Why healthcare professionals need to start listening | Diane Gudmundson | TEDxFort Garry

Diane Gudmundson’s talk explains how “connection” is the real medicine that healthcare system has forgotten about. She explains that the journey of healing and treatment starts when people LISTEN and provides a framework for listening. Diane Gudmundson is a former Nurse Practitioner turned healthcare transformation leader who believes the real medicine is connection. With over 25 years in Western medicine, Diane walked away from a broken system to start something radically different...listening. Through these experiences, she created the LISTEN Framework™...a grassroots model rooted in empathy, community wisdom, and sustainable change. Diane now leads the Healthcare Transformation Mastery™ program and the podcast Make Healthcare Great Again, helping rebel-hearted leaders heal from burnout and build people-first systems from the inside out. She’s here to challenge the status quo...not with more policies, but with presence, story, and soul. At her core, Diane is a deep listener, a bridge-builder, and a fierce believer that the smallest act of care can ripple across generations. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
