The Healthy Edit
Welcome to the Healthy Edit! A podcast focused on — you guessed it — health and wellness, but from the perspective of HealthCorps, a national not-for-profit dedicated to teen wellness.
On this season of the Healthy Edit, you’ll be hearing directly from our staff, students, and other health advocates to discover the secret to what makes our wellness programming so impactful, inclusive, and sustainable and how you – just like our teens – can make health happen.
Since 2003, HealthCorps has worked in high-need schools with a mission to end health inequity by providing health and wellness resources to students, faculty, and families.

Safe and Healthy Celebrations | Episode 3
In this episode of Healthy Chats, HealthCorps CEO, Amy Braun welcomes Dr. John Whyte, Chief Medical Officer for WebMD (https://www.webmd.com/john-whyte ); Victor Cho, CEO of Evite and Kristy Gharabally, Senior Director of Marketing and Communications for Evite (www.evite.com ) for a lively conversation about safe and healthy holidays.
Celebrations and holidays are certainly different in 2020. The upcoming holiday season is coming at a time when most Americans are simply worn out with pandemic fatigue. What is traditionally a time to gather with family and friends, will now have familiar pandemic elements of social distancing, masks and fist bumps rather than hugs.
Dr. Whyte, Victor and Kristy will share their thoughts on the risks (and rewards) of holiday travel. They will also help us create holiday celebrations that are not only safe – you might even start a new tradition or two!
HealthCorps has free health and wellness resources for teens, parents and teachers find them all at http://www.healthcorps.org
Check out our Holiday Activity Guide and our Gratitude Wellness Challenge — both mentioned in this episode!
