  • Appealing for non-techie or healthcare pros!

    The "HIT Like a Girl" podcast has been a delightful discovery for someone not intimately associated with the world of healthcare or technology (I'm not a techie or healthcare pro!). I love that it appeals to a broad audience. Its capacity to transform intricate topics into compelling narratives, along with its celebration of diversity, makes it a noteworthy addition to any podcast lover’s faves.
