The challenges healthcare executives and administrators face are constantly changing. Host Kevin Stevenson talks with the heroes behind the heroes that are enabling hospitals, urgent care centers and telemedicine operators to spend their time tending to patients, while they handle the logistics.

Building relationships is essential. Making sure we build strong relationships with our family, friends, and colleagues are crucial for us to have a meaningful life. For a combined 45 years, Professors Carole Robin, Ph.D., and David Bradford, Ph.D., taught how to break through superficial interactions, get real and create meaningful connections with people in every aspect of life through their course, Interpersonal Dynamics.

In this episode of I Don’t Care, Host Kevin Stevenson talked with the dynamic duo about healthy relationships and their new book CONNECT: Building Exceptional Relationships with Family, Friends, & Colleagues.

“It’s [the book] about creating more functional healthy relationships,” Robin said.

Life is complicated, especially when it comes to relationships. There are many intricacies involved in making sure we maintain solid foundations with those around us. In their book, they talk about everything from expectations to conflict. They also dig in on the meaningfulness of taking a relationship from casual to something more profound.

What they are doing seems to be working. Robin mentioned they get emails from students and former students lauding them with praise.

“We get emails and phone calls from them saying ‘You saved my marriage,’” Robin said.

There are a few big moments in the big book. One of those is called “Take Disclosure Risks.” In this, the authors explain how to tell someone something about yourself. This builds trust, and it doesn’t have to be a significant thing.

To learn more about the authors and the book, listen to this episode.

Eli Lilly’s $6.5B Houston Bet Highlights U.S. Pharma Reshoring

Eli Lilly’s $6.5B Houston Bet Highlights U.S. Pharma Reshoring

Eli Lilly has broken ground on a $6.5 billion manufacturing facility in Houston, slated for completion around 2030. While attention has focused on scaling production of Foundayo, its oral GLP-1 treatment, the project also reflects broader U.S. efforts to rebuild domestic pharmaceutical manufacturing and highlights the supply chain challenge of forecasting demand and building capacity years in advance.

  • 01Eli Lilly commits $6.5 billion to a Houston pharmaceutical manufacturing facility due for completion around 2030, one of the largest single U.S. pharma production investments in recent years
  • 02GLP-1 demand forecasting remains highly uncertain: Lilly's CEO noted that one-third of new GLP-1 pill patients are now choosing Foundayo, illustrating fast-moving market share shifts that complicate production planning years in advance
  • 03Houston's selection reflects industrial capacity and workforce depth, positioning the region as a biomanufacturing corridor and creating long-term hiring demand in engineering, quality control, and skilled trades

Waiting for perfectly clean data is stalling healthcare AI, not protecting it

Healthcare organizations often delay AI initiatives waiting for perfectly clean data, but this assumption no longer holds: reliable subsets and synthetic data allow projects to start now while data work continues in parallel. Success requires starting with business outcomes rather than technology capabilities, and embedding governance in product strategy before implementation, not after.

  • 01Waiting for 100% clean data is effectively a decision never to start; hospital AI projects can begin on reliable data subsets while quality work continues in parallel.
  • 02Frame AI decisions around business outcomes (revenue growth, cost reduction, competitive advantage, new products, or ecosystem influence) rather than asking what AI can do.
  • 03Governance should be part of product strategy before design or purchase, especially as agentic AI takes actions—such as handling many revenue-cycle denials—while routing the rest to humans.
