Author Susan Salenger joins the show today with a fascinating perspective on the approach women take the healthcare, what her research revealed about the challenges women face in our broken healthcare system, tips for being prepared for every medical appointment and much more! We also discuss how Susan has continued power lifting at the age of 81!! Susan Salenger is the author and researcher behind SIDELINED: How Women Can Navigate A Broken Healthcare System. Sidelined examines the many ways in which some women manage and sometimes mismanage their healthcare.Susan explores how women, typically the medical gatekeepers for their families, tend to be extremely conscientious about taking care of themselves, yet at the same time inadvertently undermine their own care. They often hesitate to call the doctor when they don’t feel well and worry that their doctor visit will take time away from their families or work.

Salenger’s research reveals how conflicted many women are about the medical decisions they ultimately make. Find Susan's book on Amazon HERE
