08. How to Save Lives through Data Analytics with Rachel Stuck

Published: July 28, 2020, 12:20 p.m.

Rachel Stuck works in data analytics for MU Health Care, which means this episode answers the question many of us have been asking ourselves for the last few months: What has it really been like inside hospital walls during the pandemic? We also touch on exactly what it means to work in data analytics and how saving lives can be done even when you work “behind-the-scenes.” And, of course, we touch on legacy, how Rachel approaches her pursuit of purpose each day on the job, and her efforts to create rising interest in women to the STEM fields of science, technology, engineering and mathematics. As she puts it, “girls really can do everything,” and she is certainly proof of that.

In addition to that, we toss out a few hot (but fun) takes on whether or not it’s “okay” to have a bad day in the customer service industry, what it’s like to give your thesis defense over Zoom during a worldwide pandemic, and why Chick-fil-A is seemingly the most popular fast food choice in America.

Lastly, we want to thank you for spending an hour of your precious time with us. If you're enjoying the podcast, would you consider taking a few moments to give us a positive review? We sure would appreciate it. And, you can bet your bottom dollar we’ll be back next week providing more engaging and thought-provoking content for anyone looking to optimize their own pursuit of legacy. Have a great week, folks.
