"Fentanyl poisoning is the number one killer and leading cause of death in our country for ages 18 to 45 years old." -Cammie Wolf Rice   Cami Wolf Rice is the founder of the CWC Alliance, a pioneering organization in the fight against opioids and fentanyl. Her work is largely motivated by personal tragedy, having lost both her eldest son and brother to opioid overdose and fentanyl poisoning, respectively. Cami is deeply committed to raising awareness about the devastating impact of these substances. Her efforts include advocating for the availability and knowledge of Narcan (naloxone) and creating programs aimed at youth prevention and mental health support.   Episode Summary: The latest episode of "All My Health, There's Hope," hosted by Jana Short, features a poignant conversation with Cami Wolf Rice. As a returning guest, Cami shares her ongoing battle against the opioid crisis and fentanyl epidemic. Her motivation stems from personal loss, with her son and brother both having fallen victim to these pervasive substances. Through the CWC Alliance, Cami has been pivotal in driving change and crafting preventive strategies, focusing on educating youth and increasing awareness of life-saving interventions like Narcan. In this gripping discussion, Cami underscores the gravity of the fentanyl crisis, citing it as the leading cause of death among 18- to 45-year-olds in the U.S. This episode delves into the deceptive nature of counterfeit drugs and the need for everyone, not just users, to be educated about Narcan. Cami introduces her innovative Youth Prevention Network, a peer-to-peer initiative that empowers young people to raise awareness and help their peers navigate substance use and mental health challenges. The episode is a call to action for listeners to engage in open conversations and proactively participate in combating this devastating public health crisis.   Key Takeaways: Cami Wolf Rice's personal tragedies have fueled her mission against opioids and fentanyl, leading to the inception of the CWC Alliance. Fentanyl is the leading cause of death for people aged 18-45 in the U.S., driven by its inclusion in counterfeit drugs. Narcan (naloxone) is a vital tool in preventing overdose deaths and should be widely available in homes and public spaces. The Youth Prevention Network empowers young people to become advocates and educators about the dangers of substance use. Open communication and proactive education on drug safety and mental health are critical in addressing the opioid and fentanyl crises.   Resources:Resources: Website: https://cwc.ngo/ https://cammiewolfrice.com/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cammierice/ IG: https://www.instagram.com/cwcalliance ‌   ✨ Enjoying the show?

Through honesty, humor, and insight, this conversation challenges listeners to embrace accountability, learning, and unlearning in the ongoing fight for justice and inclusion.What We're Talking About...Dr. Akilah Cadet reminds us that real progress begins when we learn to be comfortable with discomfort.Diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts are facing growing resistance in today's social and business climate.White supremacy is sustained by fear and the desire to hold on to power.True change requires more than allyship — it calls for becoming an active accomplice in the fight for equity.Parents play a vital role in helping future generations understand race, privilege, and empathy.Growth happens through both learning and unlearning, with humility as the foundation.Accountability is essential for individuals and institutions that perpetuate harm.Dr. Cadet's co-ownership of Bay Area soccer teams shows why representation matters in every industry.Dismantling systemic racism is a collective effort that depends on everyone's participation.Dr. Cadet's story highlights both the challenges and the strength of marginalized communities.Chapters00:00 Introduction and Background of Dr. Akilah Cadet07:48 The Impact of 2020 on DEI Work13:49 The Role of Fear in White Supremacy19:45 Understanding Allyship vs. Accompliceship25:30 Raising Awareness and Responsibility in Parenting30:38 Understanding Privilege and Humanity34:22 Learning and Unlearning in Society36:40 Calling In vs. Calling Out39:38 Navigating Racism in Professional Spaces41:26 Becoming a Co-Owner in Sports54:24 Personal Reflections and Future Aspirations54:52 Embracing Discomfort for Change55:20 Accountability and Awareness in SocietyLinks MentionedSocials : @changecadetDr. Akilah Cadet's Website: https://www.changecadet.com/White Supremacy Is All Around: https://www.hachettebookgroup.com/titles/akilah-cadet-dhsc-mph/white-supremacy-is-all-around/9780306831034/Dr. Akilah Cadet's Substack: https://changecadetactionnetwork.substack.com/Author BioDr. Akilah Cadet is the Founder and CEO of Change Cadet, an organizational development and creative consulting firm that offers services that support embedding belonging into overall company culture, identity, strategy and storytelling.

