    I pity the healthcare leader who doesn't listen to the HEALTHCARE RAP! I need my flava of the week, to stay in the FLOW. Seriously Jared continues to do an amazing job with this insightful, innovative, energy filled, entertaining podcast. He has super guests, keeps things real and causal, and always delivers value. Not only is the content stellar, but he production value is solid as well. Please keep it going.

    Jared & Peter really but some effort into this. If you are listening this to copy their idea and thoughts you might be missing what I feel might be the point they are trying to get across. Thank you guys for putting this out there! You had an impact for me that will be huge and I don’t think it was your intention, but for people looking for a way to change your thinking as you said it helps to empathize!!! Thanks again!!!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Rural Health Transformation Program in Plain English (#516)
Q: What are some practical steps a rural clinic should take when applying for these funds?
Clinics should review their state CMS promises, assess their infrastructure and baseline data, identify strategic partners (including hospitals and consultants), and build a plan that demonstrates measurable outcomes and sustainability beyond the five-year window.
The Rural Health Transformation Program in Plain English (#516)
Q: Can you explain what the Rural Health Transformation Program is and what it aims to achieve for rural providers?
The program is a five-year, $50 billion federal initiative designed to transform rural healthcare delivery by funding sustainable technology, workforce development, and care coordination, with an emphasis on using data and telehealth to close gaps in access and improve population health.
The Skin Microbiome Revolution: Personalized Skincare Without the Guesswork (#512)
Q: What's your biggest takeaway from your founder's journey so far?
Germs aren't the enemy; maintaining a diverse, balanced microbiome is critical, and the future of health care will be about enabling people to manage their own microbiomes intelligently rather than relying on one-size-fits-all solutions.
The Skin Microbiome Revolution: Personalized Skincare Without the Guesswork (#512)
Q: What does the product actually do on a day-to-day basis for a user?
Every day the system combines your latest skin scan, microbiome data, quiz responses, and even environmental factors to generate personalized product recommendations and usage instructions, updating as conditions change so you can follow a frictionless routine.
The Skin Microbiome Revolution: Personalized Skincare Without the Guesswork (#512)
Q: How did you transition from a side project to a scalable business, and what have you learned about talking to customers?
The shift happened when we started swabbing people's faces and realized there was genuine curiosity about their microbiome. Investors often saw it as too complex, but talking to customers showed that busy professionals want clear, simple solutions; the key was translating complex biology into practical steps and a straightforward user experience.
