In this episode, we talk with Jeff Lake, founder and president of the Lake Foundation, a 501(c)(3) mental health nonprofit based in Clarks Summit focused on positive psychology. Jeff explains the research-based "science of happiness" model (genetics, life circumstances, and intentional activities) and how concepts like mindfulness, gratitude, creativity, community, and self-compassion support both prevention and recovery. He shares his background growing up in Scranton amid trauma, substance abuse, and addiction, and describes how experiences—including a life-changing trip to the Philippines, nursing at Geisinger, and work as a therapist—shaped the foundation's mission. The Lake Foundation has hosted mindfulness nature walks, a mental health book club, and a masquerade-themed fashion show, "Unmasking Mental Health," and is developing creative and humor-based programs. Jeff also discusses his decision to run for Pennsylvania State Senate District 22.To learn more about The Lake Foundation, please visit their website.

Send us Fan MailIn this conversation, Jill, a homeopathic practitioner specializing in women's health and fertility, shares her unexpected path into homeopathy, and how it became a lifelong practice focused on supporting mothers, conception, pregnancy, and postpartum care.We explore her clinical approach using fertility protocols, sarcodes, and targeted remedies, alongside the evolving challenges seen post-COVID, including shifts in fertility patterns and miscarriage rates. Jill also speaks to the importance of addressing the mother as the “hub” of the family system—where healing one woman can create ripple effects across the entire household.The discussion moves into making homeopathy more accessible and practical: from simple acute protocols for birth workers and families, to tissue salts as foundational tools, to the importance of having remedies ready before crisis moments arise. Jill also shares her work with trauma-informed homeopathy, highlighting its ability to support healing without requiring clients to relive traumatic experiences.At the heart of this episode is a shared theme: homeopathy doesn't need to be complicated to be effective. When simplified and applied practically, it becomes a powerful tool for families, practitioners, and birth professionals alike.Jill's practice focuses on women's health and helping families use homeopathy confidently at home. As a mom of four, she is passionate about simple, practical tools that support everyday health. In her 1:1 work, she focuses on women's health, with a special interest in fertility, hormonal and thyroid imbalances, autoimmune conditions, and mental health, taking a root-cause approach that also addresses the impact of past experiences and emotional health. Connect with Jill:https://herhomeopathy.ca/Instagram: @herhomeopathySupport the showFind Heather:Book with HeatherHeather's Free Product Guide with Discount CodesHeather's Instagram Find Vanessa:Vanessa's Instagram Vanessa's Website Free Product Guide with Discount CodesFree Homeopathy at Home Guide 

This episode features Allison Hess (Geisinger), and Tina Citro (WellSpan Health) discussing innovative projects recognized by the 2026 HAP Achievement Awards. The leaders share how their organizations are advancing community health, including Geisinger's Community Champions Award–winning Social Needs Resource Hub that connects patients to essential services.This Braver Angels update will highlight what's new and upcoming in Pennsylvania, including the launch of a new virtual alliance for individuals without access to an in-person alliance and the upcoming rollout of a Heritage Alliance. It will also preview the 2026 National Convention, taking place in Philadelphia June 25–28, themed “1776 to 2026: A Pledge Renewed.”

What we cover Risk stratification is ranking patients by probability of an adverse outcome. Traditional indices like the Charlson Comorbidity Index use clinician-designed scoring systems. ML-based approaches automate feature generation and let the model surface correlations that a heuristic would miss. The tradeoff is interpretability: with tens of thousands of computations per prediction, explaining a ranking to a clinician requires additional tooling. The data layer is harder than the model layer. Schema differences between organizations are structural: different table names, different column types, different ways of representing the same event. ML tolerates directional imperfection in a way that population analytics does not, but the cleanup is still slow and dependent on tribal knowledge that data owners often can't fully explain. Feature engineering is building hypotheses the model can test. An example we discussed was “if I'm trying to risk stratify kidney stones, what would my naive, non-doctor brain look into seeing if there's any relationship? Maybe soda intake. Maybe dehydration. Maybe SDOH. Those three things are all “features” in this context. The platform ClosedLoop built could generate complex clinical features in about ten minutes, which was most of the competitive advantage. Failure modes tend to be around operations, not accuracy of the algorithm. Buyers without a clear care management strategy can't actually impact patients on the list. ROI attribution takes years, by the which case people might revert to the mean. And without tracking what the clinical program is actually doing, you can't separate a model problem from a workflow problem ETHOS is Epic's transformer trained on serialized clinical event histories from 300 million patients. The way I think about this is if LLMs “predict the next word most likely to occur”, then ostensibly you could get a training set of healthcare events and “predict the next {event} most likely to occur” where {event} is NICU stay Brought to you by Toboggan Labs: A consultancy for healthcare builders.

