Before COVID-19, Ginger's @kvsingh spoke with @EmpoweredPod about the need for better access to #mentalhealth care. Today, the demand continues to skyrocket. Learn more on how our on-demand system provides support for the millions of people around the world who deserve it.
Telehealth visits allow patients to remotely manage medical conditions during a time when in-person care is not an option for many. But even in pre-pandemic times, the U.S. has limited access to #mentalhealthcare, while demand for support increases: empoweredhealthshow.com/tele…

Thank you @emilykumler for highlighting these linkages. #systemicracism has pervasive & persistent impacts. The work any of us do to root it out will have an effect on multiple aspects of millions of lives - including the too many black women dying preventable #maternaldeaths

When you hear a person online tell a compelling story of a medical intervention that saved their life, do you listen critically? Do you know many are paid to tell their stories? This week on @EmpoweredPod we get into medical #influencers with @suzuppello empoweredhealthshow.com/pati…

The topic of the unregulated #influencermarketing scheme is fascinating. Where’s the line between word of mouth and sponsored content? Even newspapers seem to be blurring these lines in name of tight margins. Buyer beware has never been more true. Turn in @EmpoweredPod

@marika_lindholm, founder of @ESME_SoloMoms, an online community for solo mothers, explains how the pandemic has amplified single mothers’ socioeconomic vulnerabilities. Across dozens of ESME-hosted Facebook groups, the mothers’ posts contain the same undertone: They are scared.

Listen to @careygillam on the @EmpoweredPod to talk about her book WHITEWASH, chemical companies, glyphosate, and #agriculture. What's at stake when agribusiness put corporate interests ahead of public safety? ow.ly/CyrO30qkIeR ow.ly/q9At30qkIeS

If you care about #inclusion #equity #diversity, take 40 minutes to listen to this podcast with @DrLaurenP, a #40Under40 in #PublicHealth honoree who’s now leading @TIMESUPHC
How do we make the medical field more inclusive for women? “Just inviting and making a pool more diverse does not actually mean inclusion,” @DrLaurenP of @TIMESUPHC says. “That doesn't mean I feel included. That doesn't mean things are equitable for me.” podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…
