Unsung Sacrifices: Why Do Women Sideline Their Own Health?

Ever found yourself so entangled in the health maze of your family that you've lost sight of your own well-being? We've all been there, haven't we? Joining us is Susan Salenger, a beacon of light in the hazy corridors of women's health. Armed with insights from her revolutionary book "SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health," she's here to answer the burning question, "Why do we sideline our own health?"   Picture this: women are the ultimate health detectives for their families. They're the ones cross-examining doctors, decoding medical jargon, and leading the charge toward better health. But when it comes to their care, they sometimes forget to wear the detective hat. It's like playing Sherlock at work, but forgetting to play him at home!   In today's chat, Susan and I dive headfirst into these murky waters. We dissect the complex world of women's healthcare and address the elephant in the room - why do women tend to downplay their symptoms and let fear of judgment hold them back?   So, buckle up for a heart-to-heart conversation that's all about empowering YOU. Together, let's decode the medical mystery, dispel fears, and reclaim our rightful place at the forefront of our health journey. This episode is more than a ride; it's a call to action for every woman to become her own health superhero. It's time to stop sidelining and start shining in our health narratives!   Connect with Susan at: susansalenger.com and on Instagram @susansalenger   Grab a copy of her book SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health on Amazon.
