    Why Culture, Not Tech, Is Blocking Your Growth with Varsha Chaugai

    What if the biggest blocker to your product’s success isn’t the tech—but the fear-filled culture it’s stepping into?

    Most Pitches Fail In The First 30 Seconds. Here’s Why

    Why Most Startups Fail to Land Investors (Until This Happens) Most healthtech founders don’t fail because of a bad product. They fail because they’re pitching the right idea in the wrong language. This week, we pulled back the curtain on a live coaching session inside our Pitch Perfect Workshop. Here’s what really separates fundable startups from ignored ones 👇 What You’ll Learn in This Episode: ✅ Why the first 30 seconds of your pitch matters more than your metrics ✅ How to align your story to the 5 investor psychology profiles ✅ The #1 mistake founders make when identifying their buyer ✅ How we repositioned a founder’s pitch from "meh" to match-worthy ✅ What real traction signals actually look like for early-stage founders ✅ Why coachability is the invisible X-factor investors are screening for Episode Timeline: [00:00:00] - Why 90% of decisions are emotional.

    If Patients Can’t Reach You, It’s Not Innovation— It’s Delay with Scott Schweiger

    How does a company built on virtual second opinions become a system-wide impact engine?  By blending data, empathy, and results—not just tech. In this episode, we explored what it really means to close care gaps—without forcing health systems to adopt yet another "new thing." Scott explained how they plug into existing infrastructures, using a results-based approach that leads to treatment changes in 70% of cases and diagnosis corrections in 25%. From nurse care navigators to global partnerships, Scott breaks down how founders can scale with intention, how AI + white-glove service actually works, and why impact starts with understanding—not assumptions. I’ve worked in ORs where we knew—if that patient had gotten a diagnosis sooner, they might’ve lived. That’s the cost of inaccessible care. It’s not about more innovation; it’s about making the innovation reachable. What’s one part of your solution that adds friction instead of clarity? Key Points You’ll Learn: 🔑Why 12M misdiagnoses a year demand system-level accountability 🔑How to create a tech-enabled and human-supported second opinion model 🔑What it means to be a wedge solution vs. a rip-and-replace platform 🔑How virtual second opinions can save $12K per case 🔑Why diagnosis change isn’t failure—it’s progress 🔑How to integrate into payer/provider plans without disrupting flow Timestamp: 00:00:00 – The true cost of inaccessible care and innovation 00:03:37 – How The Clinic by Cleveland Clinic offers virtual second opinions 00:07:06 – Understanding partners' data to identify care priorities 00:10:09 – Automating access while maintaining personal connection 00:14:38 – Working within existing provider networks and partnerships 00:15:05 – Using remote monitoring and telemedicine effectively 00:17:56 – Assessing and sourcing customized patient-centric solutions 00:18:25 – Expanding impact globally through virtual opinions 00:19:50 – Recap: The real impact of virtual second opinions 00:23:30 – The importance of balancing tech with human connection 00:25:31 – Key Learning 1: Access is a clinical and economic lifeline 00:26:21 – Key Learning 2: Data-driven second opinions save costs 00:27:05 – Key Learning 3: Combining AI and human compassion 00:27:30 – Key Learning 4: Empowering patients as decision-makers 00:27:55 – Key Learning 5: Integrating solutions, not replacing them 00:28:20 – Key Learning 6: Results-based partnerships over platforms 📣 Get In the Spotlight Are you a founder with a proven solution and paying users?

    Women-led. Underestimated. Overdue: Stop Waiting for Your Seat at Their Table

    SHOW ME THE MONEY? Not if you're a woman in HealthTech. Less than 2% of VC dollars go to women-led healthcare companies—and even fewer to women’s health solutions. I spoke with Mayra Hurtado, CEO of Prelude Health, who’s scaled her menopause testing startup internationally.  But like so many underrepresented founders, she’s still fighting for investor attention, burning time and energy trying to explain her impact to the wrong rooms. Here’s what most founders don’t hear enough: It’s not your pitch—it’s the positioning. And you don’t need to fix yourself—you need a GPS for a system that was never built for you. This episode is your wake-up call if: You’re stuck in the endless pitch cycleYou’ve got traction, but investors still don’t “get it”You’re overextended, doing everything, and seeing little progressLet’s stop asking for permission and start building stages designed for us. It’s not about working harder—it’s about aligning smarter.

    APR 17

    Tech Equity Is the Missing Link in Health Equity with Bevey Miner Ep 151

    What if your health tech solution is built on biased data, and you don’t even know it? On this episode, I sat down with Beverly Miner of Consensus Cloud Solutions live from the floor of VIVE to talk about one of the most overlooked drivers of healthcare inequity—unstructured data. From missed medications to tragic delays in care, we walk through what happens when critical patient information is locked in PDFs, never reaches the right provider, and gets left out of the systems we rely on to make decisions. You’ll hear what Beverly’s team is doing to: Eliminate the need for costly EHR overhauls with cloud fax + data extractionSolve real problems like discharge delays, referral breakdowns, and prior auth lagImprove clinical workflow without asking care teams to learn new tech or platformsAddress health equity by first solving tech equity in underserved markets One of Beverly’s own family members died waiting for a prior authorization. That’s what drives her. This episode isn’t about buzzwords—it’s about fixing the backend issues that block care from reaching people who need it most. If you’re a founder building in health tech, it’s time to stop creating tools that live in silos or pile more work on your end users. Ask: Is your tech actually making it easier to deliver care—or just easier to sell a demo? Key Talking Points:  🔑 Why “tech equity” is the prerequisite for true health equity 🔑 How unstructured data is quietly skewing analytics and care quality 🔑 What founders get wrong about interoperability and burnout 🔑 Why fixing backend bottlenecks is the best ROI you can build into your tech 🔑 The one workflow rule you must follow if you want adoption to stick Episode Timeline: 00:01:19 –  Beverly Miner from Consensus Cloud Solutions 00:04:37 – Tech equity as a key to health equity 00:08:17 – Call to founders: Build for integration, not just visibility 00:10:34 – Backend intelligence, not just dashboards 00:12:29 – Let clinicians practice: how data accuracy reduces burnout 00:14:56 – Magic wand wishes: Prior auth, burnout, and system cost 00:17:19 – Are we building functional or flashy tools in healthtech? 00:21:42 – What healthcare leaders can do right now to fix data problems 00:23:44 – Collaboration across roles: policy, scalability, and innovation 00:24:51 – Final reflection: Solving bias and access with smarter integration 00:25:36 – 7 Key takeaways from today’s episode 🔊 Notable Quotes “Health equity has to equal tech equity. We need to make sure the technology and access to data is truly equitable—or we’re just widening the gap.” - Bevey Miner “Interoperability is talked about endlessly—but founders need to stop chasing buzzwords and start solving real workflow problems at the point of care.”  – Sabrina Runbeck 📣 Get In the Spotlight Are you a founder with a proven solution and paying users?
