Today’s episode marks the end of season one of the Gusty Goddess podcast. It’s been a journey and a labour of love. Thank you for all the support you’ve accorded me, and I will be back soon for season two.
In this episode, I will equip and challenge you to become an advocate for your health. I’d love for us never to be afraid to raise our voices for what we believe is best for our health. Nothing would make me happier than seeing more people investing in their health and doing everything in their power to make sure they have little or no pain.
Imagine having a moment to challenge a doctor’s opinion on what’s ailing you because you believe there is a better solution and are ready to pursue it. That’s advocacy! I remember when I broke my elbow. Doctors told me they would fix it with some screws, but my arm would never be straight again. I refused to buy into that and got a physiotherapist to work with me to fix my elbow and make it straight again. The process was painful but worth it at the end of the day.
Today I share some golden nuggets on how you can advocate for your health. Listen in and learn.

“You have to think about the cost of free health care if you don’t invest in yourself.”
