Mentoring and Inspiring the Next Generation with Dr. Green and Dr. Conway

I sat down with two leaders in community healthcare, Dr. Lisa Green, CEO of Family Christian Health Center in Illinois, and Dr. Conway, founder of the I Am Abel Foundation. In this special Black History Month episode we chatted about how they've dedicated their careers to improving healthcare access and mentoring future generations. They share the pivotal moments that shaped their journeys, including how classic medical TV shows like Marcus Welby, M.D. sparked their early interest in healthcare.

Both Dr. Green and Dr. Conway were part of the CHAMPs mentorship program at different points in their lives, but their paths truly crossed about five years ago through the I Am Abel Foundation, where Dr. Green became a mentor and opened her clinic to young aspiring professionals. In our conversation, they discuss the influence of Black History Month on their work, the challenges and successes of community health outreach, and how leaders can work together to create lasting change.
