFOs, HR leaders, and CEOs who want to transform their benefits from a financial liability into a strategic advantage.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
