The Healthusiasm Podcast
The Healthusiasm Podcast is about the future of health — and how technology, consumers and culture are reshaping it from the outside in.
Across every industry — healthcare, pharma, retail, tech, food, finance, hospitality — the same shift keeps surfacing: people are no longer passive patients. They're active participants, choosers and managers of their own health, well-being and longevity. We call that shift Healthusiasm, and it's quietly redesigning what organisations must do to stay relevant.
Most weeks, host Christophe Jauquet — health business expert, keynote speaker and author of the Healthusiasm books — turns the latest signals in consumer-driven health into something you can think with: GLP-1 and the new weight-loss economy, AI in healthcare, AI health coaches and wearables, longevity, women's health, preventive care, digital health, and the hospitals quietly moving into everyday life. Once a month, the full international panel gathers for a health-innovation round-up.
He's joined by Thalia Muses — the Healthusiasm GPT, trained on the entire Healthusiasm intelligence: the books, frameworks, blog archive and every past episode. Thalia isn't a gimmick. She's a working example of what the show explores — human and AI thinking side by side, connecting signals across industries and pressure-testing the panel's ideas in real time. The show doesn't just talk about human-AI collaboration in health. It practises it.
The panel:
Christophe Jauquet — Belgian, travelling the world. Health business expert, keynote speaker, author of the Healthusiasm books.

Plus guest thought leaders whenever a topic calls for one.
Streamed in 60+ countries, this isn't a trend report. It's a sensemaking session on where health, technology and human behaviour are heading next — and what that means for the organisations trying to keep up. Tune in, take what's useful, and start seeing your industry through a Healthusiasm lens.

Flying Solo: Brain Implants, Big Tech Health Moves & the Stuff I Don’t Usually Say (#48)
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
For the first time ever, Christophe flies solo — and says the things he normally wouldn’t.
A candid one-man episode: the health innovations that don’t usually make the cut, and the big moves that could reshape your health.
In this episode:
- The off-menu innovations: brain implants, ‘sound pockets’, IKEA, 23andMe, the NHS, Gallup
- Big Healthusiasm moves from Apple, Google and DeepSeek
- Why these shifts could change your health and healthcare for good
- The unfiltered take you only get when no one else is in the room
A solo episode, hosted by Christophe Jauquet.
Even the off-menu signals point one way: health is being reshaped from the outside in.
