    Kip McCoy - Vice President - Innovation Studio, OSF HealthCare

    Kip McCoy loved the Phoenix Suns before the Phoenix Suns were cool.

From re-dedicating himself to health and fitness to leading the Innovation Studio at OSF HealthCare where the team finds new methods of healthcare delivery and personal health engagement to amassing an impressive collection of sports memorabilia, Kip knows how to get things done.

Sabina speaks about all of those and more as well as her relatively newfound passion for meditation.

    David Hoke - Head of Consumer Experience and Wellbeing, RightMove Health

    “Rather than going from zero to vegan in 60 seconds, why don’t we start from eight sodas a day to seven and a half?”   This quote from David Hoke perfectly sums up his mindset when it comes to improving wellness. Instead of expecting to instantly change unhealthy habits, focusing on smaller steps provides the confidence and energy to make long-term positive adjustments.   As the former Senior Director of Health and Wellbeing for Walmart, former Global Wellness Manager for Yum! Brands, and current Head of Consumer Experience and Wellbeing for RightMove Health, David knows a lot about helping people achieve their wellness wants and needs.
