Ann Monis knows how to build under pressure. She worked her way through college, tested out of courses to save tuition and carried that grit into healthcare. Today, she leads a growing behavioral health organization while raising two young sons and navigating life as a clinician, entrepreneur and CEO.
In this episode of Working Healthcare, host Meredith Hirsh sits down with Ann for a candid conversation about leadership, motherhood, mental health and the business realities behind patient care. Ann shares why no MBA or leadership book can prepare someone for a missed payroll, a home-backed line of credit or the lonely decisions that come with leading a healthcare organization.
Together, Meredith and Ann explore the pressure behind scaling behavioral healthcare, where rapid growth can threaten quality and insurance reimbursement fails to keep pace with inflation, labor costs and patient needs. They also tackle the double standard for powerful women, the sacrifice behind career ambition and the importance of building teams around skill rather than ego.
Ann makes one point crystal clear: doctors need the freedom to be doctors again. When reimbursement shrinks, debt rises and administrative burden grows, clinicians struggle and patients pay the price.
Listen in for a bold conversation about grit, leadership and protecting patient care in a strained healthcare system.
