The Red Couch on the Road

Originally created as an internal space to share insights, spotlight innovation and encourage open dialogue, The Red Couch was designed to break silos and build stronger collaboration across Johnson & Johnson.

Today, it has grown into The Red Couch on the Road, a powerful storytelling platform that promotes authentic, transparent dialogue about the evolving landscape of healthcare. Led by Vanessa Broadhurst, Executive Vice President, Global Corporate Affairs at Johnson & Johnson, each episode reveals the people and ideas reshaping the future of care.

This chapter of the series explores the stories behind J&J CareCommunity, our global social impact platform that champions health workers who connect their communities to care.

Healthier futures are possible when we listen to and understand each other. Tune in and let these stories inspire you.
