    What if we all had access to quality healthcare? What if

    healthcare was more transparent? What if we were able to remove some of the barriers to seeking and receiving care? Would heart disease still be the #1 killer? In this episode we dive into these topics with Dr. Eva Imperial, a physician for our virtual health team AND the founder and CEO of iHLTH, a female,

Along with our discussion on quality healthcare and accessibility, we also talk about some of the very basics for heart health, when to seek in-person care, how you can make virtual care work for you, and (every coach's favorite) how you can take some baby steps to establish habits that will help improve your health.
