In this episode of Linked In Impact, host Krysta Jones welcomes Joy D. Calloway, President and CEO of the Black Women’s Health Imperative (BWHI), to honor National Minority Health Month. As a veteran leader with over 30 years in healthcare, Calloway discusses the urgent "survival and success mandate" of health equity in 2026.
The conversation explores the systemic phenomenon of weathering—the cellular erosion caused by toxic stress—and BWHI’s mission to move toward "pleasure" to ease this impact. A major focus of the discussion is the evolving narrative around menopause, highlighting how women are reclaiming their power during this transition.
