Stronger Hearts: Part 2 - It Takes a Team
from The One Percent Heart · host One Percent Heart
How do you build a nonprofit while working 60-hour weeks and raising a baby with HLHS?In Part 2, Connor Hill breaks down exactly what Stronger Hearts Foundation has accomplished in just a few months — from hitting their $20,000 goal by October to delivering 30 care packages CHOP, with expansion to Johns Hopkins already underway. We get into the real numbers, the real hours, and why a clinical coordinator at Hopkins straight up called him crazy.We also talk about the teamwork it takes — both at home with his wife Kali and within the foundation — and why having patients and parents as advocates alongside medical professionals makes such a difference.Connor closes with one of the most powerful answers I've heard to "What does CHD mean to you?" — and it's worth sticking around for.Learn more about Stronger Hearts Foundation: http://strongerheartsfoundation.com/Contacts: The 1% Heart — onepercentheart.com • Instagram @theCHDpodcast • Email: [email protected] & Trigger Warning: Nothing in this episode constitutes medical advice.
