In this episode of The Healthy Mind Shift, host Anh sits down with Caitlin, Senior Director for Global Public Health at BD, award-winning leader, and mother of two. From receiving Singapore’s National Medal of Service for her role during COVID-19 to building cross-border partnerships for underserved populations, Caitlin shares what it means to lead with optimism in the middle of global health turbulence.
Together, we explore:
Why equity and access require letting go of old assumptions
How global health innovations are flowing from the Global South back to developed countries
The evolving role of public-private partnerships when donor funding shrinks
Navigating career transitions across NGOs, government, and industry
The traits that help women leaders step forward, even before they feel “ready”
This is an open conversation on resilience, purpose, and redefining leadership in times of uncertainty.
