When Stories Heal: Women Navigating Uncertainty and Stigma in Healthcare
How do women find their voice when their health stories are met with silence, skepticism, or stigma? In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Dr. Emily Cripe of Kutztown University joins host Dr. Lynn Harter to explore how women transform private pain into public advocacy. Through raw storytelling and thoughtful reflection, Cripe shares her own experiences navigating uncertain medical diagnoses and misunderstood health conditions. Together, Cripe and Harter examine the communication challenges faced by women in medical contexts—from cesarean births to adult diagnoses of ADHD.
