Ever wonder if your yearly physical is really covering all the bases? Or why your doctor rushes through appointments without really seeing you? In this refreshingly honest conversation, Dr. Maria Palazeti pulls back the curtain on the medical system and shares why so many women in midlife are underserved—and what to do about it. From misunderstood lab results to the real reason behind your fatigue, Maria shares insights you won’t hear at your average checkup. We also get into midwives vs. OBs, advocating for whole-person care, and what it’s really like to deliver babies… until you deliver your own. This episode is your permission slip to take your health seriously—and on your own terms.
