We are

Doctors, healthcare designers, public health practitioners and product experts who work at the intersection of health and life to redefine how we live in this new normal.

Who focus on

fostering collaborations, through design, to help every one of us live our best days. We believe every aspect of our lives has become part of our health. From our homes and jobs to how we interact with our neighbors and the world, everything we do is part of our wellbeing. The COVID-19 pandemic has brought those life and health challenges to the forefront for many and increased the weight of existing challenges for others.

By partnering with

every part of our society. From individual action and community organizations to large employers and government agencies, each of us has a role to play in defining a new normal where we all thrive.

In order to

intentionally design a new normal in which we all live our best days. The COVID-19 pandemic represents not only a pressing needs, but a never-before opportunity to thoughtfully rethink every part of our world to maximize health and wellbeing. We must rethink education to not only be safe but to maximize the impact for every student though new methods of engaging. We can reimagine workplaces to be healthier both in terms of our physical health, but also in how we work and collaborate. Consumer brands can go boldly into new territory where their products, experiences, and services also improve the wellbeing of everyone involved.

Because

We must become healthists. Standing on the shoulders of the environmentalist movement, healthists are individuals and groups who advance equitable wellbeing in all aspects of life. Healthists are proactive, seeing the opportunities to make every part of our society safer, healthier, more resilient, and set up to succeed.

It is a collective Effort

Defining a new normal, one where everyone is set up to succeed, is a collective effort. It will take bold actions from every part of our society. And, just like the environmentalism movement, it starts with collective action. When we wear a mask, wash our hands, and practice safe distancing, we are already taking steps towards a healthier world. What can our community organizations, school, employers, and trusted brands do? What creative, bold steps can our governments take to help build a new normal?

These are the spaces we explore with partners and collaborators.
