On Purpose with Jaennika James

The On Purpose podcast is created to inspire and remind women in healthcare administration or any healthcare profession that they truly deserve a seat at the table, no matter where they are in their career. With the healthcare industry constantly changing, we are the next generation of leaders and providers who will be impacting the lives and health of those we encounter everyday. On Purpose is a space to connect, learn and grow with other women in the healthcare industry through having real-talk conversations, story-telling, interviews and embracing all the changes we experience as women. With this shared space, we can continue to show up in our careers and for the many communities we serve. Because the more women in healthcare like you, the more we can make the impact and change we wish to see in healthcare with purpose!
