About this listen

 How can a career built on curiosity reshape the way we think about health, access, and innovation? In this episode, Jane Sarason Kahan joins From Girl to Great to explore what it really means to drive change in healthcare and why the most powerful innovations aren't always the flashiest ones. Drawing on a career shaped by curiosity and a commitment to equity, Jane challenges us to look beyond cutting-edge treatments and ask who actually has access to care in the first place. From the social determinants of health to the exciting potential of food as medicine and the home as a health hub, Jane brings us back to the fundamentals and makes a compelling case for why prevention, not crisis response, is where real transformation begins. My Key Takeaways Follow the questions you can't stop asking. Jane's career is proof that curiosity, reading widely, and stepping outside your comfort zone can turn into genuine influence and impact. Innovation means little without access. The US may lead in developing new treatments, but many people still struggle to access basics like primary care and preventative support and that gap matters. Technology is a tool, not the goal. Jane isn't anti-AI, but she's clear-eyed about its role. What truly excites her is a system built around the home as a health hub, food as medicine, and paying for prevention before a crisis hits.
