- Mental Health
Today I am sharing my conversation with my colleague Natacha Pennycooke. She is a psychotherapist who is doing amazing work and helping so many people in the process. I wanted to have her on the podcast to talk about self-advocacy - both from a medical perspective and a workplace perspective.
In this episode, we talk about
Issues and common themes that can come up for people when they are advocating for themselves in a medical context and a workplace context.
How to prepare for a medical appointment to get the outcome you are looking for
What to do if you feel your doctor isn’t giving you what you need
How to navigate perimenopause in the workplace through the lens of different intersecting identities
Finding community
Owning your worth
