Becca Thompson

Let me guess. You clicked over here because something I said made you laugh, made you cringe, or made you think "oh thank God someone finally said it." Welcome. Pull up a chair. I'm Becca Thompson. Healthcare Content Strategist. Narrative nonfiction author in progress. (For those who've been following a while — I swear to God this book will be done eventually. We are in the home stretch. Ish.) And the person your compliance team would probably like to have a word with. I spent two decades in healthcare. TWO. Yes, that ages me. Yes, I get Botox. It's overdue. I started in sterile processing — learned the work, got bored, moved on. Became a medical device rep, which was hard and I got fat and it was a whole thing, but I learned more about sales and human beings than anything else I've ever done. The people I met in those ORs, conference rooms, and at scrub sinks have become my clients today and my dear friends. Most of them are smarter than me. Which is exactly why I'm going to say this: Your content is boring. And I mean that with love. Healthcare is serious work. The people doing it are extraordinary. And somehow that has translated into an entire industry of LinkedIn posts that read like they were written by a committee, approved by legal, and drained of every drop of personality before publishing. I get it. I lived it. I also refuse to accept it. I work with select surgical and healthcare companies to build content that actually sounds like a human wrote it. Four years in. The work is good. The clients stay. The other thing I'm doing? Writing a book called How to Be Corporate with Your Pants Down. Yes that's the real title. No I will not be changing it. I started this damn book five years ago. Got serious about bringing it to life again in October 2025. Cancer was a b*tch. Raising a teenager is hard. (And if you have a sweetheart angel child, I kind of hate you.) Doing all of it while giving corporate the middle finger and building a business from scratch? Understatement of the year. I document the whole unfiltered process every Friday at corporateish.io — the manuscript wins, the ugly cries, the overshares, and everything the "I quit my job and found my purpose" crowd conveniently leaves out. If you made it to the bottom of this without being offended or annoyed — you're my people. Pull up a chair. We're all still becoming. 📖 https://www.corporateish.io/corporate-exit-diaries
