What Matters to You: Reorienting Healthcare Around Humanity, Hope, and Connection

Published August 9, 2026

In this episode, Jason Wolf sits down with guests Anders Vege and Shaun Maher, members of WMTY.world’s Convening Team. The guests reflect on their journeys from nursing and quality improvement to leadership in the global “What Matters to You?” movement. Through moving personal stories about patients, families, and their own parents, they demonstrate how understanding what truly matters to each individual can restore dignity, strengthen relationships, improve health outcomes, support staff, and make better use of healthcare resources. The pair also discusses the role of leaders in embedding this approach as a guiding cultural principle—not simply another process—and offers practical advice for creating meaningful change.
