About This Podcast
Most health professionals are good at their job. Fewer feel like their job is actually good for them.
Evolving in Healthcare is for the ones sitting with that gap. Each episode, Dr Ruth Vo talks with a health professional who has navigated a real career crossroads. The pivots, the slow burns, the moments something shifted, and what it actually took to move.
No shortcuts. No tidy success stories. Just honest accounts of how real people figured out what a career worth having actually looks like for them.
Hosted by Dr Ruth Vo, dietitian and professional identity coach with 20 years in healthcare.
