If you've ever walked out of a doctor's appointment feeling dismissed, confused, or like something was missed… this episode is going to change how you think about your healthcare.
In this episode, I'm sitting down with Nikki Sapiro Vinckier, a former OB-GYN physician assistant turned reproductive health advocate and founder of Take Back Trust. Nikki pulls back the curtain on what's actually happening inside the healthcare system, why so many women feel unheard, and what it really takes to advocate for yourself in a system that wasn't built with you in mind.
If you've ever felt like you needed to be a "good patient" instead of an informed one, this conversation will show you how to take your power back—and why that matters now more than ever.
Tune in to hear:
Why the healthcare system is designed for emergencies—not everyday quality of life
The biggest gaps in women's health (and why they're still being overlooked)
How insurance models quietly impact the care you receive
The difference between "good" providers, "bad" providers, and systemic issues
Why you may need more than just your OB (and what other support to consider)
The truth about weight stigma in healthcare—and what should happen instead
What consent-based care actually looks like in practice
The most overlooked stages of women's health: adolescence and perimenopause
Why talking about perimenopause and miscarriage changes everything
How Nikki built a platform by speaking honestly (without fear-mongering)
The mindset shift from being a "good patient" to becoming your own advocate
Why your healthcare should be a collaboration—not a one-size-fits-all solution
The three things every woman should know about her body
How empathy (not division) is the path forward in women's health
