In this episode of The Quest for the GoodLife, Dr. Mike Strouse is joined by Beth McCoach and David MacDonald—GoodLife’s leaders in operations and tech innovation—for a compelling conversation on how smart technology is reshaping the way we support independence, safety, and connection.
Together, they explore:
- How iLink is evolving into a national platform for care that’s simple, responsive, and privacy-forward
- The role of neighborhood networks in creating belonging and interdependence
- Why technology must be both powerful and invisible to truly serve people well
Plus, hear insights from a thriving off-the-grid community, the philosophy behind “one button, one finger” design, and why duct tape might still be the ultimate survival tool.
