"I almost became a statistic myself and I couldn't even believe it while it was happening. But maternal mortality doesn't just tell us the number of women dying in child birth...it also tells us how well a country's healthcare system is functioning. It tells us the overall position of women in society." Anushay Hossain is a feminist journalist and political analyst whose work is featured on CNN, MSNBC, PBS, and more. Her writings on politics, gender, and race are published on Forbes, CNN.com, The Daily Beast, and Medium. Last October (2021), Anushay published a book titled “The Pain Gap” an exploration of real women's tales of healthcare trauma and medical misogyny with this meticulously researched, in-depth examination of the women's health crisis in America—and what we can do about it. Meticulously researched and deeply reported, this book explores real women's traumatic experiences with America's healthcare system—and empowers everyone to use their experiences to bring about the healthcare revolution women need.

When Anushay Hossain became pregnant in the US, she was so relieved. Growing up in Bangladesh in the 1980s, where the concept of women's healthcare hardly existed, she understood how lucky she was to access the best in the world. But she couldn't have been more wrong. Things started to go awry from the minute she stepped in the hospital, and after thirty hours of labor (two of which she spent pushing), Hossain's epidural slipped. Her pain was so severe that she ran a fever of 104 degrees, and as she shook and trembled uncontrollably, the doctors finally performed an emergency C-section.Giving birth in the richest country on earth, Hossain never imagined she could die in labor. But she almost did. The experience put her on a journey to explore, understand, and share how women—especially women of color—are dismissed to death by systemic sexism in American healthcare.In this episode, Anushay candidly shares her own experiences, and asks the most basic and fundamental question of WHY WOMEN ARE NOT BELIEVED ABOUT THEIR BODIES? And more specifically, about their pain. From the ancient Greek definition of the word "hysteria" following women around, to the point where she finally reaches out for help to relieve her pain, women are constantly dismissed and not believed about their pain. The bottom line is that women's lives really don't matter in America- especially the Black and Brown women. Women's health is not a priority. Jess and Jess feel like this is something we should talk about.To learn more about Anushay and buy her book: https://anushayhossain.com/Thanks to our sponsors:Lyssa SewardSupport the show
When we think of stand-up comedians, we don't really think about mindful masculinity and raising strong daughters.

But our guest today shatters stereotypes not only of the stand-up guy but also of the clueless, privileged white guy. The one and only Pete Dominick joins Anushay to spill the tea on his major life lessons.

What role to white women play in upholding white supremacy and racist systems? A pretty big one! Even though we tend to leave them out, historically (most) white women always stood by white men when it comes to social orders that place whiteness as superior to well, everything else.

