Chile, this week we are talking about how to create equity in healthcare. Tune in to this episode to discover how racial segregation affects access to healthcare, the populations least likely to be insured, and why African Americans are more likely to be diagnosed with chronic illnesses.
In this show I will go into how we can work on improving current inequalities within the healthcare system, some background on healthcare coverage, and how to advocate for ourselves within healthcare settings. Later, I will speak to Trudi Lebron, a business and leadership coach who founded the Equity-Centered Coaching Collective, to gain more insight. -Xo Raw Girl
