Episode Description
What if the biggest obstacle to your healing isn't your diagnosis... but the fact that you were never taught you had a choice?
From the time we're young, we're conditioned to follow the rules, trust the experts, and do what we're told. And when it comes to your health, that conditioning kicks into overdrive.
Dr. Katie Deming opens up about why so many people hand over their power the moment they walk into a doctor's office, and what it actually costs them. As a radiation oncologist who walked away from the system, she's seen both sides of this story firsthand.
This kicks off a brand new series on reclaiming your authority. Dr. Katie explores the hidden forces that keep you from speaking up for yourself, including the pressure from well-meaning family, the fear of being labeled "non-compliant," and the people-pleasing patterns that run deeper than most of us realize.
She also shares her own turning point, the moment a simple parable changed everything about how she saw her career and the medical system she'd spent her life in.
