Podcasts about Health literacy

EPISODE DESCRIPTIONLisa Shufro is the storyteller's storyteller. A musician turned innovation strategist, TEDMed curator, and unapologetic truth-teller, Lisa doesn't just craft narratives—she engineers constellations out of chaos. We go way back to the early TEDMed days, where she taught doctors, scientists, and technocrats how not to bore an audience to death. In this episode, we talk about how storytelling in healthcare has been weaponized, misunderstood, misused, and still holds the power to change lives—if done right. Lisa challenges the idea that storytelling should be persuasive and instead argues it should be connective. We get into AI, the myth of objectivity, musical scars, Richard Simmons, the Vegas healthcare experiment, and the real reason your startup pitch is still trash. If you've ever been told to “just tell your story,” this episode is the permission slip to do it your way. With a bow, not a violin.RELATED LINKSLisa Shufro's WebsiteLinkedInSuper Curious ArchiveEight Principles for Storytelling in InnovationStoryCorps InterviewCoursera Instructor ProfileWhatMatters ProjectFEEDBACKLike this episode?

You get Sally Wolf.She's a Harvard and Stanford powerhouse who ditched corporate media to help people actually flourish at work and in life—because cancer kicked her ass and she kicked it back, with a pole dance routine on Netflix for good measure.In this episode, we unpack what it means to live (really live) with metastatic breast cancer. We talk about the toxic PR machine behind "pink ribbon" cancer, how the healthcare system gaslights survivors when treatment ends, and why spreadsheets and dance classes saved her sanity. Sally doesn't just survive. She rewrites the script, calls out the BS, and shows up in full color.If you've ever asked “Why me?”—or refused to—this one's for you.RELATED LINKS:Sally Wolf's WebsiteLinkedInInstagramCosmopolitan Essay: "What It's Like to Have the 'Good' Cancer"Oprah Daily Article: "Five Things I Wish Everyone Understood About My Metastatic Breast Cancer Diagnosis"Allure Photo ShootThe Story of Our Trauma PodcastFEEDBACK:Like this episode?

Catherine Richards Golini, Patient Resource Manager at Karger Publishers, is providing high-quality, accurate healthcare information to patients, addressing the need for trusted health information. Karger has a rigorous process in place to ensure the relevance of its patient resources, involving patients, clinical reviewers, and obtaining a quality mark. With the increasing use of AI and healthcare influencers, healthcare providers need these resources to have more productive conversations with patients and encourage health literacy. Catherine explains, "I will refer to the patient resources we publish. We also produce resources for healthcare professionals, as you know. But my job is patient resources, and I think we're quite proud of our patient resources in the sense that we have a very watertight production process that involves patients from the very beginning. So we're confident that we're producing relevant information that's very important, relevant to the patient community, and what they want. Accuracy. We always involve clinical reviewers, usually two for each patient resource actually, to make sure that the content is accurate." "We've also got something called the PIF TICK, which is a British thing, but I believe it's now spreading across Europe. It may even be known of in the States. And the PIF TICK is like a quality mark, a certification mark for patient healthcare information. We have to have our resources, our production processes, and our resources evaluated. When we pass the evaluation, and there are about 10 criteria with multiple sub-criteria, we get the right to use this PIF TICK on the back of our resources. So those are three ways to guarantee that we produce trusted, accurate healthcare information for patients."  #KargerPublishers #Publishing #Science #Research #HealthInformation #MedicalAI #AI  karger.com  Download the transcript here

In this episode of The Business of Wellness with Jaclyn London, RD, Jaclyn takes a deep dive into statements made by Robert F. Kennedy Jr. during his senate confirmation hearings for Secretary of Health, and discusses the urgent need for reform in America's nutrition policy and the lack of meaningful solutions to combat the chronic disease epidemic driven by U.S. food and healthcare systems. She highlights the missed opportunities exposed during RFK Jr.'s  hearings on Capitol Hill, and why sweeping federal regulations and RFK Jr.'s proposed strategies for improving American health ultimately miss the mark. Then, Jaclyn outlines five actionable policies to improve public health, including integrating cooking education in schools, reforming the Farm Bill to increase access to fresh veggies and fruit, incentivizing food service and restaurants to reduce added sugar, saturated fat and sodium in their menu offerings, tightening marketing regulations for products targeting kids & parents, and the most meaningful step in Making America Healthy Again and reversing the chronic disease epidemic : Getting nutrition counseling by a Registered Dietitian covered by insurance. Jaclyn also discusses the importance of transparency in the food industsry, how and why she believes that free market strategies and deregulatory policies can work by shifting incentive structures and focusing on strategic inititaives. She breaks down why bipartisan support is possible, and why these changes are essential for making healthier eating habits accessible to all Americans.

In this episode, Alyssa and Nadia discuss generational and cultural differences in attitudes towards medical care, trust in healthcare professionals, and the evolving role of social media in shaping public perceptions of health. Nadia reflects on how her experiences as a student and future medical professional influence her views, including challenges with navigating health insurance and understanding systemic healthcare issues. Alyssa brings a parental perspective, sharing observations on the skepticism and frustrations many face when seeking care in today's healthcare system. The conversation also explores topics such as self-diagnosis, advocating for oneself in medical settings, and the impact of health literacy on public health. Takeaways Generational shifts have led to a reliance on social media for health advice over traditional medical professionals. Self-diagnosis from social media can contribute to misinformation and confusion. Trust in healthcare professionals is declining due to systemic frustrations and narrow scopes of care. Advocating for oneself in medical settings is critical but requires awareness and vocabulary. Public health campaigns play a vital role in educating individuals about symptoms and preventive care. Future medical professionals must be prepared to address skepticism and misinformation from social media. Health literacy initiatives can improve outcomes by empowering individuals with knowledge. Systemic challenges, such as health insurance barriers, significantly affect access to care. Cultural attitudes toward healthcare are influenced by broader political and social trends. Open discussions about healthcare challenges can foster understanding and drive change.

In this episode of The Health Literacy 2.0 Podcast, Seth Serxner is joined by Paul Fronstin, Director of Health Benefits Research at the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI), to discuss how employers can enhance health benefit strategies and workforce health literacy.Health literacy is essential for enabling employees to navigate their health plans with confidence and ease.

New health, nutrition and weight loss trends are popping up daily on social media. Many of these fly-by-night trends are simply that, but a new study focusing on the platform TikTok found that these trends may have more of a hold on people than once thought. To expose the inaccurate information being extracted from TikTok, MyFitnessPal, the #1 nutrition and food tracking app, partnered with Dublin City University on a two-part research project called “Health and Nutrition Inaccuracies on TikTok”.  Part 1 looked at social media influencers and Part 2 looked at Gen Z TikTok users. Study findings ranged from determining that only about 2% of content being classified as accurate to Gen Z users trusting influencers more if they claim to be qualified dietitians.
