AUTOIMMUNITY AND THE GOOD GIRLS: Behind-the-Page Limited Podcast Series (Teaser)

Welcome to “Behind the Page”- a limited podcast series for my first book "Autoimmunity and the Good Girls: How the Permission to Put Ourselves First Has the Power to Keep Us Well" (HarperOne, June 2nd, Available Now for Pre-Order).   I’m your host Sara Hirsh Bordo. For the last 12 years, I’ve been a documentary filmmaker telling real stories of women and girls. I’m also an autoimmune diagnosed, lifelong recovering "good girl" and a recovering eldest daughter diagnosed with Hashimoto's.  For the first time, I’m coming out from behind the camera and the story I’m telling is mine. The story of what being raised to be good as a girl can do to our health as women.  Over the last many years, I have been speaking experts spanning science to soul, other daughters raised to be good and self-compromising as I was, and conducted my own research across 1000 autoimmune diagnosed American women. But I don’t want you to have to wait until June 2nd to read all what I think might be in service of you now. So I’m sharing a few favorite moments from my expert interviews in a handful of 15-20 minute episodes.  More about my book can be seen at www.goodgirlsbook.com. I will be donating a percentage of my proceeds from every book sale to the Society for Women’s Health Research. If what you heard might be in service of a friend or a family member, please share it.  Take care and I hope to see you next week for Episode One with Nicole Sachs, LCSW.
