Ever found yourself shouting into a void, feeling unheard and dismissed, especially by medical professionals? Drawing from my personal experience, this episode sheds light on the heart-breaking reality many women face when their health concerns are understated or ignored. We start a conversation on the battle to be heard, dissecting societal biases like the gender pay gap and the dismissive attitude towards women's health.
Imagine the frustration of not being taken seriously by the very people you trust with your health. That's exactly what we delve into today, emphasizing the power of self-advocacy in a world that often fails to listen. Get ready to hear personal encounters that underline why it's crucial for women to fight for their health. Not just fighting, but winning. This episode is not about playing the victim; it's about reclaiming our voices and standing our ground.
We wrap things up by getting personal about my journey through a layoff and the fears, uncertainties, and growth that came along with starting this podcast. I openly discuss my ongoing pursuit towards a seemingly elusive goal and the decision to pivot back to the workforce. This episode is a testament to the human spirit and the ability to adapt in the face of adversity. As we conclude, remember that it's okay to ask for help and to create something that is uniquely yours.
