Dr. Anaïs Webster Mennuti, PharmD
Co-founder of Shots With That LLC
Marie Wilda,
Founder/CEO Lenkai.co

In this week's episode Michelle and Joan sit down with producers, Anaïs and Marie, to learn more about the driving factors behind their documentary film, Harmacy, including their personal experiences and funding sought to make it happen. While Big Pharma and the opioid epidemic have flooded our culture and consciousness, less attention has been paid to pharmacies themselves - their workers, and the people they serve.

As corporate chains have elbowed out community pharmacies, pharmacists and pharmacy technicians also experience burnout, depression, anxiety, panic attacks, miscarriage, and even death. Patients experience frustration and fear of not being able to fill their prescriptions on time and the harmful repercussions that result. Our conversation looks at what it takes to bring this project (or any) to life - experience, persistence, money and connections are just the beginning.

The question of "What qualifies you?" is familiar territory for women and underrepresented leaders in every industry and position. Join us for (another) candid conversation about why shedding light is important, what it takes to be heard, and the value of just doing the thing in order to prove your concept and build momentum.

If you're thinking about any of the following, this one's for you:

  • The hidden costs of things often not discussed
  • Timing of pursuing a larger platform to tell your story
  • Finding a team to help you flesh out a concept
  • Valuing your time and effort in relation to budget
  • Breaking into an industry as an outsider
  • Understanding where your work fits in a larger cultural context
  • Using your lived and professional experience to do something others can't

Oh, and stick around until the very end of the episode to learn about our surprise sponsor!
