Summary

Link to Pre Order: Tackling Gender Bias in The Healthcare System. What Patient stories Teach Us About Implementing Systemic Change:  https://www.waterstones.com/book/tackling-gender-bias-in-the-healthcare-system/louise-hockings-thompson/jinty-sheerin/9781805018810   Description: Internalised Misogyny in Healthcare Have you ever been told you're too much? Too emotional, too sensitive or not sick enough, not convincing enough, or just not the right kind of patient? And have you ever walked out of an appointment with a female doctor feeling like that was somehow worse? You're not imagining it. This week, we're talking about why. We're joined by Sophie Lee, founder and CEO of Electric Peach and author of Beyond Palatable , a manifesto for women who are done shrinking. Together we unpack internalised misogyny: what it is, how it shows up in the consulting room, among our friends, and sometimes in ourselves. We explore why women are conditioned to police each other's health experiences, why dismissal from female clinicians can feel particularly shocking, and how we can start to check our own internalised biases. Sophie also shares her powerful perspective on self-advocacy in medical spaces, the exhausting cost of making ourselves palatable, and as a newly expectant mother how navigating maternity care has brought all of this into sharp focus. If you've ever contorted yourself to be believed, this episode is for you. 💛 Stick around for some beautiful inspiration to carry you through the week. ☕ SUBSCRIBE for honest chats on women's health, feminist issues, sisterhood & smashing the patriarchy, one cuppa at a time.  Enjoying the podcast?
