Super stoked to recently reach the 300,000 milestone on LinkedIn! This wouldn't haven't been possible without YOU, the LinkedIn Community! 🎂 Three years ago, I started publishing on the platform with the guidance and support of the one and truly  Maya & Daniel . That audacity to start sharing my voice through publishing has radically changed the way I engage with my community, mentors, and career.   From young professionals seeking for advice to top leaders and entrepreneurs sitting down to share their infinity story on the  Zero to Infinity  podcast, I've been so blessed to hear their inspiring stories and experiences. For the next 30 weeks, I am challenging myself to meet with another 30 new faces from the LinkedIn Community. #30In30Challenge 💙 Comment why you’d like to meet below – whether it’s about career, mentorship, or simply to have a convo. 👇 Thank you so much for being part of this journey today!

Came back to Cal Day as an alum for the first time. Always love the excitement & energy from admitted students & their parents! My advice for high school seniors still deciding on their college? Pick the school that's going to push you out of your comfort zone. Major and ranking will play a secondary role when you're in the right environment that enables growth not just in professional skills, but also how you view the world. College is an opportunity meet people who are radically different from you, challenge your pre-existing world views, & form new ones. I picked Cal after attending Cal Day several years back because of how different Berkeley was compared to Orange County: people, ideas, and so much more. Despite the early challenges of transitioning, I've made and learned a ton from such a diverse group of friends, classmates, and mentors! These diverse perspectives, compounded over the years, have made a better thinker and leader. Go Bears! Also had a great time seeing Jessie Salas inspiring the next gen of data scientists! Ended the day with a thoughtful convo on personal branding with Manisha Sharma Aparna Dhinakaran Joshua Perline Genaro Hernandez Salgado . �� What's your advice for high school seniors still deciding on what college to pick?

For the United Nations #InternationalDayoftheMidwife , I will never forget the day that Chanel Porchia-Albert of ANCIENT SONG DOULA SERVICES in Brooklyn met internationally renowned #nurse and #midwife Edna Adan Ismail of #Hargeisa , #Somaliland . The incredible rush of emotion, of seeing a dedicated #reproductivejustice warrior meet the legend who literally inspired her work...it gives me chills to this day. Women like Chanel and Edna are the backbone of the global #maternalhealth movement. Their support and defense of pregnant women who are vulnerable and need information and advocacy has inspired every step of my past year exploring #reproductivehealth and #maternalmortality , courtesy of National Geographic Magazine.

Broke the norms and taboos, and leaned in! Joining the stellar panel of healthcare movers and shakers at the Haas Healthcare Conference at UCSF Medical Center , while literally being 9 months pregnant was a compelling reason to challenge myself and hopefully inspire my students, my colleagues, my friends, and my daughter to be #unstoppable and constantly push the boundaries of what’s possible, expected, or “normal”.

We’re experiencing the dawn of the "hospital at home" concept. Healthcare is inevitably shifting from the point of care to your home, and here’s the latest example of this phenomenon: The Israeli company Biobeat 's take-home kit includes a continuous vitals monitor (tracking 14 vital signs, such as blood pressure, heart rate variability, skin temperature and a one-lead ECG), a patient app and a cloud-based patient management system. I’m explaining the ‘hospital at home’ concept in further details in my e-books on digital health and the future of healthcare.

Google gets into the medical research game, and it’s mixed news. Google is launching a new research app for Android phones, which would allow anyone with a device to participate in medical studies. Participants in the study will use the app to report any respiratory symptoms, the precautions they’re taking to prevent disease, and whether they’ve been tested for COVID-19 or the flu. The app will collect demographic data, like age, gender, and race as well It opens up two worlds: one into a better world of clinical trials and studies with more and more relevant patient data; and one into a dystopia where privacy is significantly flawed. I can't yet decide which one this will lead to but I'd opt in to participate in studies as I see more benefits from those, compared to how much of my privacy I’d lose. Too bad it won’t let me download or tell me why.

Good morning. Two US officials indicated in the last 24 hours that the country's unemployment rate will likely rise above 20% (and, according to Secretary Mnuchin, could reach 25%). My estimates suggest the same and point to following additional questions: - How transitory is the surge in joblessness? - Do current compositional trends worsen that hit particularly hard minorities and the young? - How big is the hit to wages and hours worked for those employed? #economy #markets #jobs #unemployment #unemployment #wages …see more

This article isn’t wrong “We may be used to it now, but step outside our new normal for a moment. If someone, without telling you why, had informed you last October that within a year, Europe's offices and city centres would stand deserted, its citizens subject to night-time curfews, alcohol bans, travel restrictions and the mandated wearing of face shields; that spending the night with one's non-live-in partner would be punishable by a fine and visiting one's family abroad would be banned - you might assume, horrified, that Kim Jong-Un, armed with more nukes than we previously knew existed, had rolled in and taken over the Western world If that same person told you that, no, this wouldn’t be the result of nuclear war, but a virus which in that year accounted for little more than two per cent of the total global death toll; one that presented some danger to the elderly and infirm but spared most of the population even from mild symptoms ... well. You probably wouldn't believe them” We’ve gone utterly nuts !!! From the Telegraph, a paper I’ve long hated but now begrudgingly respect …see more

It’s a classic Hobson’s choice before India: Spend now and take the risk of being downgraded as spending will bring back the economy on the growth path much faster. So, even if the downgrade happens, the growth will put pressure on the raters to upgrade India again. #spending #interestrates #rbipolicy #gdp #economicslowdown #recession …see more

Immortal mistakes and never too late to correct them. We all make professional mistakes, not taking on a client, not hiring that person, not focusing on emerging #markets and so on. Worse is we don’t use the opportunities to rectify them when we can.

Want to live the life of your dreams? Here's how (advice from MY experience, not a life coach 🙄) ⬇️ I always dreamed of a day I'd be out of debt set on by bills galore and the debt that follows serious health complications without insurance... (My mom is still whispering "I told you you should have opted for COBRA" under her breath 😄) But low and behold, with a PLAN and ACTION, I went from unemployed, unemployable and broke to a sought-after professional living comfortably! Gifting my better half the Camper and Chevy he's always wanted without living paycheck to paycheck. 💪 All because if setting goals and making plans while working with some very helpful mentors and hiring (or INVESTING IN) help. By setting goals, you get a clear life direction and get closer to what you want. A goal is like a destination you want to reach 🏝 It tells you which direction to go, so you don’t get lost or run around in circles. Goals are a necessary tool of life planning. So how are you going to make the most out if your future? How can we help you? By commenting below, maybe we can introduce you to some resources to get you on the right path! Cheers!
