Description

In this episode, Sue talks with Amit Shah, Chief Operating Officer of Virta Health, to explore how passionate leadership and evidence-based nutrition can transform metabolic health. Amit shares about Virta’s goal of reversing diabetes and obesity by centering its core values—putting people first and trusting evidence-based science—across every team at the company. The ways that this passion and commitment show up in how Shah and the company treat individuals exemplifies what Sue calls “walking around town marketing,” a key piece of Passionate Ambivalence.  This  one-on-one shares how Virta is revolutionizing diabetes and obesity treatment by putting people first and challenging traditional medical approaches.
