45. How Does Participatory Medicine Influence Human Behavior? w/ Katie Baric

How do you change behavior in people who have lived in a system where healthcare is built on the idea of being sick?

In this episode, co-founder and executive director of Hands on Peru, Katie Baric, steps into the spotlight to share her story from growing up in North Carolina to bringing a positive public health change to Peruvian communities. We speak about her organization's shift in healthcare perspective, moving from a reactive to a proactive stance, the concept of participatory healthcare, and the birth of Chimuk, an ethical fashion line that is redefining community empowerment.
