Our guest today is Ellen DaSilva, Founder and CEO of Summer Health, providing personalized pediatric care via text message, aiming to answer patient’s questions in 15 minutes or less. Rachel sits down with Ellen to talk about how her experience in consumer tech as an early-stage Twitter and Hims + Hers team member created a passion to “consumerize” the healthcare space. With a strong emphasis on the future of health tech, today’s episode takes a deep dive into the benefits of the pseudo-synchronous user experience and what radically simplifying access to healthcare can look like. Both Rachel and Ellen wrap up the episode by sharing tactical ways they support their health and create work-life balance as VC-backed tech Founders and moms.

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.
