Your Doctor Is Not The Boss Of You

When's the last time you lied to your doctor?Why do you do that?It’s because you don’t feel safe. You feel judged. You feel shamed. Sometimes, even blamed.Do you feel rushed?  Does anyone listen to you?  Lab work is like a bad report card—a problem that needs to be fixed. Do you worry what they will say or prescribe?  Are you allowed to disagree? It's typical for patients to feel unsupported and unheard by their medical providers.  Today, I want to talk about why this dynamic is so common and bring awareness to it.  When we become aware of it, we can begin to question it and then change it.Show notes:How to Work With Me: I offer 2 ways to work with me when you're ready to reverse your diabetes.  You can get it done in as little as 4 months.Egg Roll In A Bowl Recipe: I used sausage for the meat.  Fresh ingredients make it even better!  Cucumber Kimchi Recipe: Servings: 4-62 English Cucumbers (use regular if that's easier/cheaper)3-4 Green onions, chopped with white parts included3 garlic cloves, minced1 tsp fresh ginger, grated1 tsp toasted sesame seeds, crushed1 tsp sesame oil1-2 tsp Korean red pepper flakes (to taste for how spicy you like; can buy on Amazon)1-2 tsp salt1-2 tsp sugar2 tbsp rice vinegarMix all ingredients in a bowl and enjoy!
