Summary
In this episode of The Venture Variety Show, Alastair Goldfisher speaks with Liz Tarullo, co-founder and CEO of Nolia Health. After her father’s stroke, Tarullo experienced firsthand the challenges of family caregiving — an experience shared by more than 53 million Americans. That personal crisis inspired her to launch Nolia, a tech-enabled healthcare startup that blends clinical expertise with AI-powered support to help caregivers manage the daily realities of aging in place.
We discuss why Tarullo believes “our healthcare system is at a breaking point,” how AI can act as a force multiplier without replacing human connection, and why new federal billing codes are opening the door for caregiver-focused startups.
This conversation is essential listening for founders, investors, and operators interested in how AI, policy, and human-centered design are reshaping the future of healthcare.
