How can design improve the dynamic between healthcare and wellness?

Simplify

Distill information and connect ideas, keeping the most vulnerable users in mind.

Contextualize

Develop an understanding of the entire system before proposing solutions.

Listen

Focus on what's most widely emphasized as well as what might not be shared.

Iterate

Conceptualize and design for long term innovation over short term fixes.
