Healthcare Reform, Purpose, and Giving: A Conversation w/ Mike McLain

I would love to hear from you!

Former Lieutenant Colonel Mike McClain shares his journey from military service to healthcare reform advocate, exploring how authentic identity, healthcare transparency, and global giving can transform lives and systems. Mike reveals how finding his true purpose led him to leave a promising military career to pursue his calling of redeeming healthcare in America.

• Identity flows from understanding your core self, beyond external validation and accolades
• Creating space for solitude and reflection is essential for discovering authentic purpose
• Work-life "balance" naturally follows when you operate from genuine identity
• American healthcare ranks lowest in quality and highest in cost among top GDP countries
• Pharmaceutical pricing lacks transparency, with many medications costing 10x more than necessary
• Pharmacy Benefit Managers receive rebates for certain drugs, creating misaligned incentive structures
• Consistency in health habits matters more than extreme programs or diets
• The "1040 window" contains over 80% of the world's material poverty
• Those with the highest material wealth often experience the deepest spiritual poverty
• Giving creates a beautiful exchange where both giver and receiver benefit
