In this engaging episode of the Executive Connect Podcast, I welcomed Becca Yanniello, a seasoned professional with over 15 years of experience in public health and a strong commitment to population health management.

We spoke about

· What is the fundamental difference between public health and traditional healthcare, and why is understanding this difference crucial in today's world?

· What areas fall under the wide-ranging umbrella of public health, and how do they collectively contribute to the well-being of communities and populations?

· Why is public health important in the modern world, and how has the COVID-19 pandemic brought its significance to the forefront of public awareness?

· What actions can individuals and communities take to promote public health, and what are some key life hacks that can help improve overall well-being?

· How can children and young people be educated about public health concepts, and what is the significance of fostering an early understanding of these principles in youth?

Additionally, Becca introduced her book, "A Kid's Book About Public Health," which serves as a valuable resource for educating children on the vital concepts of public health.
