We’re not being dramatic when we say: the healthcare system is broken—and it’s especially broken for women.
In Episode 93 of The Fully Expressed Podcast, we sit down with Dr. Mariza Snyder to unpack a truth many of us know too well: women’s symptoms are often dismissed, downplayed, or flat-out ignored in clinical settings. But what if that “you’re fine” diagnosis is actually keeping you from feeling vibrant, well, and whole?
Medical Gaslighting is Real—and It’s Not Your Fault
Dr. Mariza breaks down the ways women have been conditioned to minimize our pain, second-guess our instincts, and defer to practitioners who often don’t see the full picture. We talk about what it feels like to be told your labs are “normal” even though your body is clearly not—and what to do next.
The truth? You are not crazy. You are not being “too sensitive.” You are not overreacting.
You’re just not being listened to. And that ends now.
Building a Supportive, Aligned Care Team
We explore how to find (and vet) practitioners who actually value collaboration, listen to your full story, and understand the nuances of women’s health. Whether you’re navigating this with or without insurance, Dr. Mariza shares practical ways to take back your agency, ask the right questions, and build a care team that gets you.
It’s Time to Trust Your Body (More Than the System)
This episode isn’t just about navigating broken systems—it’s about coming home to your own body. Your intuition. Your knowing. Dr. Mariza reminds us that healing happens when we stop outsourcing our power and start trusting our truth.
If you’ve ever left a doctor’s appointment feeling dismissed, unheard, or disheartened—this conversation will be a balm for your soul and a fire under your feet.
Listen now and learn how to become the fiercest, most fully expressed advocate for your health.
