S2: E19 Taking Care of Our Bodies
from Empowering the Working Mom Podcast with Latika Vines · host Latika Vines
How many notices have you received from your OBGYN or Primary Care reminding you to make an appointment for an annual check-up? Have you ignored those notices? Have you ignored those phone calls and/or text messages? Christina Perez shares great insight as to why it is vital for us to pay attention to those notices, make our appointments, and be an advocate for our own health. In today's episode, Christina emphasizes on the need for working moms to make our health our priority. She shares that one of the first steps in prioritizing our health is having a doctor that we can trust and have a relationship with. Additionally, she expounds on the fact that our well exams are covered by insurance, so there should be no excuse as to why we should not go to our appointments. Christina also gives insight on why we should have a primary and OBGYN doctor. She left us with three main points: 1) go to your appointments (make them and stick with them); 2) go to your follow-up appointments (regardless if they are scary or not); and 3) put your appointments in your phone (so you can keep track of them and be reminded of them). We are paying for health insurance and we need to take advantage of it! Thank You Christina for your words of wisdom! To download your copy of the Boss Moms Can Do It All Ebook, click HERE!
