This week, Lacey sits down with her college friend Amelia — and yes, they do start with a little nostalgic spiral about their first job mixing cocktails on campus. But from there, it gets into all things health tech.
Amelia is now a Product Owner at a health tech company, and she’s got a story. We’re talking: prepping for the MCAT, applying to 20+ med schools… and then pulling out of all of them. Yep. Full pivot energy. She walks us through how she trusted her gut, started from scratch, and found her way into an industry she loves.
If you're curious about health tech, want the inside scoop on what a Product Owner actually does, or just need a reminder that it’s okay to change your mind — this episode is it. Amelia drops the kind of honest, no-fluff advice we all need more of.
Pour a coffee (or a cocktail), and press play! Enjoy!
