AWAKENING HEALTHCARE
Awakening Healthcare was founded by a physician (Ruby Shah) and a patient (Stephanie MoDavis) who shared the same vision for the future. The mission of Awakening Healthcare is to help recenter the healthcare system around self-knowledge and self-governance.
In particular, Ruby and Stephanie believe that the medical field is dominated by left brained (analytical and scientific) thinkers and have a radical under utilized resource in the experiential wisdom of the integrated patient.
​
The core of Ruby and Stephanie's mission revolves around the fact that a purely left brained process is devoid of holistic intelligence. Awakening Healthcare seeks to find a balance between the left and right hemisphere of the brain. This increases emotional literacy and creative outlets for patients to find meaning within and around their illness experience.
​
Awakening Healthcare achieves these goals by supporting healthcare workers, speaking at universities like Texas A&M and the University of Houston, and pioneering free programs and courses for healthcare workers.​
​
Stephanie and Awakening Healthcare are working on the implementation of the trained subjective experiencer, a term Stephanie coined, into a multitude of institutions and healthcare teams.
​
It is Stephanie's north star to have a trained subjective experiencer implemented onto every organ transplant team along with other complex management teams.
