But what if technology could actually help?Guest: Wynter Johnson, President & Co-Founder at CailyWynter brings a unique perspective to healthcare technology—she's building solutions not just for patients, but for the millions of family caregivers who coordinate care, manage medications, and provide daily support while juggling their own careers and families.Key insights from our conversation:👉🏻 The Hidden Caregiver CrisisWynter reveals the staggering scope of family caregiving in America and why traditional healthcare tech ignores this massive population.
