Podcasts about mismanage their health

It can take 5-7 years to get a correct diagnosis for a chronic illness. Many people with chronic illnesses are misdiagnosed with psychological conditions and are prescribed antidepressant medications. A large scale awareness is required about chronic illnesses and their handling. Many are grappling with understanding their illness and are not sure how to handle their diagnosis and treatment plans. Further Advocacy is needed for doctors to better understand and diagnose such issues.   Susan Salenger: Sidelined: HOw Women Manage and Mismanage Their Health,   amzn.to/3P7jW2r https://www.linkedin.com/in/susan-salenger/  

EPISODE 236 - Susan Salenger - SIDELINED - How Women Manage & Mismanage Their HealthDON'T MAKE ANOTHER HEALTHCARE DECISION WITHOUT READING THIS BOOK "If men had cramps, they'd have cured this by now...""I told my doctors about my pain for years, but they told me it was all in my head...""My doctor removed my IUD without anesthesia because 'there aren't any nerve endings in there.' Boy, was he wrong!"These and countless other comments from women who've suffered at the hands of the healthcare industry are frighteningly common... but they don't have to be. Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health discloses how women have been marginalized and hesitate to take control over their own healthcare. But what's behind this nationwide medical crisis? Too often, women downplay or ignore their symptoms to avoid being "difficult," often blaming themselves for serious illness. The end result could be inferior care, which can lead to serious consequences.In Sidelined, writer and researcher Susan Salenger explains why women are misdiagnosed more often than men, and why their symptoms often go unrecognized or even disputed. This book teaches readers how to take charge of their health, make informed decisions, and leave their appointments with answers instead of just questions.Knowing how to advocate for your own healthcare can mean the difference between healthy outcomes and years of needless agony, or even death.This important women's health book equips readers with the knowledge, language, and skill sets they need to overcome the gender bias that is present in the medical industry and get the best healthcare possible.About the AuthorSusan Salenger was born and raised in Los Angeles, and for more than twenty-five years owned Salenger Films, which produced corporate training and development films and distributed them around the world, with her husband. Sue wrote the scripts and the workbooks that accompanied the films. Once her children had grown up and she had some time for herself, Sue took some anthropology classes at UCLA. Her final project for one of those classes was a study of women who had undergone hysterectomies; that study was the catalyst for this book. Sue's wonderful husband has passed away, but she has two fabulous daughters and four incredible grandchildren. They all live in Petaluma, California, and see each other often. https://www.susansalenger.com/Beth Silver - www.doubetllc.com___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/MindShift Power Podcast is for teens, about teens, and anyone who works with teens.

Through socialization and culture women are taught to take care of others and typically do not prioritize their own health.  Researchers did a study where they gave women a list and asked them to rank it based on need.  Children, pets, elderly parents, partners were all prioritized (in that order) over themselves.  After doing research on women post-hysterectomy, Susan Salenger was intrigued by the fact that women were intentionally taking a backseat to everyone around them.  More research and ten years later, Susan's book Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health, was published.  She dives into not only the historical relevance of women and how we view healthcare, but she also includes a full resource guide and tips for better managing our overall health and major issues that can arise.  This eighty year-old, 4 foot 10 inch dynamo isn't finished making her mark on the world.  Her next project is tackling menopause and the differences in cultural perceptions and symptoms around the world.  I'm telling you, this is interesting stuff!In this episode Susan Salenger and I discuss:- How stress interferes with our overall health - Tips for getting the most out of doctor appointments:     Be more succinct when explaining symptoms     Write all your questions/issues down before the appointment (Doctors usually                 appreciate this.)     Bring someone with you     Don't be afraid to get a second opinion     Do extra research- Women are prescribed more medication than men and are also making 80% of the healthcare decisions for families, but more dollars go toward research for male specific disease.- 85% of patients leaving a doctor's office don't understand everything that the healthcare provider said.You can find Susan Salenger's book Sidelined: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health anywhere books are sold.Instagram https://www.instagram.com/susansalenger/Facebook https://www.facebook.com/suesalengerhttps://www.susansalenger.comFollow Asking for a Friend on Social media outlets:https://www.instagram.com/askingforafriend_pod/https://www.facebook.com/askforafriendpod/Please provide a review and share.

As a woman, do you feel like you're in charge of your healthcare? As a woman, do you feel like you're informed about your own health? Are you confidently managing or are you unknowingly mismanaging your health? In this episode, Host Nancy Becher and guest Susan Salenger answers these questions. Susan is the Author of SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health, and examines the many ways in which women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare. Researcher and Author, Susan Salenger, describes how women, the medical gatekeepers for their families, are extremely conscientious about taking care of themselves. They choose their doctors carefully, visit them more frequently than men, and stay on top of all health information. Yet, women tend to inadvertently undermine their own health.

Sidelined  explores the barriers women face in getting the best medical care. It's sometimes so difficult for women to get an accurate diagnosis and the medical community often treats women differently from men. Even in 2021, gender bias still persists. Sadly, some barriers come from women themselves. Women often put their own health last, behind the needs of their families and illness often makes some women feel guilty for becoming ill in the first place which can lead them to make decisions they later regret. Her research revealed how conflicted many women are about the medical decisions they make. After extensive interviews and research, the book highlights her findings and includes a valuable resource directory that offers a variety of services to help women decide the best path to follow. About Susan:Susan is a non-fiction writer, an avid reader and a foodie, especially dark chocolate. For more than 25 years, she and her husband owned Salenger Films, which produced and distributed corporate training films all around the world. She was born in Los Angeles and, although she loved living there (except for the traffic and the smog), she moved up to Northern California to be with her grandchildren. She has two fabulous daughters, four incredible grandchildren, a dog named JD (Salenger), a cat named Max and, because she lives in the wine country, a tiny vineyard that produces pinot noir. Resources Mentioned:Sidelined: How Women Manage and Mismanage Their HealthPinot NoirConnect with SusanInstagramFacebookTwitterWebsiteThe podcast's hashtag is #nourishyourflourish.

