Who was your inspiration? What was your epiphany with the way that you're thinking? Because I think that it's important for me to know, and I think it's important for people to hear that, because I think the things that you're saying, we need to hear more of.

So I'm gonna ask you this from a community perspective, okay? A community is often pointing fingers at medicine and at public health about its issues. My question to you is, what should the expectations of public health be for the community?

Yeah, okay. This is one of the biggest issues for me in terms of this whole idea about having healthier communities is that I think sometimes the expectation on communities from healthcare leaders is not enough. I think that people are afraid of being critical and saying that this is not working or people are afraid of being, of hurting people's feelings when we have these diseases.

I think that people are afraid of being critical and saying that this is not working or people are afraid of being, of hurting people's feelings when we have these diseases.
And yet by not being, by not having higher expectations, people are dying. Okay. So the question I'm really trying to see is that I know that many times people have their favorites. It's easy to go to these organizations and give them money because you are accustomed to them.

And people are sick of how they've ever been.

That makes no sense to me. That makes no sense to me. And so I'm not getting on the soapbox. I'm just saying, I just want to kind of figure out how then do we have this, this honest conversation, talk about authenticity. We have this authentic conversation about what is really needed and what is really expected as we start talking about these healthcare chronic diseases and illnesses.
