The smartest people in healthcare aren't always in the C-suite anymore. Many are fractional. On June 17, we're bringing together a handpicked group of fractional healthcare leaders, consultants, and operators in NYC to share ideas, build relationships, and compare notes on what's working across the industry. Space is limited, and attendance is by invitation. Are you a fearless fractional who should be in the room? Register now 👇

If anyone wants to chat with me about applying to the NYT fellowship (I did it a few years ago), please feel free to text or email me. My info is in my bio.

A Message to Elon Musk @elonmusk and DOGE from a Mother of a boy named Max. Please at least give it a read and reconsider haphazardly freezing funding on important government programs: "Elon, this perfect little boy is my son Max. He's not a parasite. He's pure joy. Love radiates from him, and he has a smile for everyone he meets. He was born with a rare genetic form of leukodystrophy called TBCD that is usually fatal by five years of age. We were filled with hope when the researcher our patient advocacy group has been working with at Nationwide Children's Hospital was awarded with an R01 grant from the NIH after our community pooled our resources to fund the first phase of her research to apply for it. Last year, she showed us some of her work in the lab that PROVED there was a pathway to a treatment. It was just a few cells in a dish. My son's neural cells -- cured. Right now, her funds are frozen. The grant that was providing hope for a future for these children with a condition so rare that private pharma would never have any interest in creating a treatment is what you're fighting to slash funding for. You might as well be slashing my kid's throat. Any delay in bringing this from the bench to the bedside WILL kill children in our community - and you're laughing on X and calling them parasites? Shame on you."

Looking for a great cause this holiday season? This family is working hard to adopt young children who lost their [single] mother. As a mom myself, this is my biggest fear -- leaving my boys. Please help them get to a loving home. adopttogether.org/families/t…

Comms friends: I’m literally never going to say yes to a meeting if the exec doesn’t personally email me. It takes 2m, if that, to send an email. Everyone I ask for time, I personally reach out to. It’s a respect thing. Their time is just as valuable as mine.

Friends: what snacks will you be making to help get you through election night?

Recently, Donald Trump called January 6th a "day of love." The video of that day - no matter how many times I see it - sends chills down my spine. I feel sick. We will not go back. Vote for a free (and yes, imperfect) America. Together we can move this democracy forward.

.@PeteButtigieg to Fox: We have never seen a President not have his own Chief of Staff or Vice President support him. And we have never seen a Democrat have this many Republicans who do support her. Trump is talking about turning guns on people who disagree with him. Harris is saying Republicans will have a seat at the table in her administration

I've been in the room with Trump many times. Vote for Harris.

How do fascists derail democracy? If you study history (or read Project 2025), it’s almost like there’s a recipe book: goose the economy, abolish unions, privatize what’s public, win the support of tycoons. But at what cost? Mesmerize your base so they don’t care. Blind them with your fear-mongering, lies, and promises. Fascism needs a bold leader…the only one who can fix things…a dictator who has the vision and expects others to follow (including women…whether they like it or not). I believe that history is indeed speaking to us — and those who refuse to learn from it are doomed to repeat it. To learn how fascism hijacked Germany a century ago, just watch this five-minute clip. If you care about our democracy and love our country, it’s hard to stop watching. This is an excerpt from my hourlong public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe,” which is streaming free (and ad-free) at ricksteves.com/fascism. When I produced it back in 2018, I hoped this day would never come in our country. But November 5th is upon us. Please share this with anyone in your life who might need a reminder that the stakes are high…and this is very real.

You can’t call your politics “pro life” if women are dying because of them.

I cannot understand why we are so focused on what President Biden said (when he's not even on the ballot!) and don't *endlessly* talk about the fact that Trump is out there threatening anyone who speaks out against him. This isn't Democrat v Republican - this is right v wrong
