Hosted by Elliott Wilson, Tech It to the Limit explores the messy, hilarious, occasionally terrifying intersection of healthcare, technology, AI, clinical transformation, and the humans stuck trying to make all of it actually work at scale. This is not a “synergy” podcast. No buzzword smoothies. No pretending every pilot program is “revolutionary.” Instead, expect smart conversations with health system leaders, clinicians, founders, policymakers, technologists, and operators who’ve survived enough go-lives, governance meetings, workflow disasters, and innovation theater to have earned a few opinions. Topics include: AI in healthcare that works… and AI that absolutely should not have made it past the steering committee Virtual care, virtual nursing, and the operational realities behind the hype Smart hospitals, digital transformation, workflow redesign, and governance at enterprise scale Cybersecurity, interoperability, automation, ambient tech, and the eternal struggle against th…","last_synced_at":"2026-06-05T20:18:57.734793+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439"},"episode":{"title":"Founder, Interrupted: What it really takes to be a woman founder in health tech.","slug":"founder-interrupted-what-it-really-takes-to-be-a-woman-founder-in-health-tech","published_at":"2025-07-04T12:44:20+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439/founder-interrupted-what-it-really-takes-to-be-a-woman-founder-in-health-tech","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/tech-it-to-the-limit-6436439","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/techittothelimit/2101248","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/203510/2101248/techittothelimit/2025_07_04_12_43_41_0e0664d8-6c34-41d1-a1bf-5f0d1de43cfa.mp3","summary":"In this episode of Tech It to the Limit , Sarah Harper and Elliott Wilson chat with Elizabeth Boudreau, ex-AWS exec and co-founder of Practical Acceleration. They kick off with a satirical “SnoreSense” pitch, then dive into real talk on building meaningful healthcare tech, covering equity, trust, and designing for life’s seasons. Honest, smart, and full of heart—don’t miss it. Key Takeaways Tech equity starts at the margins. Building inclusive digital health solutions means designing first for the communities most often left out. Not only is it ethical, it's a smart strategy. Startups need soul and structure. Elizabeth encourages founders to reject burnout culture and instead design businesses that align with their energy, values, and the season they’re in. AI needs boundaries and trust. Success in health tech is about more than algorithms; it’s about solving real problems, with real people, in ways that build confidence and connection. Talk to the people you're building for. Your user knows what’s broken. You just have to ask. Assume less. Ask more. Build better.
