Breaking the Silence: From Hesitation to Action

Too often, women hesitate to share health information—whether due to privacy concerns, lack of trust, or simply not knowing how it benefits them. The reality is, health data improves healthcare outcomes and puts women in control of their own care.

 

In this talk, we'll break down the myths surrounding data privacy versus utility, how companies build trust through transparency, and provide actionable steps women can take to use their health data as a tool for self-advocacy, better treatment, and smarter healthcare decisions.

Beyond the Default: Unlocking Market Growth

Companies are leaving millions on the table by designing products around outdated defaults that don’t reflect today’s dominant health consumers—women. The LEAD™ Framework offers a strategic approach to evaluating product development, improving market performance, and unlocking new revenue opportunities.

 

In this talk, we break down how biased data, limited validation, and narrow design choices hold innovation back—and how tech, health, and consumer companies can course-correct to build smarter, more scalable solutions that win in the marketplace.

Beyond Borders: Healthcare on a Global Scale

The future of healthcare isn’t just about technology—it’s about how we use it. From AI-driven diagnostics to global data-sharing initiatives, the healthcare landscape is shifting rapidly. But innovation without strategy, ethics, and policy alignment can deepen existing disparities.

​

In this talk, we’ll explore the future of healthcare in the U.S. and globally, breaking down the key trends shaping the industry, the challenges that threaten progress, and the opportunities leaders must embrace to build sustainable, inclusive, and tech-driven healthcare solutions.
