This February, I want to share with you my heart, my journey and my passion. When I recently spoke at a Go Red event earlier this year, I tried to explain what it felt like to be in training as a doctor and see women patients not being treated the same as men patients, simply because doctors think heart attacks "don't happen to women."
This unacceptable misconception drove me passionately to be who I am today. Along with being a cardiologist and mother, I am a relentless advocate for women. I want every woman to live life to the fullest, with vitality, passion, purpose and a heart filled with all that she wishes.
Happy Heart Month to each of you. Thanks for joining me on the journey. I look forward to stepping into your lives and, I hope, making you understand that heart health might be easier than you thought.
Let's start with Step 1: Living from the heart. What's your purpose and passion? Let's figure it out together.
