Listening Makes Our Society Healthy – Save our mothers! Valda Ford, RN, MPH, MS discusses the disparities in maternal mortality and the problems when the birthing people are not listened…
Valda Ford RN challenges us to be curious about our health. Are you curious about symptoms you may have or when you feel different? Listen to this engaging, funny and educational talk to make us remain curious and expect to be treated as individuals.
Women’s health should be the topic of the day. Here Valda Ford speaks on why we should have a better focus on improving the health of mothers. Our entire purpose in the world is to provide small people who look like us in order to continue the society. If mothers are not healthy, babies aren’t healthy and we cannot have a healthy community.
Valda humorously recounts attending a high school reunion, dealing with self-esteem issues, and encountering awkward situations that lead to unexpected compliments and self-reflection.
Self-care is essential but the truth is necessary. Stop lying to yourself about blood pressure. It is called the silent killer for a reason. Learn how important it is to know your own health statistics. Require full information from your provider. Be your own advocate.
