LifeSpan CEO Jeffrey Cary Talks AI, Well-Being, and Systemic Reform on K IN KLARITY Podcast

YOUTUBE — May 9, 2025 — In this episode of the K IN KLARITY podcast, Jeffrey Cary, CEO of Lifespan Digital Health, speaks with host Mezue Eneh about the challenges and opportunities shaping the future of healthcare. Drawing from his personal journey into healthcare innovation, Cary emphasizes the importance of listening first—especially to frontline healthcare workers—before building tech solutions.

The conversation explores how AI and machine learning can reduce burden and personalize care, but only if applied ethically and transparently. Cary also highlights the complex realities of data privacy and the cultural resistance that can come from poorly communicated or overly intrusive tools.

Crucially, the episode underscores Cary’s belief that collaboration, not disruption, is the path forward. He frames provider well-being as a system-level issue—something that must be built into infrastructure, not left to individual coping. Cary closes with insights into what sustainable, human-first innovation looks like and why it demands persistence, empathy, and a long view.
