    • Mental Health

In this eye-opening episode of "From My Soul to Yours," Dr. T tackles a critical and deeply personal issue submitted via the Soul Box— racial bias in the healthcare setting.



Through the heartfelt letter from our listener Rosie, we delve into the painful reality many face: being overlooked and misunderstood in medical settings, a concern that disproportionately affects communities of color.



Rosie's experience sheds light on a systemic issue—how bias and assumptions can lead to inadequate care and dismissal of legitimate health concerns. Dr. T shares her own perspective and experiences as a black woman, validating the frustration and hurt that comes from not being heard. This episode doesn't just highlight the problem but also offers practical advice on advocating for oneself, the importance of trusting one's intuition, and seeking second opinions to ensure respectful and thorough medical care.



Join Dr. T as she provides actionable steps to combat medical bias, emphasizing the power of intuition and self-advocacy in navigating healthcare settings. This conversation aims to empower listeners to demand the respect and care they deserve, promoting a healthcare environment where every patient is heard and valued equally.



For those who've faced similar challenges, or anyone passionate about equitable healthcare, this episode is a must-listen.
