In this compelling episode of 'The Health Feast,' we start by unraveling the multi-layered journey of Dr. Daphne Bascom. From her early days in medical school to her current role as a certified health coach and Coaching Team leader with The Vegan Gym, Dr. Bascom's story sets the stage for a conversation that goes beyond the surface.
We delve into the uncomfortable reality of financial incentives in healthcare. It's a system that seems more designed for profit than for wellness, a truth that Dr. Bascom, Dr. Rak, and Po dissect with unflinching honesty. But it's not just about systemic issues; it gets personal. Dr. Bascom opens up about the emotional toll on healthcare providers, offering a raw look at the often-overlooked human element within the medical profession.
As we search for solutions, the concept of community accountability emerges. Po shares his own struggles and triumphs, adding a layer of relatability and urgency to the dialogue. The conversation wraps up with Dr. Bascom, leaving us with seeds of positivity and empowerment. It's a call to action for each of us to take control of our health and, by extension, our lives.
Don't miss this transformative episode that not only challenges the status quo but also empowers you to be an agent of change in your own health journey.
