S06, Ep 03: Giving Healthcare a Destination, featuring David Mair

Whether it’s choosing a doctor, hospital or other medical provider, or paying for high cost prescription medications, health care is front and center in most of our lives these days. People are looking for solutions to spread their financial resources without sacrificing quality or skipping necessary care. It can feel like a rat race with no way out.

One of those solutions is something many of us are not aware of, something called destination medical care, the idea of traveling to medical center other than the closest one to come up with the best outcome, timely access to care and manageable costs. Where this was once seen as only for wealthy, individual patients, it’s now become a practical option for companies trying to manage benefit costs and individual patient alike.

Our guest today has taken this concept to the next level and not only made good care available to more people he’s found ways to make it affordable, available and practical.

Our guest today has made a career of knowing what diamond gifts work best on what occasion and for his expertise in charting the future of this fascinating industry.

During storm season in the U.S., it seems no one is immune to the ravages of the weather.

When your home and livelihood are at stake, timing is everything. And having the right coach or advisor close by can make all the difference between distress and comfort. When storm damage occurs, you not only need to be aware of what it will take to rebuild or repair your damaged property, there are regulations and laws in place that need to be taken into consideration.

S 03, Ep 01: A New Beginning

Hi and welcome to Coffee with Claire!

Today’s theme is going to be about resilience.

The definition of resilience is the capacity to recover quickly from difficulties; toughness.

At the beginning of anything new, there’s always excitement and an adrenaline rush as you build that something that has never been built before.

You figure it out, you put processes together, and pretty soon, you have a well-oiled machine that you understand and know you can depend on.

Then, one day, you hit a snag–something completely unexpected, and out of your control.  Everything you worked for is suddenly gone.  You’re left standing at a crossroads.    Which road do you choose?

Path #1 is easy.  You quit.  You throw in the towel.  You decide that the thing that happened was a sign that you weren’t supposed to do it anymore anyways.

Path #2 is you pick yourself up, gather the pieces you can find, and re-invent and re-create those that you can’t.  It takes time and it takes money that you didn’t think you had, but you find ways to make it work.

Not everyone will pick Path #2.  It may not be feasible.  But those who are successful know there’s going to be up’s and downs.  You’re never 100% right, or profitable, or marketable or whatever other adjective you want to inject.  However, it’s the people who have resilience in their blood that are willing to try again.  Maybe do it a little differently this next time around, but it’s definitely worth it in their minds.

The resilience I am speaking about specifically is Coffee with Claire, and how I came to the conclusion that just because we hit a major bump in the road didn’t mean we veered off the road, took the wheels off the bus, and walked home.  Would it have been easy?  Sure.  But I wasn’t done, and I wasn’t going to give up.

Stay tuned, and follow the path of our show to Coffee with Claire version “2.0”

On the first episode of Season 3 of the show, Claire Billingsley sits down with Paul Maynard, Claire’s Communications Director, to talk about this new beginning. But where’s the new show happening? What can you expect in the new season? And where in the world has Claire Billingsley been? Tune in to find out!
