129. From purpose to platform, with heart attack survivor and nurse Kisha Stewart

If you’ve been part of my community for any length of time, you know that health and wellness are a massive part of my life. So when I met this week’s guest, Kisha Stewart, I knew I had to have her on the podcast. Kisha is a wife, mother of three, nurse, heart attack survivor, and a national advocate for heart health dedicated to improving the quality of cardiovascular health care for everyone. Since her heart attack, she has conducted extensive research about the specific health risks that women, particularly Black women, face.

Along with talking about Kisha’s mission—health care equity and heart health education—we also talk about how she went from discovering her purpose to building a successful platform to scale her influence.

In this episode, we cover:

  • How Kisha went from surviving a heart attack at 31 to becoming the national spokeswoman for the American Heart Association (AHA)
  • What heart attack symptoms young women should look for
  • How to confidently advocate for yourself in the doctor’s office
  • Needed systemic changes to achieve health care equity
  • Practical steps Kisha took to grow her platform—including writing a book—that helped her scale her influence

Today, Kisha educates and inspires others to improve heart health through lifestyle changes and is a fierce advocate for systemic changes in the health care system to guarantee equity and social justice for all.

Listen to this week’s episode—it’s a great one!