By contrast, Alex really got into Dynasty Warriors in high school [10:43] The CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services) AI Health Outcomes Challenge. ClosedLoop won $1 million against some big names: Mayo Clinic, Geisinger, and Mathematica. The two components: predictive performance across 13 to 15 adverse outcomes, and interpretability for clinical teams [16:00] A layperson's definition of risk stratification: a ranked patient list by probability of an adverse outcome. The Charlson Comorbidity Index as a standard example, and why ML outperforms it once you need more than one outcome. [29:27] The data layer you need. Claims, EHR (Electronic Health Record) dumps, SDOH (Social Determinants of Health) feeds, ADT (Admission, Discharge, Transfer) data. This is hard because everybody has different schema: payer one's data looks nothing like payer two's, and the data “owner” often can't explain their own tables. [41:50] Feature engineering: building hypotheses the model can test. The difference between "feature" as a PM uses the word and "feature" as a data scientist uses it. [47:52] Interpretability: being able to tell a human being why a patient ranked where they did. Two structural issues: incomplete data and unknown causal frameworks [54:14] Failure modes: Buyers without a care management strategy. Reversion to the mean within two years and you don't know whether you made a difference. Not knowing where to cut the list (Patient number 50 vs 51?). And a related issue: missing data on what the clinical program is actually doing, which makes it impossible to separate a bad model from a bad workflow [01:09:39] Whether anyone should still learn traditional ML, or just LLMs. Shay's answer: gradient boosted trees and transformers are on a spectrum so it's kind of a false dichotomy. Then: the ETHOS paper from Epic, a transformer trained on 300 million patient records that enables one model for many outcomes and counterfactual inference. And what Shay is watching next: robotics and the last-mile problem. AI can identify a list of people with fall risk but something or someone still has to act on it

With a new state law now in effect, vape vendors in Pennsylvania may only purchase products from certified manufacturers. Geisinger and Risant Health are asking the Pennsylvania Insurance Department to lower the amount of money they have to keep in reserves. That could give the health system access to another 100 million dollars. The state’s largest healthcare workers’ union wants to know what Geisinger will do with that money. Brown and rainbow trout were recently stocked in a section of the Conowingo Creek in Lancaster County to highlight stream restoration efforts. The project was supported by two state grant programs that reduce pollution, restore waterways and support healthier aquatic ecosystems. The Republican-led Senate on Wednesday rejected the latest Democratic attempt to halt President Donald Trump’s war in Iran. Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman was the only Democrat to vote against it. Two Philadelphia-area men pleaded not guilty to charges they brought homemade bombs to an anti-Muslim protest outside New York City’s mayor's home, in a failed attempt at a terror attack inspired by the Islamic State group. Lawmakers in the state House passed a package of gas safety bills in the wake of a deadly Berks County chocolate factory blast in 2023. And now it’s time for our weekly segment called The Bright Spot. Every Friday, I’ll share a positive news story that may have gotten lost amid this week's news cycle. Today’s bright spot is this: Earlier this week, Birdnote told the story of environmental advocate Rosalie Barrow Edge – who spearheaded the campaign to acquire and preserve Hawk Mountain and its birds of prey. It was the world’s first refuge for raptors – right here in Pennsylvania, in Berks County.

A former U-S Attorney in Pittsburgh will lead a new White House task force to eliminate fraud. Pennsylvania home care workers, who provide daily caregiving to seniors and others, say an additional $800 million dollars is needed to raise reimbursement rates and pay for workers. They want to see some of that money in the next state budget. A York doctor accused of sexually abusing women under his care at a drug treatment clinic pleaded guilty Monday to a handful of the 92 charges he faced. Many businesses across the country and across Pennsylvania are seeking tariff refunds from the federal government. And a deep dive: Last June, our friends at WPSU reported on public outcry surrounding the increased use of “facility fees” at Geisinger outpatient clinics in the State College area. Since then, more than 20 people have reached out to our colleagues in WPSU's newsroom with their experiences and many remaining questions. And these questions and issues are happening well beyond State College and Geisinger in communities across Pennsylvania. Today we begin a three-part series, looking into WHAT a facility fee is, WHY hospitals charge them, and what’s being done at the state level to protect people against surprise bills from facility fees. Today, in part one, Sydney Roach from our friends at WPSU introduces what a facility fee is by sharing listeners' stories. In uncertain times, our community counts on facts, not noise.

