Tina Valbh

Tina Valbh is an entrepreneur, healthcare executive, investor, speaker, and mother of two who has spent nearly 30 years building businesses, leading organizations, and mentoring others. After a successful career in senior healthcare leadership, she co-founded PharmaKonnect, a boutique consulting firm advising pharmaceutical companies and healthcare organizations. Her entrepreneurial interests also include hospitality investments, Marriott-branded hotel ventures, and co-ownership of Mahj Tile Haus. At 48, Tina was diagnosed with breast cancer. Her experience navigating the healthcare system she had spent decades working within inspired her to co-found Tina's Warriors, a national nonprofit that has delivered more than 4,100 patient care packages, mobilized over 2,000 volunteers, and reached women across all 50 states. Today, Tina is living with stage 4 metastatic breast cancer, but her ambition hasn't diminished. She continues to lead her consulting firm, explore new business opportunities, grow her nonprofit, and mentor other women. She's also invited to speak with major pharmaceutical companies and healthcare leaders, challenging them to bring humanity back into their decisions. Tina brings a deeply personal perspective to what she calls **The Great Negotiation**, the often-unspoken bargains women make between ambition, motherhood, achievement, and happiness. As a mother of two daughters, she questions what women sacrifice in pursuit of success and what the next generation learns from watching them. Her belief is simple: Success isn't just about earning a seat at the table. It's about how we use our influence once we're there, and whose doors we choose to open.
