Alan has a fascinating conversation with author and researcher Susan Salenger about how women's health is suffering and why women are more likely to take care of everyone else before themselves. Women even tend to view their health issues mch differently than men do. This is a huge issue that is impacting SO many families and workplaces, because it's impacting the women we love. This is a crucial listen for both men and women.

About Susan

I'm a non-fiction writer, an avid reader and a foodie, especially dark chocolate. For more than 25 years, my husband and I owned Salenger Films, which produced and distributed corporate training films all around the world. My new book, Sidelined: How Women Manage and Mismanage Their Health, will be published by She Writes Press in April 12th, 2022.

It explores the barriers women face in getting the best medical care. It’s sometimes so difficult for women to get an accurate diagnosis and the medical community often treats women differently from men. Even in 2021, gender bias still persists. But some barriers come from women themselves. Women often put their own health last, behind the needs of their families. And illness often makes some women feel guilty for becoming ill in the first place which can lead them to make decisions they later regret. My research revealed how conflicted many women are about the medical decisions they make. After extensive interviews and research, the book highlights my findings.

Sidelined includes a valuable resource directory that offers a variety of services to help women decide the best path to follow.

I was born in Los Angeles and, although I loved living there (except for the traffic and the smog), I moved up to Northern California to be with my grandchildren.

I have two fabulous daughters, four incredible grandchildren, a dog named JD (Salenger), a cat named Max and, because I live in the wine country, a tiny vineyard that produces pinot noir.
