## Resource

Our guest is Dr. Athena Lorin Hall and we discuss several aspects that are problematic in healthcare. Not necessarily limited to the US. With over nine years of experience as a pediatric hospitalist and two years in a global health fellowship serving resource-limited communities, I’ve gained an invaluable perspective on both the strengths and shortcomings of our healthcare systems—and the opportunities to reimagine them.I am deeply committed to advancing a community-centered, humanized, and equitable approach to healthcare, one that prioritizes mental health, prevention, and connection.Grounded in collaboration, trauma-informed care, and meaningful community engagement, my work focuses on transforming how care is delivered and experienced.To bring this vision to life, I founded ZNA Health Network, a platform that connects healthcare professionals, community leaders, and innovators to share ideas, co-create solutions, and strengthen the systems that support health and healing for all.
