We had an exciting week last week and we can't wait to update you with everything that's happening on our RoadToHLTH initiative. It's a journey of growth and empowerment. Let's dive in!
Charlotte, NC
Tuesday, 8/15: We kicked off our journey at the Best Buy Teen Tech Center, teaming up with Atrium Health, The Clubhouse Network, YMCA, and more. One of the highlights was a podcast recording with Stacey Williams from Dermavant Sciences, who shared life and career advice to an eager group of teens. Later, these brilliant teens joined us later at our meetup to mingle with top women leaders from Charlotte, NC, and bridge generational gaps. Our mission at HIT Like a Girl Pod is to bridge the gender and tech divide and nurture the next generation of women leaders in health tech

Washington, D.C.
Thursday, 8/17: From Charlotte to DC! What a journey - trains, trolleys, and e-bikes...OH MY! We were grateful to have a much needed mini-spa night hosted alongside the fabulous Lygeia Ricciardi of AdaRose. Among the evening's highlights was a transformative mindfulness exercise guided by LaShone Wilson, the visionary CEO and Founder of One Breath at a Time Health and Wellness Services, LLC. This exercise provided a refreshing pause, reminding us of the power of conscious change and the importance of self-care. What a gift to our community, grounding us as we forge ahead on our #RoadToHLTH

Looking Ahead
Our journey on the #RoadtoHLTH is just beginning! Stay tuned for weekly updates to keep you in the loop as we crisscross the US. Up next? The much-anticipated Civitas Conference – an incredible gathering of health innovators aiming to transform health data exchange and overall health improvement. Civitas stands as a beacon of collaboration, fostering shared learning and offering unparalleled technical expertise. We're eager to absorb and share insights from their multifaceted community, spanning All-Payer Claims Databases, Health Information Exchanges, and more.
After Civitas, our path leads to Atlantic City, followed by a couple of buzzing days in NYC. We’ll then be making a brief stop in Long Island. Wrapping up our East Coast adventures, we'll culminate in the historic city of Boston. What a whirlwind of learning, networking, and empowerment this month promises to be!
