Shot of Digital Health Therapy

A Shot of Digital Health Therapy is a meticulously unproduced podcast hosted by health tech founders Eugene Borukhovich and Jim Joyce. Born in the pandemic, therapeutic by design—oh, and comedy is still included. We dive into unscripted conversations with the people shaping employer benefits, digital health moonshots, and the broader healthcare system. From real talk to ridiculous tangents, we spotlight the builders, thinkers, and occasional troublemakers moving the industry forward. We'd love to have you join us.

Yang Su & Xing Su: Why the "Tesla Roadster" Str...
After decades spent scaling products for millions at Uber and Coursera, twins Yang and Xing Su hit a wall when their own grandparents entered the labyrinth of American senior care. Realizing that 80% of health happens outside the clinic, they walked away from the "software-only" trap to build Seen Health—a vertically integrated, brick-and-mortar health system that treats hospitality as a clinical requirement. This is a deep dive into the "Un-Silicon Valley" approach: why they built their own EHR from scratch, why they refuse to commercialize their tech, and how they are using the 50-year-old PACE model to prove that "high-touch" care can actually scale if you have the guts to own the pipes.
