Elizabeth Santo is a physical therapist who discovered that treating individual patients wasn't enough when one in four women suffer from conditions the medical system barely acknowledges. Now she's leading clinical program management for a digital health company, where biofeedback sensors, AI, and human clinicians converge to solve what traditional healthcare hasn’t been able to.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• How she transitioned to clinic-based PT to a role developing clinical programs at a unicorn health tech company
• What "program management" actually means when you're translating clinical insights for engineers who've never treated a patient
• Why pelvic health has been systematically ignored and how technology is finally changing that
• The real work of scaling clinical programs: maintaining rigor while serving thousands instead of dozens
• Why your clinical background might be your secret weapon in product development

If you've ever wondered whether there's more impact beyond the treatment room, how to speak both clinical and tech fluently, or what it takes to build healthcare solutions that actually address overlooked patient needs, this conversation will show you what's possible.
