How do you lead at the cutting edge of health, data, and AI—while staying deeply human?Angeli Möller has led global data science teams across pharma giants, co-founded one of Europe's most ambitious AI alliances, and now builds high-performance biotech strategies with precision. But what truly sets her apart isn't just her technical fluency—it's her clarity, courage, and care in how she builds teams, solves problems, and pushes the boundaries of innovation.In this episode, Angeli opens up about the quiet frustrations that fuel her mission, the invisible cost of ignoring innovation, and the principles that guide her client work today. Whether you're an investor, founder, or policymaker, her journey will reshape how you think about leadership, AI, and what truly moves the needle in healthcare.Here's what you'll take away:Why most AI projects fail—and how to spot the ones that won't.How to lead technical teams with vision, warmth, and accountability.Why proprietary data matters more than fancy algorithms.What real innovation feels like—and how to know when you're missing it.At the center of it all: a calm, fiercely smart leader who sees through the noise and builds what matters.As she says: “Start with the real problem. If you don't understand the problem, AI won't help you.”Timestamps & Topics

Happy Wednesday, it's time for our weekly chat, wahooo.A recent piece in the New York Times asked Is All of This Self-Monitoring Making Us Paranoid? It was all about wearable health technology such as Oura rings. Oura rings are smart devices worn on the finger that contain sensors so you can track over 20 biometrics such as sleep, movement, body temperature, stress, menstrual cycles and something called daily readiness. They're between around £350 and £500, which I don't believe covers a subscription to data and insights, which is an additional monthly or yearly fee, and they promise to “empower you to prioritise your long term health goals and build healthy habits that will last a lifetime.” The New York Times piece is really interesting, and explores how this kind of data isn't always a gateway to good physical health habits, but can for some people, increase their anxiety and unhealthy body monitoring habits. We get into it and hear from you, the listeners, too!We hope you enjoy, and as always please do follow + review the show on your podcast player app as it helps others to find the podcast :)O,R,B xIs All of This Self-Monitoring Making Us Paranoid?
