    This is amazing! Please play this daily until the election. This is so relevant to all females.

    immediately had to listen to interview twice. Absolutely excellent. Legal system, I'd go on the witness stand to testify how terrible a problem. I apologize, however fortunate I've been, because I never have had issue with the Medical system. You're right about faith... astounding

    Hi! I saw you on Oprah’s UA-cam show. I reserved both of your books on audible. I’m so excited!

    I am a woman, with a PhD, who has worked in biomedical science for 40 years. I receive the same sort of treatment she discusses

    Wow, the myth vs the lie. I have to listen to this again. I feel it, I did all the right things and was seriously disappointed on so many levels... made me mad that I spent all this time striving just to be treated like the thing I attempting to avoid by getting a fancy degree. People don't care of you have a degree or well accomplished, they see your skin color and then act like you don't belong. It is hurtful.

    I agree with 98% of what she says. But I think she had a doctor/ hospital of incompetence. I've encountered so many bad doctors. We must be forceful. I just yelled at a doctor last week to refer us to a neurologist because my mom has dementia, and he never recommended. And he was attitudinal. All women must advocate for ourselves, forcefully if we must.
