With All Due Respect 36: Kate Johnson

🎙️ Welcome to the "All Due Respect" Podcast with Josh and Gray!

This week, we’re thrilled to welcome Kate Johnson, aka Nurse Kate, to the show! With over 15 years of nursing experience in critical care trauma, Kate’s journey through the highs and lows of the healthcare system has led her to advocate for honest, real conversations about health, wellness, and the medical industry.

We cover a LOT in this episode, including:

How Gray discovered Kate: From the early days of fitness Instagram to now, we dive into what makes her content so impactful.
The rise of preventable illnesses: Kate shares eye-opening stories from her time as a bedside nurse, seeing younger and younger patients facing severe, preventable conditions.
The pharmaceutical focus of healthcare: Learn about the moment that stunned Kate—a meeting where executives bragged that 90% of medical spending goes to pharmaceuticals.
Shifting focus to prevention: Why Kate transitioned to working with Blue Cross Blue Shield and later consulting for the VA, and how she began building her social media platform to share her insights.
Red flags in the system: Josh and Kate swap stories about healthcare execs cheering over profits, raising the question: Are we focused on the right priorities?
This episode is packed with raw honesty, deep insights, and some much-needed truth about the state of modern healthcare.
