In this week's episode we sit down with @Alenka Kysilik, founder of SAHA Collective. We follow the journey she took through a Corporate Workplace for 15 years before having a *vision* to go and solve the mismatch between Providers of Care and Seekers of Care, often when conventional medicine isn't a fit or the process breaks down.

Alenka creates a marketplace where you can get matched up with your Ideal Provider, based on values and shared visions of "fast" versus "slow" medicine.