Raising Awareness: What We Can Learn from Axogen's Successful Patient Advocacy Campaign

Welcome to the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence.On today's episode, Sara Payne sits down with Emily Hansen, Senior Director of the Resensation program at Axogen, to discuss how healthcare brands can leverage thought leadership to reshape public perceptions, influence behavior change, and ultimately become architects of a health revolution.As a specialist in advocacy and education, Emily champions awareness about a lesser-known but highly prevalent outcome of breast cancer surgery: chronic numbness following a mastectomy. Through her work at Axogen, she's spearheading a movement to empower breast cancer patients and their care teams with knowledge and solutions that can dramatically enhance quality of life beyond survival—focusing on nerve repair and the pioneering Resensation procedure.In this thought-provoking conversation, Sara and Emily explore the intersection of marketing, education, and advocacy. They dive into the challenges of raising awareness about health issues shrouded by misconceptions, the vital role of patient advocates, and how moving beyond short-term wins toward long-term health movements is key to redefining standards of care. You'll hear about real strategies for engaging the survivor community, addressing clinician knowledge gaps, and the ongoing effort to translate awareness into tangible business and health outcomes.Thank you for being part of the Health Marketing Collective, where strong leadership meets marketing excellence. The future of healthcare depends on it.Key Takeaways:Marketing as a Catalyst for Health Movements:Emily illustrates how powerful marketing can spark a health movement—even for issues that have been historically overlooked. By focusing efforts on educating both patients and clinicians about post-mastectomy numbness and offering actionable solutions, the Resensation program exemplifies marketing's role in not just awareness, but wholesale perception change within healthcare.Stakeholder-Centric Communication:Reaching both patients and providers requires tailored messaging and a multi-pronged approach. Emily explains that effective campaigns must bridge awareness gaps in diverse audiences, from general consumers and advocacy groups to the full spectrum of clinicians. The Resensation team balances highly technical provider information with relatable patient stories to ensure relevance and clarity across all touchpoints.The Power (and Sensitivity) of Patient Advocacy:Patient advocates are not mere influencers; they are individuals with lived experiences and deep personal investment. Emily shares how collaborating authentically with survivor communities—such as The Breasties—can accelerate education and trust. She emphasizes the importance of letting advocates' voices lead and prioritizing the issue above the brand to build an enduring movement.Long-Term Commitment Over Short-Term Wins:Creating lasting change in public and professional awareness isn't achieved through one-off major media hits. Instead, it demands continuous investment, evolving narratives, and relationship-building across years. Emily underscores that consistent, layered outreach (PR, education, advocacy partnerships, and digital content) is essential for sustaining momentum and meeting both patient and business objectives.Measuring Impact: Business and Behavioral Outcomes:The Resensation campaign's success isn't just marked by media impressions, but by tangible growth in web traffic, patient referrals, and most compellingly, provider demand for training. Emily discusses the importance of presenting both quantitative metrics and qualitative anecdotes to executive leaders as evidence of progress, and how adapting data models helps demonstrate true business value over time.For more information about the Resensation program, including educational resources and a...

It is estimated that 982,000 people are living with dementia in the UK today, rising to 1.4 million by 2040. In 2022 it was the leading cause of death in the UK. Globally the World Health Organisation estimates that 57 million people have dementia. New cases are occurring at the rate of nearly 10 million each year, which breaks down to about one new case every 3.2 seconds. In the UK, the estimated economic impact of dementia in 2024 was £42.5 billion, a figure that is expected to more than double by 2040.