Women are typically the medical gatekeepers for their families yet, are commonly not as diligent with their OWN health. Guest author Susan Salenger wrote the book "Sidelined, How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health" to change our internal conversation and make ourselves a priority. You can't be there for your family if you are sick or not feeling well. Over 80% of patients lie to their doctors and women lie more than men. That can lead to inaccurate and possibly detrimental diagnosis and treatments. And what's even more disturbing is that too many women don't follow their doctor's recommendations. Join Lauren and Susan as they examine: why she wrote her book, why its so important and how it's different from other books, why we don't listen to our guts or do the same due diligence for ourselves that we do for our loved ones, how not "seeming rude" to our doctors outweighs telling them what's really going on, the most common hurdles women need to overcome to improve their healthcare, how women should speak to their doctors, how to find the most competent doctors and advocate for yourself and tips for women who want to better manage their health and decision-making capabilities.

While acknowledging gender bias, Susan also writes a lot about helping women change this dynamic by showing them how to advocate for themselves, how to get past embarrassment, communication issues, shame and loneliness and proactively changing their approach to the healthcare system so they are less affected by gender bias.This episode will give you an insider's view into the latest links between gender and healthcare, gender differences in outcomes, approaches and attitudes towards self-care, second opinions and how women can change their approach to their doctors and the healthcare system.Full episode transcript, notes, quotes and links:https://themattferetshow.com"When (women) walk in the doctor's office, they're embarrassed, so they hesitate to talk about all their symptoms. 50% of women lie to their doctors, and 25% of that 50% don't even think that their lying is a problem. Not understanding that now that they've distorted what's happening, the doctors' chance of an accurate diagnosis are even less than they were in the first place. I was startled at the amount of shame that women feel about being ill. That took me aback."-Susan SalengerBe sure to check out Prepare for Medicare - The Insider's Guide to Buying Medicare Insurance.

Sidelined, How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health, written by Susan Salenger, 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 and explores why women are misdiagnosed more often than men and why they are routinely omitted from clinical trials. Sidelined is Designed to help women become more consciously aware and provide readers with the knowledge, language, and skill sets needed to ensure that women are comfortable advocating for themselves regarding their personal health. 

Susan is an author and researcher who wrote SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health. Today we will be talking about gender biases of the medical community, why women are misdiagnosed more than men, and why they may delay visiting their doctor or neglect to ask doctors the necessary questions about their own health, ending up in inaccurate treatments or unnecessary procedures. IN THIS EPISODE: Why is Sidelined different from other books on women and health? When creating focus groups, why did you do that specifically and did you learn anything different from the groups in contrast to when you interviewed women individually? I know the women in my life are much more concerned with health than the men. What do you mean when you say they have trouble getting the most effective healthcare? How much of a role does stress play in women's health? Why do you think that is? You mention that men and women talk to doctors differently. What do you mean by that? And does their conversation style interfere with their diagnosis? What's the best way to find the most competent doctors? How should women do their due diligence? From your research do you find women get better care from a male or a female doctor? How can women focus their visits so they can get more of what they need? And so much more!

 [Health] Did you ever stop and ask yourself, “why did I agree to that?”   In the newly-released book,SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health, researcher and author Susan Salenger examines the many ways in which women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare.  Salenger describes how women, typically the medical gatekeepers for their families, tend to be extremely conscientious about taking care of themselves. They choose their doctors carefully, visit them more frequently than men, and stay on top of all health information. Yet at the same time, women tend to inadvertently undermine their own care. They're so focused on members of their families that they sometimes fail to stop and ask doctors the correct questions when it comes to their own healthcare. As a result, they may end up with inaccurate treatments and unnecessary procedures. In this conversation, Susan and I discuss why women:Put others first and leave little time to care for themselvesAre too quick to put off their own needed care Are more concerned about offending their doctor than questioning their opinions/diagnosisFocus on the emotional aspects of their illness when discussing symptoms, yet when it comes to recovery, take the opposite approachFull Show Notes On The Blog HereGet your copy of Sidelined: How Women Manage and Mismanage Their Health Book HereSupport the show (https://www.buymeacoffee.com/QuinnM)

Hello bookish babes and welcome to a very special episode 45! This week, Allie and Meg interview their 2nd author with a book that hits home on so many levels. SIDELINED: How Women Manage & Mismanage Their Health by the amazing Sue Salenger, takes a very different approach than other healthcare books on the market. This book specifically targets the different processes that women go through when managing their health. With a perfect blend of first hand accounts from real women and the research to back it up, Sue is able to seamlessly identify why women often feel shame, put themselves last, and have to jump through hoops when it comes to their medical care. The ladies discuss not only the barriers to women receiving the healthcare they need, but what women can do and the available resources for better managing this problem. SIDELINED comes out April 12, 2022 and trust us, you won't want to miss it!
