Hey, DesignDashers! You’re going to want to settle in for this one because we’ve got a conversation that’s both eye-opening and game-changing.
We sat down with Lauren Payne, a powerhouse entrepreneur and board-certified family nurse practitioner, who’s rewriting the rules of healthcare. You know how hectic life can get—especially for us working moms, entrepreneurs, and creatives. Between soccer practice, client deadlines, and the million other things on your plate, who has time for a doctor’s appointment? That’s exactly what Lauren thought when she launched Clinic Concierge, a service that brings healthcare directly to your home. Yep, you heard that right—house calls are back, but with a modern twist.
In this episode, we chat about how COVID pushed Lauren to create a business that’s become so much more than just testing, the wild early days of running her operation from her dining room, and how she’s giving healthcare a serious makeover by making it accessible, personal, and proactive.
Lauren is one of those rare people who not only sees a need but also jumps in to solve it in the most brilliant way. We dive deep into her journey, how she empowers other women (especially moms!) to stay in the workforce while balancing family, and why the future of healthcare is all about convenience and care—on your terms.
So, if you’ve ever felt like you needed more hours in the day, or wished you could avoid those dreaded clinic waits, this episode is for you. Lauren’s got the vision and drive that’ll make you rethink what’s possible for your own life and business.
What You’ll Learn:
- How saying “yes” to solving small problems turned into a thriving business for Lauren
- The importance of listening to your audience and letting them guide your growth
- Why moms can have it all—with a little help from innovation and community
- The shift from reactive healthcare to proactive, preventative care
- How Clinic Concierge is changing the game by bringing medical services right to your doorstep
We’ve been blown away by Lauren’s ability to juggle it all and the way she’s giving moms (and everyone else) the healthcare flexibility they deserve. Get ready to be inspired, DesignDash fam—this one’s for you.
