  • Summary

  • Women have been told to “tough it out” for way too long - whether it’s period pain, childbirth, or something more serious. But why is women’s pain so often ignored?

    In this episode, Turia chats with journalist and author Anushay Hossain, whose book The Pain Gap dives into the sexism and racism baked into healthcare. They swap personal stories, unpack why doctors don’t always listen, and share practical tips on how to advocate for yourself when you feel dismissed.
