On this episode of Navigate with Nadine, host Nadine Wilches sits down with Ken Huey, CEO of The Hope Group and Havenwood Academy, to explore trauma, adverse childhood experiences, resilience, and the systems that can help people change their trajectory.

Drawing on more than 25 years in mental and behavioral healthcare, Ken shares how his understanding of trauma shaped both his personal life and professional career. He explains why adverse experiences do not have to determine a person's future and how protective relationships, mentorship, and consistent positive experiences can help people build healthier patterns.

Nadine and Ken discuss the opportunity to move mental healthcare further upstream — from responding to symptoms and crises to intentionally creating environments that strengthen resilience. They explore the role of schools, after-school programs, community organizations, clinicians, technology, and supportive adults in building a stronger preventive infrastructure.

The conversation also examines the challenges of reaching people who cannot or do not access traditional mental health services, the importance of collaboration across behavioral healthcare, and where technology and AI may fit within the future of prevention and care.

Ken closes with a powerful reminder: change is possible, and you do not have to be a clinician to make a difference. Sometimes consistently showing up as a caring, connected person can change the direction of someone's life.

On this episode of Navigate with Nadine, Nadine Wilches sits down with Dr. Scott Neeley, President and CEO of Dignity Health Sierra Nevada Memorial Hospital and co-founder of HealthSpan Nevada County, to explore what it takes to move healthcare upstream.

Scott shares how HealthSpan is bringing healthcare providers, community organizations, local government, and social services together to address the conditions that shape health long before someone reaches a hospital. From food access and safe environments to social connection, physical activity, policy, and behavioral health, the conversation examines why healthier communities require more than simply telling individuals to make healthier choices.

Nadine and Scott also discuss closed-loop referral systems, fragmented healthcare data, shared KPIs, measuring population-level outcomes, and the potential to identify and address risk before it becomes crisis.

At the heart of the conversation is a different way of thinking about healthcare: hospitals will always play a critical role in treating illness, but prevention requires communities to build the conditions that help people stay well.

It’s a conversation about moving from sick care to prevention - and making health something communities can build together.
