About This Podcast

I discovered something strange about women's health when I learned that people were offered rehab services and recovery plans after ACL repairs, shoulder surgeries, knee and hip replacements, yet women after c-section and hysterectomy were left to figure out how to heal on their own. The more I dug, the more I found out why. Here are some of my most intimate conversations with thought leaders, experts, and ordinary people about the business of women's health. These hold the lessons I learned of the consequences and rewards of making it public. Thank you for listening. ~Rebeca Segraves
