Key Moments & Themes

1. Scene Health feels different because it *is* different.
What began as a phone call about a new program turned into a trusted routine. At first, recording themselves taking meds felt odd. But that small act grew into a habit—and a relationship. “I like the accountability,” said Shavon. “Somebody is actually watching, and that made me show up for myself.”

2. Trust builds quickly when support is human.
“At first I thought it was Big Brother,” Shavon shared. “But then I realized—they actually care.” The team checks in not just with reminders, but real messages. Encouragement. A nudge to refill. A cheer when blood pressure improves. “It’s a partnership.”

3. Scene meets you where you are—physically and emotionally.
Members highlighted Scene's mental health awareness, travel flexibility, and ongoing nudges during life’s chaos. “Even if I was overwhelmed, they were steady. It grounded me,” said Janaye. “I didn’t feel alone.”

4. People over programs: Coaches make the difference.
Simone reflected on her longer-term experience with Scene: “They weren’t just monitoring me. They asked how I was. Hillary, my coach, was amazing. When I traveled, I still checked in—because I knew they’d ask, and I wanted to show up.”

5. This isn’t one-size-fits-all care.
“We’re not mechanical,” Janaye said. “Scene Health isn’t cookie-cutter. They ask what works for you, and support it.” From Facebook groups to Pay It Forward videos, members find their own way—and often help others along the way.

Advice from Members

"Just try it. What do you have to lose?"
The resounding advice: don’t overthink it. You may feel unsure, but trying Scene Health gives you a chance to regain control and find support. “You can outgrow illness. You can manage it. You can get your voice back.”

“This gave me power back.”
Simone said it best: “It affects your mindset. Scene didn’t just support my meds—they supported *me*. I don’t want to be on these meds forever. This helps me believe I don’t have to be.”

“Healthcare is hard. But when someone makes you feel seen, it becomes easier to try.”
