From OMG to OK: Turning Healthcare Taboos into Memorable Experiences Elke and Max are using today's Voice of Experience podcast to get in to the how and why of modern healthcare marketing. With brands now increasingly willing to address body odor, mental health, and other previously-taboo topics in their product marketing, they conclude that it's clear how cultural shifts have given everyone a better shot at normalizing difficult conversations and creating better public health outcomes.

Check out this most recent VoX to get their take. 🎙️🎧Listen here: Spotify: https://lnkd.in/gfpGWGDr Apple Podcasts: https://lnkd.in/gBiT3U2y
