In this episode of The Entrepreneur to Author Podcast, your host Scott MacMillan interviews Hanna Boëthius and Dr. Verena Voelter about their experience co-authoring The Next Tango, a book that stands out for its truly collaborative approach. Rather than writing alone, Hanna and Verena teamed up as a patient advocate and physician, then extended the project by inviting additional contributors to holistically represent all five stakeholder groups in healthcare (patients, providers, pharma, payers, and policymakers. This diverse team brought together a comprehensive range of voices, resulting in a richer, more nuanced exploration of patient-centric, value-based healthcare.
The conversation highlights the unique benefits and challenges of co-authoring a book with many contributors. Hanna and Verena share how collaboration made the writing process less isolating, provided deeper insights, and ensured the final product resonated with a wider audience. They also offer practical advice for aspiring authors considering a team-based approach, emphasizing the importance of clear communication, shared vision, and support from both peers and professionals throughout the publishing journey.

Hanna:
Having lived almost her entire life with type 1 diabetes, Hanna has grown up with “the patient” as part of her persona. This has helped guide her life’s mission—to help others live a better and healthier life (with or without a chronic condition in tow), which she has realized through various degrees, certifications, projects, and positions as an expert patient voice.
Verena:
As a trained internist and oncologist, Dr Voelter has always seen her role at the
side of the patient. Since the publication of her first book, TangoForFive, she has participated in numerous conversations with interested readers and members of the 5P ecosystem on how to make this vision of cooperation a reality. Patients, fellow doctors, policymakers, and health insurers, as well as leaders from the pharmaceutical industry and life sciences, have supported her in breaking down silos and championing a TangoForFive as the holy grail to fix our ailing health systems.
