Are regulations and requirements preventing products, solutions, and treatments out of the hands of patients that really need them? Good providers want to improve patient care and try to use new products that can help, but they’re often restricted by the red tape in their own network. This, plus a culture amongst physicians that’s difficult to change, makes innovation in healthcare a massive challenge.
We sat down with Diana Hall, President and CEO of ActivArmor, to learn more about her quest to breach the walls of the healthcare industry with her 3D printed casts. The 2022 Colorado Manufacturing Woman of the Year shares what inspired her to engineer a new and improved cast, the challenges she faces in getting the product to patients, and what steps to take to launch your innovative ideas.

In a world of instant gratification, why is it so difficult to get in touch with your local medical device representative? Whether you’re looking to have someone answer your questions or you want to make a purchase, finding the right information shouldn’t be an obstacle – it should be a simple step towards your solution. Cheryl Halbert, founder and CEO of RepSource, experienced that challenge regularly at the beginning of her medical device career. Instead of waiting around for a solution, she rolled up her sleeves and created it.
In this week’s episode, Cheryl shares the pain points she’s witnessed on both the clinical and rep side, and how RepSource is addressing those problems. We also discuss the importance of immediate availability for customers, the challenges that hospital staff turnover rates can bring up, and how to avoid missed opportunities.

It’s high time you let yourself fail at something new – in fact, it could be the best thing you do for yourself in the coming year.
We all operate in two types of mindsets: fixed vs growth, as outlined in psychologist Carol Dweck’s landmark book “Mindset.” But mere surface knowledge of the daily tips, tricks, and techniques she popularized won’t revolutionize your career. In this episode, we’re replaying one of our most popular conversations about the power of mindset, and knowing where you sit when the going gets tough.
With the new year on the horizon, there’s no better time to revisit the issue with “problem territories,” and reset your mindset!
In this episode, you’ll learn:
Why being your hardest critic causes you to miss more opportunities How to acknowledge failure in a healthier, more constructive way The reason we often seek comfort in our own faulty assumptions in social situations Practical steps for replacing self-deprecation with constructive questioning Why “smart” kids often grow up to be risk-averse adults Plus, we discuss the value of adopting what works – and discarding what doesn’t – from the mindsets of colleagues and competitors.
