How Healthcare Works, LLC

 If you are a consultant, strategist, or executive trying to scale your professional footprint, you’ve likely been told that the secret to visibility is high content volume. Here is the truth: It’s not about how much you post. It’s about how clearly you articulate your unique, baseline expertise and your true, authentic self so your target network actually recognizes its value. I’ve built a professional footprint on LinkedIn. I didn't do it by using generic AI text generators to speak for me, and I didn't do it by chasing hollow algorithmic hacks. I did it by building authentic authority and turning profile traction into real equity. Next week on June 29 at 6:00 PM - 7:00 PM MDT , I am hosting the live, interactive masterclass: How I Built 22K+ Followers on LinkedIn (And Convert Them Into Buyers & Clients) . This is an intimate, high-impact masterclass where I am mapping out the exact blueprint I use to manage visibility, optimize profile architecture, and build genuine en...

My name is Jeanette Harrison, and I am the owner and CEO of How Healthcare Works, LLC. For years, I have worked in healthcare, education, consulting, and writing while building a business focused on helping people better understand healthcare systems, burnout prevention, and practical approaches to improving health and well-being. Six years ago, I restarted my life in Idaho with approximately $2,400 and my dog after leaving an abusive relationship. Since then, I have rebuilt my life through full-time work, consulting, writing, and entrepreneurship. Along the way, I earned a Master's degree in Public Health, published books, launched educational resources, and continued investing in work that helps others navigate complex healthcare challenges. Today, I am working to move from survival mode into a period of focused growth. To do that, I am launching a small capital campaign with a goal of raising $5,000 in working capital for How Healthcare Works. The purpose of this campaign is sim...

by Jeanette R. Harrison, MPH  Part of life is making mistakes. One of my biggest mistakes has been believing people cared about me when they didn't. I have spent years giving people the benefit of the doubt, believing they would eventually treat me with kindness, honesty, and respect. Instead, I found myself repeatedly dealing with manipulation, lies, control, and blame. When I objected to how I was treated, I was often told that I was the problem. When I spoke up, I was accused of blaming others. When I questioned what was happening around me, I was told I was "way off base." I've been very open about not wanting my sister in my life. I'm tired of the narrative that every mention of my family in any way is somehow an attack on my family. The other day, someone complained because I said I wasn't allowed to wear sweatpants to school. It was one of my mom's rules because she thought sweatpants looked sloppy. That isn't a bad thing. It's just a story....

By Jeanette R. Harrison I haven't written since I moved into my new apartment. That's right. I was especially blessed to find a new apartment, and it is so nice to have a beautiful home to live in. At the same time, it has been stressful. The day I moved in, I received a different bill than I expected. Since then, I have felt like I don't have enough money. You know what has happened since that day? I didn't get paid the amount I was supposed to, a client couldn't pay for a course through my portal, and a bill was unexpectedly paid out of my account. Last night, I literally lay in bed crying because I was afraid I was going to lose my newly won apartment after everything I went through to get here. Living in a hotel was not fun, and every day I prayed to God that I would find a new place to live. Now, I am praying that I can keep my apartment. I really do love it. Today, I walked around thanking God and the Universe for this apartment. I talked about how much I love...

by Jeanette R. Harrison Today’s gratitude practice is about wishing happiness for three people. Honestly, this feels especially difficult right now because I am currently living in a hotel, and if I am being honest, I do not feel like many people genuinely care about my happiness, my well-being, or my emotional safety right now. In many ways, I do not feel like people have cared about those things for the past six years. What I feel instead is that people expect me to perform happiness for them while keeping me emotionally at arm’s length. They want me to be positive, resilient, grateful, productive, inspiring, and emotionally self-sufficient so they do not have to feel uncomfortable about what I am going through. They want me to overcome everything quietly while simultaneously making me feel like I am too much if I openly admit that I am struggling.

 by Jeanette R. Harrison, MPH Living in a Hotel and Feeling Completely Alone I am currently “living” in a hotel. It is not anywhere nice. It is something I can barely afford. Having to live in a hotel during a holiday week is an expensive endeavor. Why am I living in a hotel? Because I cannot find a place to live. I have been looking for an apartment for over 30 days, and because of my income right now, while I have been working on rebuilding my credit score, I cannot rent an apartment because I do not make three or four times the rent. Or, I do not have two or three times the deposit plus the first month’s rent. Photo is AI generatd  I have one person here actively “helping” me. This woman has three kids, and she and her family live in an apartment. Someone had to cosign for her apartment, too. That is the name of the game lately here in Boise. Even for a room for rent, there were 10 applicants. The room was priced at almost $1,000 a month. That is over half a mortgage paymen...
