  • 54. Reflecting on 1 Year of the Global Health Pursuit
    Mar 26 2024

    Today, I'm setting aside the usual guest interview format to share my own experiences and insights as a global health podcaster. I announce a brief hiatus for my upcoming wedding (yay!) and tease the exciting lineup for the next season of the podcast! Reflecting on my travels and work in the medical device industry, I discuss the inequities in healthcare access and my drive to explore global health solutions.

    Through interviews with over 40 individuals, I've learned that passion and listening are key, not necessarily a health background. Stories of guests like Sean Kappauf and Brooke Sulahian highlight how small moments can inspire significant work in global health. Emphasizing the value of partnerships, I underscore the collaborative nature of the field.

  • 53. From Apathy to Action: A Journey to Clean Water... One ATTA Time w/Sean Kappauf
    Mar 19 2024

    A simple glass of water can change lives.

    Sean Kappauf is the inspirational figure behind the non-profit 'One ATTA Time', dedicated to tackling the global water crisis. Venturing from a place of personal apathy to launching a life-changing initiative, Sean takes us through his deeply personal journey that transformed his mission to care into actionable compassion.

    Sean shares how a heartwarming connection with a 3-year-old boy named Bryan in El Salvador set the stage for a remarkable transformation, not just in Bryan’s community but in numerous countries across the world. With a focus on the importance of clean water access, Sean explains the innovative use of GIS technology and the life-saving impact of their water filtration systems, proven by comprehensive scientific data and heartfelt community engagement. This episode is not just about water; it's about finding purpose, the power of kindness and competency in leadership, and the magic of serendipity in spreading hope one family at a time.
