1297. How to Advocate for Yourself in Healthcare

Hey Heal Squad! After this week's conversation with Dr. Nasim Afsar about taking an active role in your health, we knew we had to bring back this episode. Because if there's one message Maria has learned through every health challenge she's faced, it's this: you have to become the CEO of your own health. In this powerful solo episode, Maria shares the mindset shifts that transformed her approach to healing, from finding the right practitioners and exploring naturopathic medicine to tracking symptoms, asking better questions, and learning how to advocate for herself. She also explains why keeping a health journal can be one of the most valuable tools in your healing journey and how small clues from your body can reveal a much bigger picture. This conversation is full of practical advice for anyone feeling overwhelmed, dismissed, or stuck when it comes to their health. If you've ever wondered how to take more control of your healing journey, ask better questions, and become a stronger advocate for yourself, this episode is for you!
