In this engaging discussion with Shara Cohen, the CEO of Carallel, we explore her journey from a history major with a passion for volunteering to a leader in the healthcare industry. Shara shares her early experiences as a candy striper, delivering meals on wheels, and how those moments helped shape her career path. We also discuss her time at Berkeley, law school, and her work with the Oakland A's, which provided valuable life lessons and fueled her passion for healthcare and legal topics.

We then dive into the mission and purpose of Carallel, a company  geared to serving  family caregivers. Discover how Carallel provides a human-led, tech-enabled service that makes caregiving easier and helps healthcare organizations and employers deliver a caregiver strategy to attract and retain members.
