Welcome to TBLI Radical Truth, where knowledge inspires and we spotlight the bold leaders transforming systems at the intersection of finance, equity, and impact.

In this episode, we’re joined by Allison Sesso, President & CEO of Undue Medical Debt a groundbreaking nonprofit that has already erased over $10 billion in medical debt—and counting.

In “Medical Debt Abolishment,” we explore how a seemingly intractable crisis—medical debt—is being tackled through an elegant, highly leveraged model. With 1 in 4 Americans burdened by medical debt and millions pushed toward bankruptcy, Allison and her team are proving that medical debt relief isn’t just charity—it’s a powerful form of economic and social intervention.

Undue Medical Debt turns every $1 donated into $100 of debt relief, targeting individuals most in need. Backed by visionary philanthropists like MacKenzie Scott, their work not only reduces suffering but restores financial dignity across communities nationwide.

TBLI Radical Truth brings you innovative thinkers reshaping the world of ESG and impact—from finance to health, from systems to solutions.
