As a coach who has worked primarily with women, I find that most of my clients are caretakers for others and often as a result struggle to care for themselves.

Today’s guest reached out about discussing exactly this phenomenon and what an eye opening discussion it was.

Susan Salenger is the author and researcher behind SIDELINED: How Women Can Navigate A Broken Healthcare System. Sidelined examines the many ways in which some women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare.

In her book, Susan explores the cultural and medical history that has conditioned women not to act in their own best interest. She offers insights into the gender biases of the medical community, explores why women are misdiagnosed more often than men and why they are routinely omitted from clinical trials.

In this podcast episode, Susan provides insight into how women manage their own health care and the hurdles we face in both the medical and wellness community. She also provides some helpful tips and perspectives that will change how you approach your health in appointments and life itself. Let’s dive in.
