We Are Human, Live!
Bring Tommy and his We Are Human cohost Dr. Tyler Beauchamp, a pediatrician, Medscape and MedCentral columnist, and Amazon #1 bestselling novelist, to your stage for a live conversation built around your people. Think of it as a fireside chat with heart: Tommy and Tyler host, and your special guest or senior leaders join them to talk about the stuff that actually matters, like staying human in medicine, burnout and purpose, mentorship, fatherhood and family, and what it takes to keep showing up. Funny, honest, and the kind of hour people talk about on the drive home. We can record it for your organization or release it to the We Are Human audience when the show returns with Human Content in Q1 2027. Your call!
