This week, Marissa sits down to talk with Dr. Omolora Thomas Uwemedimo of Melanin & Medicine. Dr. Omolora is not new to life shift, she's true to it. She starts the conversation by sharing with Marissa everything she knows to be true about shifting and dives deeper into what she feels to be the most transformational shift to date (4:19). When Dr. Omolora found herself suddenly hospitalized and unable to walk, she had to quickly reevaluate everything she once thought about her self worth and her true meaning in the workplace (7:00). Dr. Omolora recalls a moment where she prayed to God for clarity on how to execute the vision she knows she's called to do (12:49). She gets real about the difficulty of asking for help in the medical profession and talks about the moment she stepped out on faith and decided that it actually was okay to need help to reach your full potential (20:26). Often times, high achievers hold business as a badge of honor, but Marissa and Dr. Omolora relate to each other while discussing the importance of slowing down and valuing yourself (22:26). Dr. Omolora then reflects on the time in her life where she felt the most free and dives deep into the importance of determining your own course in life in order to find the happiest version of yourself (34:19).
We have Dr. Omolara Thomas Uwemedimo as a guest on this week's Race to Value! She is a healthcare social entrepreneur, board-certified pediatrician, community health equity consultant, career transition and business coach, public health researcher, and health justice advocate. She is currently the CEO and Co-Founder of Strong Children Wellness, a multi-award winning healthcare practice in New York City, providing integrated, physical, mental, and social health services for low-income communities of color. Back in 2019, Omolara lost her ability to walk. She was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, a chronic autoimmune condition. During her recovery, she became a staunch wellness advocate for women of color who in healthcare often experience disproportionally higher rates of chronic disease due to weathering – the deterioration of one's health due to medical racism and toxic environmental stress in the workplace and in society. In response, she founded “Melanin and Medicine”, a community health equity consulting and social entrepreneurship company that helps women of color thrive by building purposeful careers within healthcare enterprises. She also has a weekly podcast called “Funding Your Healthcare Vision” that helps visionary leaders of health centers & practices to secure grants, contracts and other funding to strengthen, scale & sustain their vision, mission & impact to support under-resourced communities of color. With her leadership insights, you too can break the barriers to health justice by building a healthcare social enterprise built on CBO partnerships and social impact innovation!
