Meghann Hernández

Consultant / Founder

Equity & access Survivor-informed Community health Co-design

Systems thinker, community builder, and equity strategist bringing a trauma-informed, survivor-centred lens to healthcare, policy, and organizational change. Meghann designs practical structures that centre lived experience, cultural safety, and access.

As Community Health Integration & Primary Care Network Manager, she led cross-sector partnerships and co-designed care strategies with patients, caregivers, physicians, and Indigenous leaders; supported First Nations and Métis-led initiatives; and facilitated a Patient Advisory Council. Her work is grounded in social determinants of health and guided by the sextuple aim.

Her dedication is rooted in lived experience: growing up below the poverty line and surviving multiple forms of violence, she moved from blue-collar roles into healthcare leadership without formal degrees, propelled by integrity and a belief that no one is disposable. She is now expanding her practice through death-doula training, bridging systems change with the sacred work of grief, healing, and transition.

Morale Emotional support Outdoor breaks Strategic napping

Named for Frida Kahlo — resilience, creativity, fierce authenticity. Our quiet anchor, she senses stress before we do, offers wordless solidarity, and gets us outside. Her standing policy: connection, rest, and care aren’t luxuries… they’re part of the work.

How we work

  1. Listen deeply. We begin with stories, data, and lived experience.
  2. Co-design together. Teams + peers + community shaping what’s next.
  3. Sustain the change. Embed equity, evaluate impact, adapt over time.