One of the key themes in Anushay's book is the power of women telling their stories. During her research, Anushay became obsessed with the stories women don't tell and what we keep to ourselves. One of the most powerful stories she came across in her work is that of Tomeka Isaac who started the nonprofit organization, Jace's Journey after the loss of son. Isaac's story embodies the message that when women share our narratives, everything changes. How we view an issue changes. The season finale of Spilling Chai on the Pain Gap is a tribute to women who have the courage to share their experiences with the world to remind all of us that the life of every woman and birthing person's life counts.
One of the biggest messages in Anushay's book, The Pain Gap is that maternal health is that America's maternal health crisis is solvable. We already have the tools and expertise to ensure no woman dies giving life. Yet, America's maternal mortality numbers, especially for Black women and women of color, are not only the highest amongst rich nations but that number is increasing. Layo George, the creator of the digital community, Wolomi, is a nurse and entrepreneur who has developed a tech intervention to change the dangerous pregnancy and birth experience in America.
Anushay describes herself as being “obsessed” with motherhood in America, largely because of its constant cultural contradictions. The image of motherhood in America is so white, yet its Black & Brown women who are more likely to die giving birth in the US. We claim to worship mothers but remain the only industrialized nation without paid maternity leave. And what about the women who don't want to be mothers? Is it possible to do something more meaningful than mothering? The latter is the question at the heart of Theologian Erin S. Lane‘s book, Someone Other than a Mother. In this episode, Lane spills the tea on overturning dominant narratives about motherhood and inspiring women to write their own stories.
Anushay has been a long time fan of American lawyer, politician, civil servant, founder of Girls Who Code, the Marshall Plan for Moms, five-time author, Reshma Saujani. Saujani is a warrior for women's rights, using her platform to encourage us to raise brave not perfect girls and demand we pay moms in the workforce. Saujani joins Anushay to talk about her new book, “Pay Up,” a battle cry for working moms to finally get what their owed, and calls on companies and policymakers to do their part.
Women don't just face a pain gap when it comes to their health but we also have to deal with a “credibility gap.” In Anushay's research, she finds that women are not believed about their bodies period— whether we're in pain or if we've been assaulted or anything else. We are not believed. In this episode, Anushay speaks with author, Jaclyn Friedman about the crisis of not believing women, having hope, and why sex education in America is more crucial than ever.
We often hear the statistic that women of color are more likely to die giving birth in America. But how many of us know that Black women are 243% more likely to die than their white counterparts? In this episode, Anushay speaks witness Dr. Kanika Harris about birth trauma, Black maternal mortality, and the truth about America's maternal health crisis.
How does US foreign policy impact women's reproductive health and rights around the world? How does America import its domestic abortion politics by creating foreign policies that deny women access to safe abortion and a full-range of reproductive healthcare? Those are the questions Anushay asks this week's guests who have taken the fight for safe abortion global with their work for Population Services International.
The health care experiences of many women, especially women of color, are untold. In her book, “The Pain Gap: How Sexism and Racism in Healthcare Kill Women”, author and journalist Anushay Hossain shares her own trauma of giving birth, and explores the eye-opening experiences of many women – who were unheard and subjected to systemic sexism and structural racism. In honor of 2022's International Women's Day and Women's History Month, Priya Bathija, vice president of AHA's Strategic Initiatives chats with Anushay to discuss her inspiration and research behind the book, and ways we can empower women to share their stories in order to revolutionize maternal health care.

She is currently writing a book about the crisis of women's health in America. Mike Hayes has lived a lifetime of once-in-a-lifetime experiences. He has been held at gunpoint and threatened with execution. He's jumped out of a building rigged to explode, helped amputate a teammate's leg, and made countless split-second life-and-death decisions. He's written countless emails to his family, telling them how much he loves them, just in case those were the last words of his they'd ever read. Outside of the SEALs, he's run meetings in the White House Situation Room, negotiated international arms treaties, and developed high-impact corporate strategies. Over his many years of leadership, he has always strived to be better, to contribute more, and to put others first. That's what makes him an effective leader, and it's the quality that he's identified in all of the great leaders he's encountered. That continual striving to lift those around him has filled Mike's life with meaning and purpose, has made him secure in the knowledge that he brings his best to everything he does, and has made him someone others can rely on. In Never Enough, Mike Hayes recounts dramatic stories and offers battle- and boardroom-tested advice that will motivate readers to do work of value, live lives of purpose, and stretch themselves to reach their highest potential Mike is the former Commanding Officer of SEAL Team TWO, leading a two thousand–person Special Operations Task Force in Southeastern Afghanistan. In addition to a twenty-year career as a SEAL, Mike was a White House Fellow, served two years as Director of Defense Policy and Strategy at the National Security Council, and has worked directly with both Presidents George W. Bush and Barack Obama. Beyond his military and governmental service, Mike is currently the Chief Digital Transformation Officer at VMware. He joined VMware in October 2020, and leads the company's worldwide business operations and the acceleration of the company's SaaS transition. Previously, he was SVP and Head of Strategic Operations at Cognizant Technology. Mike also served in Chief of Staff and COO roles at Bridgewater Associates, the world's largest and most successful hedge fund. Mike holds an M.A. in Public Policy from Harvard's John F. Kennedy School of Government and received his B.A. from Holy Cross College. His military decorations include the Bronze Star for valor in combat in Iraq, a Bronze Star for Afghanistan, and the Defense Superior Service Medal from the White House. Hayes is a lifetime member of the Council on Foreign Relations, a member of the board of directors of Immuta, a data governance company, and of the National Medal of Honor Museum, and a senior advisor to Inherent Group, an impact investment firm.
