The powerful are not homogenous. The person-first approach (meet people where they are) can help us better strategize and advocate for partnership and shared decision-making in health choices, research, practice, policy, or equity.

About the Show
Welcome to Health Hats, learning on the journey toward best health. I am Danny van Leeuwen, a two-legged, old, cisgender, white man with privilege, living in a food oasis, who can afford many hats and knows a little about a lot of healthcare and a lot about very little. Most people wear hats one at a time, but I wear them all at once. We will listen and learn about what it takes to adjust to life's realities in the awesome circus of healthcare. Let's make some sense of all this.

Greetings, readers and listeners. Have I expressed my gratitude out loud to you recently? I’m grateful for your participation in my musings and curiosity while learning on the journey toward best health. I’m grateful to my guests who allow us some moments of intimacy with them to peek into their passion and expertise. I love that I can roam where the spirit moves me, and you still return. Thank you. From my heart, thank you. Each interview episode takes from 12-20 hours to produce – a labor of love. Recently, I’ve alternated interview episodes with much shorter on-mic episodes – on mic means just me.  These take six to ten hours to produce and leaves me more time to play music. I’m continually surprised as people reach out to share a connection they felt during an interview or on mic episode.
