You Have to Be Well to Do Well: A Conversation with Melinda French Gates on Power, Healing and Women’s Health

from Mindful Mondays with Shudu · host Shudu Musida

In this powerful episode of Mindful Mondays with Shudu, I sit down with philanthropist, author, and founder of Pivotal Ventures, Melinda French Gates . We explore the profound connections between women’s health, mental health, and empowerment — and why healing is one of the most radical forms of power.Melinda opens up about transitions, resilience, and what she’s learned in this new chapter of her life — including why she committed $1 billion to advancing women’s power and equality. Together, we reflect on what it means to “be a greenhouse” — nurturing growth, hope, and healing even in difficult seasons, and how we can each become allies in this collective journey toward equity and wellbeing.💬 Follow @mindfulmondayspod on Instagram | Subscribe on YouTube and Spotify