Governor Josh Shapiro says he wants to be sure Pennsylvania plays a key role in developing artificial intelligence, as well as providing the energy needed to support it. Speaking at an energy and A-I summit in Pittsburgh this week, Shapiro said the state's skilled workforce and natural gas reserves helped attract a $20 billion dollar investment in new data centers recently pledged by Amazon. A number of large-scale data center projects were announced across the state including a $15 billion project planned for the Carlisle area, a $6 billion project in the Lancaster area and a $5 billion project planned for York County. A nonprofit group that helps unemployed people stay in their homes is calling for state property reassessment laws to be updated. The lawsuit could affect property owners across the state. Another attempt is being made to eliminate local property taxes in Pennsylvania: This latest effort, in the form of an amendment to the state Constitution, is co-sponsored by state Senator Doug Mastriano of Franklin County. It would prohibit school districts from collecting property taxes beginning July first, 2029 and require the General Assembly to come up with another funding method for public schools. Some state lawmakers are taking another shot at legalizing adult cannabis use in Pennsylvania. Senators Daniel Laughlin and Sharif Street, as well as Representatives Emily Kinkead and Abby Major introduced bipartisan recreational cannabis bills just four days apart. Both bills incentivize minority, women and veteran-owned small businesses to open dispensaries across the state. Pennsylvania is one of 49 states sharing in a 20 million dollar settlement with drug maker Gilead Sciences. It stems from a lawsuit which accused Gilead of illegally providing financial and other incentives to medical personnel in exchange for promoting and prescribing its HIV medications. Danville-based Geisinger is eliminating nearly 100 Geisinger Health Plan positions as part of an "operational restructuring" amid financial challenges that include a $231 million operating loss last year. Four independent voters in Pennsylvania are asking the state Supreme Court to rule that the closed primary system violates the state constitution. They filed a lawsuit arguing that keeping independents out of primaries effectively denies them the right to vote in many districts where primaries determine the outcome.

An interesting new study from the Geisinger health system in Pennsylvania examining if genomic screening in a large population increases the identification of disease risk prompted Raise the Line to re-release a previous episode about a textbook designed to help all medical providers understand the clinical applications of genomic testing. Genomics in the Clinic: A Practical Guide to Genetic Testing, Evaluation, and Counseling from Elsevier Science Direct dives into the use of this important tool in diagnosis and screening, indicating how individuals may respond to drug therapies, and more. “We really need to educate all healthcare providers about the practice of genetics because they're going to be involved directly or indirectly in genetic testing and conveying information about what the results mean to patients and their families,” explains co-author Dr. Ethylin Wang Jabs, enterprise chair of the Department of Clinical Genomics for Mayo Clinic. Jabs and her co-author, Dr. Antonie Kline, director of Clinical Genetics at the Harvey Institute for Human Genetics at Greater Baltimore Medical Center, chose a format that makes heavy use of case studies to help readers get a better grasp on this complicated field and they also include chapters on direct-to-consumer testing and the ethical and social implications in genomic medicine. “Any kind of potentially predictive testing can have ethical issues related to it, including insurance coverage, testing for family members, protections for minors, and more,” says Dr. Kline. Join host Caleb Furnas for an illuminating episode on an area of discussion in medicine that's growing in importance as the use of genetic testing rapidly increases. Mentioned in this episode: Genomics in the Clinic: A Practical Guide If you like this podcast, please share it on your social channels.

Yes, it's about Danville. No, it's not because I had to go to Geisinger!  I've been going to Danville for years, almost always for the same reason: to go to Old Forge Brewing. And that's what I did this time, to interview owners Damien and Maria Malfara. I also went to the two coffee roasters in town, Java Momma and Bason Coffee Roasting, then to Rock God Brewing (been meaning to do that for a while now), and I'll tell you about the Shade Mountain Winery tasting room, and the J. Manley Robbins rail trail.  I had one of Old Forge's T-Rail Pale Ales for the What I'm Drinking Today segment, and it was a beauty. The HVAB sponsorship spot was about three great fine dining spots in Centre County.  I'll also tell you about the...pastrami? Montreal smoked meat? Well, the smoked corned beef I made for our St. Patrick's Day family dinner, and then the fun traditional music session we took part in at Elk Creek Cafe on the actual St. Patrick's Day.  The next episode will probably be an interview with Wild For Salmon's Steve Kurian, all about fishing in Alaska, and bringing the salmon back to Pennsylvania for us to find at our local independent grocery store or restaurant. It's an excellent interview, one of the best I've done, I think. But I've got two others to choose from, so I'm not sure which one you'll get.  I'm trying to do better with the Instagram feed; bear with me. Thinking about video, too.

Governor Josh Shapiro’s budget plan would more than double the state’s Ag Innovation Fund. The governor is also hoping to lower energy costs for families -- as part of his budget proposal, and legalize marijuana in Pennsylvania. Geisinger’s unionized Luzerne County nurses are voicing their demands for their updated contract in one last effort to avoid a strike. Pennsylvania is using some of its opioid settlement money to support harm reduction services in Philadelphia. A Lancaster County nonprofit that helps refugees and immigrants has furloughed much of its staff. The heist of 100,000 eggs from the back of a trailer in Franklin County has become a whodunit that police have yet to crack. Host Tim Lambert offers his thanks -- as his time with WITF winds down.
